2 days ago 6

Vanja was engaged to a man she thought she would spend the rest of her life with 11 years ago. However, they started having arguments, and she couldn’t figure out what was going on until Vanja walked in on her partner making out with a different woman on a couch. It may have been like a scene from a movie playing in slow motion for 90 Day Fiancé star Vanja, but she needed years to bounce back from the shock of knowing her husband-to-be was leading a double life.

How Did Vanja Meet Božo?

Vanja Was On A Solo Trip In Croatia

Vanja is originally from Bosnia in Eastern Europe. Eight months before filming Before the 90 Days, Vanja took a solo trip back home to reconnect with her culture, her country, and her people to get her “groove back” after her broken engagement. Vanja went to Serbia, Bosnia, Slovenia and Croatia. She went to a lot of different cities that she’d never been to before and ended up in Split. While she got to spend a night in the city, she was bored and was swiping through a daring app when she saw a man she described as “absolute perfection.”

“And it was like, ‘whoa, my God.’”

Vanja introduced Božo by saying he was a basketball player who was very successful. She said she had never dated any athlete before and Božo was “very hot, like really hot.” Božo had a six-pack that Vanja wanted to wash some laundry on. It was an immediate right swipe, but Božo didn’t respond until she had already left the city. It was time for her to go back home from her solo trip, but Božo and she had started talking, and it continued over time. She felt butterflies in her belly every time she received a message from Božo.

However, she suddenly realized Božo was acting a little strangely. He was not picking up the phone and not being as communicative. He finally called Vanja to inform her he wasn’t going to see her anymore. “I’m seeing somebody here, sorry,” Božo said. However, a couple of months passed when Božo told Vanja he was no longer with the other woman and wanted to work on his feelings for Vanja.
