It was a love story that captured our hearts, but unfortunately, it seems to have come to a screeching halt. Big Ed, a star of the hit reality show “90 Day Fiancé,” recently announced on Instagram that he has called off his engagement to Porscha Raemond, just one week after popping the question at a restaurant.
In a heartfelt message, Big Ed explained that upon reflection and after conversations with his loved ones, he realized that rushing into this decision was not the right move. He made it clear that he still has nothing but respect and love for Porscha. It’s a mature response in the face of heartbreak.
Love, as Big Ed puts it, is a crazy thing. He admits that proposing to Porscha was an impulsive decision and not what he truly wanted in the end. Despite this, Big Ed is grateful for the support he has received from fans. He recognizes the whirlwind nature of the romance and appreciates those who have stuck by him through it all.
The unlikely couple first met just one week ago during a paid appearance at a sandwich shop in Florida. Porscha walked into the shop, approached Big Ed, and gave him a warm hug and even a kiss on the cheek. The chemistry was undeniable, and they decided to hang out the following night.
While Big Ed initially had no plans of proposing so soon, a friend’s encouragement and a paperclip-turned-engagement ring from the restaurant manager pushed him to take the leap. The impromptu proposal was met with enthusiasm from onlookers, with Big Ed confidently declaring his love and desire to marry Porscha. And she said yes!
Critics have questioned the authenticity of the proposal, suggesting it may have been staged. However, Big Ed assures his fans that it was the real deal. He firmly believes that he found his dream girl in Porscha and describes their connection as love at first sight.
This isn’t the first time Big Ed has found himself engaged. In fact, it’s his fourth engagement. He first gained fame on season 4 of “90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days” in 2020 and has since appeared on multiple other shows in the franchise. Despite his ups and downs in relationships, Big Ed remains one of the most popular and recognizable stars of the series.
It’s worth noting that Big Ed was previously married to Sandra Heckman, but their marriage ended in 1992 due to infidelity. It wasn’t until 30 years later that he burst onto the reality TV scene. Following his split with Sandra, he was engaged to Rose Vega before moving on to Liz Woods, his manager at a local restaurant. Their relationship was tumultuous, experiencing numerous breakups and reconciliations.
As Big Ed navigates the ups and downs of love, we can’t help but root for him to find happiness and lasting love. Despite the end of his engagement with Porscha, his positive outlook and resilience shine through. We eagerly await what the future holds for this charismatic reality TV star.
