What Happened to David & Annie from 90 Day Fiancé? 2025 Updates

When David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé in 2017, their whirlwind romance immediately caught viewers’ attention. Their relationship combined cultural clashes, financial struggles, and an age gap that sparked debate, making fans question if they could truly make it work. From tense family confrontations to emotional milestones, their journey became one of the most memorable arcs in the franchise. Nearly eight years later, much has changed for the couple—yet their journey continues to captivate fans who have followed every step. So, what has happened to David and Annie since their debut on the show?

Early Days on the Show

When David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan joined 90 Day Fiancé Season 5 in 2017, their story quickly captured attention. At the time, David was 48 years old, a father of three from Louisville, Kentucky, with five grandchildren. Just a few years earlier, he had weighed 350 pounds, gone through a divorce from his wife of 21 years, lost his job, house, and cars, and even suffered a stroke from the stress. He described himself as absolutely destitute before deciding to hit the restart button on his life.

He relocated to Asia and eventually Thailand, determined to rebuild. According to David himself, he and Annie first met on September 30, 2016, a date he later celebrated publicly as the day she entered his life. Annie was 24, raised in Bueng Kan, a rural province in Thailand. Coming from a very poor background, she had moved to Bangkok seeking work opportunities. Known for her cheerful and generous personality, she first met David in a bar when he heard her singing. David later recalled her voice sounding like “an angel.” He offered her a drink, and they quickly connected.

Within just one to two weeks of dating, David proposed, swept away by Annie’s warmth and humor. Their romance was fast but complicated. Their 24‑year age gap, cultural differences, and the Thai tradition of paying a dowry all added pressure. With David’s finances in ruins, he leaned on friends to help cover the dowry costs. On the show, he was candid with Annie about his situation, explaining that he had once owned a large home and cars but lost everything after his divorce and financial collapse. He admitted he had no savings, no emergency funds, and told her directly, “If you want somebody that already has a million dollars in the bank, I’m sorry I don’t.” Annie, while expressing her love, also worried about their financial stability and admitted she wasn’t sure how much he really had.

Despite those difficult conversations, they pressed forward with the K‑1 visa process. Before leaving Thailand, David and Annie had drinks with his friend Chris Thieneman and Chris’s wife, Nikki. Chris offered to let them live in his house once they arrived in the U.S., but the conversation turned controversial when he suggested Annie could cook Thai food and even give massages. The remark, delivered seriously on the show, made Annie uncomfortable and drew criticism from viewers, though many suspected it was exaggerated for drama.

Their last days in Thailand were also marked by a joint bachelor and bachelorette party. The night began joyfully, with Annie celebrating among friends, but tensions rose as David drank heavily. Annie voiced her frustration, saying she hated it when he drank too much because he lost control. Cameras captured him stumbling around looking for her, while she worried about whether he could show more responsibility in their future together. The scene underscored Annie’s concerns about stability and money, balanced against her affection for David. Despite the hurdles, they moved ahead with their plans, setting the stage for their wedding later that year—a turning point that began their transformation into one of the franchise’s most enduring couples.

Once in America

Once in the U.S., David and Annie’s challenges continued. At a tense dinner in Kentucky, David’s daughter Ashley clashed with him over his engagement, while his son Jacob also sat at the table and reminded her that she hadn’t seen their father in a long time and should at least be glad to see him. She accused him of putting Annie ahead of his children and grandchildren, and tempers flared to the point where water was thrown during the argument. Ashley said she felt abandoned, pointing out that David didn’t even know her kids. David defended himself, while Annie, visibly shocked, wondered if such heated exchanges were normal in American families.

Tensions at home also came to light when Annie had a candid conversation with Nikki, Chris’s wife, who voiced concern about David’s ongoing reliance on Chris. During this exchange, Nikki revealed she had only just learned that Chris was Annie’s co‑sponsor for the K‑1 visa. She was shocked to find out that if David couldn’t provide, she and Chris would be legally responsible for Annie for ten years. Annie confirmed what was written in her paperwork and admitted she hadn’t thought much about the long‑term impact, trusting Chris knew what he was doing. Nikki, however, was upset and felt blindsided by her husband’s decision, which added to the tension in their household. As seen on the show, Chris also offered David the chance to partner in a new restaurant as a wedding gift. But since the restaurant wasn’t open yet, the plan never materialized, and Nikki put her foot down: no more handouts. From then on, any support would have to be earned. These moments highlighted how David’s financial dependence on Chris strained his relationships in America.

