Florian Sukaj: A Glimpse into the Life Beyond Reality TV
Florian Sukaj, a cast member of 90 Day: The Last Resort, continues to intrigue viewers with his enigmatic background. Married to Stacey Silva, who is 17 years his senior, Florian, aged 33, was first introduced to fans as a supporting character in Darcey & Stacey, which is centered around his wife’s sister, Darcey Silva. Their relationship spans a decade, but despite their long history together, cracks have emerged, prompting Stacey’s desire to mend their bond on the recent reality show.
Trust and loyalty have been contentious issues for Florian and Stacey. The couple has weathered significant challenges, particularly surrounding Florian’s past infidelity, which Stacey had initially overlooked out of love. Tensions escalated when Florian chose to socialize rather than support Stacey during her recovery from kidney surgery. Their notable age difference—Stacey is 50—may also contribute to their differing perspectives.
Florian’s Albanian Roots
Life in Shkodër, Albania
Florian hails from Shkodër, Albania, where he lived with his family before relocating to the United States in 2020. His journey to the U.S. began on a K-1 visa, a significant move that was documented in various episodes of Darcey & Stacey.
In a candid interview with ET, Florian addressed rumors surrounding his employment status since his relocation. He acknowledged public skepticism regarding his intentions with Stacey, but assured viewers that he was on the verge of launching his own furniture business, a venture inspired by his family’s history in the industry.
“Already I know the business how goes. I know the work. I’m not like learning right now.”
Despite the challenges he faces in establishing his career in the U.S., Florian has a rich skill set, including his previous modeling experience back home. During the interview, he also honored his late sister, Elmira Sukaj, who succumbed to cancer in November 2021. Florian described Elmira as a beacon of positivity and compassion in his life.

Their new lifestyle included matching condos, illustrating a shift in focus and lifestyle that both partners have adapted to.
