On 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 3, Steven "with a V" Johnston is arguably the most detested cast member, and he shares some major similarities with another notorious franchise villain, Andrew Kenton from 90 Day Fiancé season 8. Fans of the franchise have been comparing the two men because of the way that they've treated their partners during their respective seasons. Relationships aside, both cast members have some personality traits in common.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 3 viewers found Steven's quirky behavior endearing at first, but quickly began to dislike him because of the lies that he told to his Russian girlfriend. Alina. Fans of the show also find him very hypocritical when it comes to his relationship. The season shows Salt Lake City, Utah resident Steven flying to Turkey to live with Alina because neither one of them can enter the other's country due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Although Alina and Steven previously discussed getting married, when the couple discovered that they would have to wed ASAP in order to live in Turkey together, Steven confessed that he wasn't ready to tie the knot. To add insult to injury, he also said he'd been going on dates with other women while in a long-distance relationship with Alina. Steven even admitted to sleeping with women while dating her. This shocked viewers, because Steven had told Alina he was a virgin. He also originally booked them different places to stay in Turkey, before she protested. He did this because he was adamant about not sleeping with Alina before they were married, due to Steven's Mormon religion.
Perhaps the biggest similarity between Steven and Andrew is the fact that they both expect their partners to go through a lot without making sacrifices themselves. Steven expects Alina to conform to his way of life by giving up coffee and wine. He also wants her to get baptized, but freely goes against the religion he wants her to join. He's a Mormon who had premarital sex with five women. While watching Andrew and Alina make plans to meet up in a country that was new to both of them, die-hard 90 Day Fiancé fans were quickly reminded of California-born Andrew and Frenchwoman Amira.
Andrew and Amira made plans to meet in Mexico because neither could travel to the other's country during the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the season, Andrew seemed sure that Mexican authorities would allow a French citizen to enter. However, Amira was detained at the airport for three days. Due to that problem, Andrew took their planned two-week vacation in Mexico without her. Amira had to travel much farther than Andrew to get to Mexico. Following that ordeal, he asked her to fly to Serbia to quarantine, and then fly to the U.S. to meet up with him. Andrew said he would not be able to meet her in Serbia because he'd already used up his vacation time at work during the trip to Mexico.
In Steven's case, he expects Alina to be pure and wants to practice abstinence when he’s with her. He even expected her to sleep in a hotel in Turkey alone while he slept in a hostel. This seemed very strange to viewers, as neither person had been to the country before. Fans feel that she should have been more protective of Alina, rather than planning to leave her all alone at night. It's also quite a red flag that he slept around with other women at the beginning of their relationship.
Steven and Andrew hide behind pure personalities. Steven claims to follow the Mormon religion, and Andrew works at a daycare. A more surface-level similarity that the two have is fawning over their partners and overusing the word. "baby." They use these tactics more when they are trying to get their partners to do something extravagant.
Fans on a Reddit thread pointed out their similarities. Speaking about Steven and Alina, one franchise fan shared that they felt Steven was going to become another Andrew and wanted Alina to run away from the Mormon man. Someone else said that Steven and Alina were like a sequel to Andrew and Amira. Another commenter felt that Steven will be considered creepier than Andrew by the end of his TOW season. So far in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 3, the similarities between the two men are almost undeniable. Andrew and Amira ended up breaking up during their season. Viewers will have to keep watching to see if Steven and Alina are also destined to call it quits.
