Did 90 Day Fiancé’s Evelin Villegas & Corey Rathgeber Celebrate Christmas Together After His Departure from Ecuador?

90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way stars Evelin Villegas and Corey Rathgeber are generating buzz as rumors of a split surface, following Corey’s departure from Ecuador after Evelin expressed her lack of desire to expand their family. The couple, who originally hails from Washington and Ecuador, respectively, began their reality TV adventure over a decade ago with the first season of The Other Way. They faced significant challenges, including a cheating scandal that nearly severed their relationship. After Corey forgave Evelin and proposed, the couple attempted to rebuild their trust, but old patterns resurfaced during The Other Way season 3, when Corey found himself unfaithful.

Despite their tumultuous past, Corey and Evelin managed to foster a semblance of happiness together in Ecuador. However, the foundation of their relationship began to show signs of strain during Christmas 2024.

During the holiday season, Evelin was left alone in Ecuador while Corey announced his plans to travel back to the United States for Christmas festivities with his family. Yet, in a touching gesture, Corey did fly back to Ecuador to be with Evelin, ensuring she would not miss out on experiencing the holiday spirit as he knew it. Their reunion was highlighted by the numerous gifts Corey presented to Evelin, a gesture that brought her immense joy. Pictures shared on social media featured the couple and their two pets arranged by a beautifully adorned Christmas tree.

“From the sea our family of 4 wish you a merry Christmas.”

Evelin reciprocated by extending Christmas greetings to her followers, declaring her love for Corey and expressing gratitude for making that Christmas their “best one yet.” In a lighthearted tone, she mentioned that he was undoubtedly her greatest gift. “Ps – our kids don’t like taking photos,” she humorously added, referring to their pets.

Will Corey Ever Leave Evelin Over Their Family Planning Disputes?

Despite their solid partnership for over five years, Corey and Evelin have fundamentally different views regarding parenthood. With two beloved pets in their care, Corey seems to crave more than just pet parenthood. His recent trip to the U.S. raised eyebrows, as it appeared he was still hoping Evelin might reconsider her stance on having children. While visiting family in Georgia and Mill A, Corey’s brief absence from Ecuador wasn’t the first time he had left Evelin alone, drawing comparisons to his past infidelity during Season 3 when he had an affair with a woman named Jenny.

However, Corey’s journey back to America wasn’t a reaction to conflict; rather, it was to honor family traditions. Nevertheless, his commitment to Evelin remained evident as he rushed home to celebrate Christmas with her on the 25th. This could potentially be the last festive occasion Evelin spends in Ecuador, especially since she is in the process of applying for a U.S. visa, aiming to relocate with Corey soon.
