90 Day Fiancé star Julia Trubkina is impressing fans with her incredible weight-loss transformation amid sharing how difficult life has lately been for her. Julia came to the U.S. from Russia in 2020 to marry Brandon Gibbs from Virginia. His parents’ involvement threatened Julia and Brandon’s sweet relationship. A former bodybuilder and go-go dancer, Julia has advocated going to the gym over getting weight loss procedures. However, Julia has revealed she’s recently gained weight and the heartbreaking reason why it happened.
Julia recently posted a photo of herself in swimwear sitting by a pool. She wrote that she started taking care of her body “again” from February 2024. Julia added, “Almost 2 years of depression have completely knocked me down.” Julia proceeded to share three side-by-side photos showing her weight-loss transformation. Julia mentioned how she thinks the “result is not bad” but she knows that it’s not “ideal” and she can do much better. However, Julia added that she is proud of herself. She thanked her fans for sending her warm messages.
Julia told her Instagram followers she is grateful for the support they show her in “everything.” Julia received a lot of positive comments from fans and 90 Day Fiancé cast members on her post. Stacey Silva told Julia that she was an inspiration to the world. Evelin Villegas wrote, “Just like we all struggle we all can make it out of it, ” and told Julia that she was a beautiful soul and looked amazing. Jasmine Pineda told Julia that she loved her. She praised Julia for being the most supportive friend when Julia was dealing with difficult life situations.
Julia recently posted an anniversary wish for Brandon. She revealed that they had been living apart but didn’t reveal what led to them living separately. Julia likes to post cryptic messages on Instagram, but she has hinted at how things haven’t been well between them. Julia also had a hard time trying to find a job in America. She decided she could go back to go-go dancing, but Brandon didn’t want her to embarrass him by working at a strip club. Julia and Brandon also publicly clashed on the topic of having a baby.
Julia didn’t actively want a baby, while Brandon insinuated that he and his parents were trying to convince Julia to get pregnant. Julia had previously mentioned health issues she was dealing with, but she didn’t specify what happened. Julia could have been talking about depression. However, it’s only now that she’s gotten the courage to talk openly about it. Julia and Brandon’s divorce rumors are now stronger than ever since they reportedly filmed 90 Day: The Last Resort with other 90 Day Fiancé couples such as Jasmine and Gino Palazzolo.
