The 90 Day Fiancé franchise is no stranger to scandal, but few stories have sent chills down the fandom’s spine quite like that of Geoffrey Paschel. Now, the dark reality of his crimes is moving from the courtroom to the big screen as Blumhouse Television prepares to feature his chilling case in the upcoming season of Netflix’s Worst Ex Ever.
Geoffrey Paschel rose to fame during Season 4 of Before the 90 Days, but his TV «romance» was quickly overshadowed by a horrific criminal investigation.
Paschel was ultimately found guilty of aggravated kidnapping, domestic assault, and interference with emergency calls involving his ex-fiancée. The nature of the attack was so gruesome that the court sentenced him to 18 years in prison without the possibility of parole.
A Failed Legal Battle and a Loyal Partner Despite the mountain of evidence, Paschel has consistently fought his sentence. He even made the shocking claim that his ex-fiancée’s injuries were «self-inflicted»—an accusation the court dismissed as completely baseless. Throughout the ordeal, his 90 Day partner, Varya Malina, has remained his most vocal supporter, managing his affairs and claiming his innocence despite massive public backlash and the dismissal of his latest appeals.
The Blumhouse Deep Dive The infamy surrounding Paschel has now caught the attention of Blumhouse producers. Season 2 of Worst Ex Ever will dedicate an episode to Paschel’s conviction, using the show’s signature style of gripping testimonials, startling body-cam footage, and animated reenactments to expose the betrayal and violence that led to his 18-year sentence.
The series aims to «expose some of the most monstrous relationships you’ll ever encounter,» and the 90 Day Fiancé community is already flooding fan forums with discussions. Many are curious—and others furious—to see the «darker side» of the man they once saw on their TV screens looking for love.
Save the Date Worst Ex Ever Season 2 is set to launch exclusively on Netflix on May 6. The trailer has already garnered massive viewership, proving that even from behind bars, Geoffrey Paschel remains one of the most talked-about figures in reality TV history.
