90 Day Fiancé fans just discovered that Mark and Nikki Shoemaker are getting divorced, and many viewers are celebrating the end of their marriage.

Mark And Nikki Shoemaker In 90 Day Fiance

90 Day Fiancé fans had been kept in the dark about Mark and Nikki Shoemaker since they disappeared from the spotlight in 2015, but many viewers are now celebrating the news that they are divorcing. Mark and Nikki notoriously disappeared from social media after they tried to sue TLC before they ended up dropping the lawsuit. Many viewers are now thrilled to see that Mark and Nikki have separated.

Mark and Nikki shocked franchise fans and became viral worldwide due to their alarming age difference. Mark is 39-years older than then 19-year-old Nikki, an age gap that many people found to be unjustifiable. Mark was extremely controlling of the young Filipina teen, who was younger than all of Mark's adult children. Viewers felt uncomfortable watching Mark boss Nikki around, such as banning her from touching his car windows and forcing her to wear his daughter's old clothing. Many viewers have since worried about Nikki and attempted to checkup on her.

Franchise fans received a relationship update this week when it was discovered that Mark filed for divorced from Nikki on March 2 in an open case. Instagram reality TV fan account @fraudedmedia shared the news about the separation so that 90 Day Fiancé fans could weigh in. Many commenters are eager that the couple is separating, since Nikki's safety has been a major concern among viewers. "Omgg Nikki is alive and freeee🔥❤️," one commenter wrote while others wished the young woman the best. Audiences are also hoping to hear more about Mark and Nikki's marriage, perhaps from Mark's daughter. "I hope Mark's daughter can spill some tea on her tiktok 😆," another commenter wrote.

While viewers are happy that Mark and Nikki are getting divorced, few are surprised to hear that their relationship ended. Some viewers are only surprised to hear that the duo stayed together for so long. "Wow that actually lasted a long time," one commenter noted. "The only thing I'm surprised about this is they didn't get divorced sooner lol," another commenter agreed. Other viewers were shocked that it was Mark who was leaving Nikki, as many thought that she would have been the one to leave him. "Wait, he's the one who asked for the divorce??? Did she get too old for him?" one commenter asked. "Mark remains my least favorite cast member of all time. Such a creeper," another commenter wrote.

Though many 90 Day Fiancé fans hope to see international romances work out, the uncomfortable relationship between Mark and Nikki was not supported by viewers. Therefore many franchise fans are thrilled to hear that the relationship has ended, which might mean that Nikki can move on with her life and find a man who also wants to have children. Mark's adult daughter Elise has also weighed in on the separation and made it clear that her father is not in her life. She also added that, like 90 Day Fiancé fans, she is very much not surprised to hear about the split.