Their Wedding

Leading up to their wedding, financial struggles were still evident. Annie found a wedding dress she loved—a strapless white lace gown—priced at just over $300, but David hesitated, unsure if they could afford it. When Annie attempted to pay with a foreign credit card, the transaction was declined, leaving her embarrassed. Nikki ultimately stepped in to help, ensuring Annie got the dress. Annie was overjoyed but admitted she worried about David’s ongoing money problems as they prepared for marriage.

David and Annie officially tied the knot on November 1, 2017. Their ceremony was modest, held in Kentucky with close family and friends present. Annie wore a strapless white lace gown with floral embroidery and a blush satin sash tied in a bow at her waist, while David dressed in a classic black tuxedo with a bow tie. Photos from the wedding show the couple smiling and sharing a dance, capturing a heartfelt moment that contrasted with the financial and emotional hurdles they had faced. Though money concerns lingered, the wedding day itself reflected their determination to commit to one another and move forward together.

Following their wedding, David and Annie remained in the spotlight through multiple 90 Day Fiancé spin‑offs, including What Now? and their own series, David & Annie: After the 90 Days. The spin-offs highlighted their everyday married life, Annie’s cooking adventures, and their joint efforts to support Annie’s family in Thailand. The couple also built a strong online presence, often connecting with fans through personalized video messages and social media updates.

Marriage, Parenthood & Cultural Traditions

David and Annie’s marriage has remained strong since their 2017 wedding. For years, they spoke openly about their hopes of having children, even as medical hurdles stood in their way. David had undergone a vasectomy more than 20 years earlier, while Annie was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition that affects hormones and fertility. Despite these obstacles, they never lost sight of their dream of becoming parents.

As their relationship matured, David often celebrated milestones with emotional anniversary posts that reflected how their bond had deepened over time. On their 5th wedding anniversary in 2022, he described Annie as his “Queen, Best Friend and Soul Mate,” praying for “another 100 years together.” A year later, on their 6th anniversary in 2023, he called her his “Beautiful Queen” and wrote, “I thank God every day for you as you have enriched my life, my soul and my entire being.”

David also deepened his connection to Annie’s culture. In David & Annie: After the 90 Days Season 2, Episode 4 (“Happy Buddha”), which aired on January 2, 2023, he honored her heritage by becoming the first foreigner to be ordained as a monk in her village. Following tradition, his head was shaved before he spent three days living with prayer, chanting, modesty, and fasting. The large turnout of villagers left him overwhelmed, but he later described the experience as humbling and fulfilling, proud to have embraced Annie’s family traditions.

With their bond stronger than ever, David and Annie turned their focus to starting a family. They pursued IVF, documenting the process in spin‑offs and on social media. An embryo transfer took place in late June 2024, and on July 5, 2024, they announced Annie’s pregnancy, describing it as the fulfillment of a long‑awaited dream.

On March 11, 2025, Annie gave birth to their daughter Minthirarad in Thailand. She weighed 6 lbs 9 oz and measured 19.3 inches at birth. Her name, meaning brave gem, symbolized the strength the couple saw in her as a Pisces baby. David and Annie expressed gratitude to medical teams in both the U.S. and Thailand who supported them through their fertility journey and safe delivery.

Shortly after her birth, Minthirarad was hospitalized with RSV, a respiratory illness. Annie shared emotional updates from the hospital, thanking fans for their prayers and support. Thankfully, the baby recovered with medical care, and the couple described her resilience as nothing short of miraculous. The family also began the process of securing her U.S. citizenship, since she was born in Thailand.

By September 2025, Annie shared another heartfelt update, posting a smiling photo of their daughter and writing: “When the smile is this big, you just know happiness is in the air. Our little sunshine has a way of turning an ordinary day into the most beautiful memory. Minthira sending love to everyone.” The message showed how much joy their daughter had already brought into their lives and how openly they continued to share their happiness with fans.
