Who is Vanja Grbic?
Vanja is a belly dancer from Orlando, Florida, who joined the 90 Day Fiancé cast during Season 7 of Before the 90 Days. Off the stage, Vanja is a professional permanent makeup artist, a vegan baker, and a medical sales rep. She’s a “Jill of all trades.” While she joined the franchise thriving on the professional side, she explained, “When it comes to dating and relationships, it’s been a s**t show.”
Vanja is originally from Bosnia. She revealed on social media, “When my family and I moved to Orlando we were lucky enough to get an apartment that was paid for a month, 1 week worth of groceries, a coffee table, and a mattress. From these humble beginnings we have been able to build a great life for us. 5 of us came here with only $200 dollars and a bag of clothes.”
Why did Vanja and Božo break up?
Ahead of Season 7 of Before the 90 Days, Vanja met the Croatian basketball player on a dating app. They dated long-distance for eight months before meeting IRL. Despite gifting her a potted plant at the airport and telling her that he loved her on the phone leading up to the trip, Božo immediately friend-zoned her once she arrived, claiming that they were not dating. Even his friends roasted him for how he was treating Vanja, leading to Božo breaking up with Vanja once and for all right in front of them.
Who else did Vanja date in Croatia?
Once Božo called things off with Vanja, she went back on the apps for the duration of her trip to Croatia, meeting single dad Josko Luketin. After she returned home, Josko visited Vanja in Orlando. Weeks later, he called things off because he didn’t think she had “motherly instincts.” Catch up on Vanja’s full 90 Day story below!
Who is Vanja dating on The Single Life?
Ahead of The Single Life, Vanja told Swooon that she’s “looking forward to a love that feels easy and supportive.” She explained, “I want something real, emotionally mature, and aligned with my values.” During the preview for The Single Life, Vanja told viewers, “I’m starting to wonder after all the searching if the guy for me has been right in front of me the entire time.” Sounds like Vanja has her eyes on someone from her life in Orlando!
