Where Is 90 Day Fiance's Big Ed Now?

Of all the couples featured on TLC'S "90 Day Fiancé," Big Ed and his romantic pairings have gone on to spawn popularity of their own. Edward "Big Ed" Brown became a household name after his numerous appearances throughout the "90 Day Fiancé" franchise. His first go-around was on the fourth season of the spinoff series "90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days," where he shared a brief relationship with Rosemarie "Rose" Vega. Following this, he would appear on several episodes of "90 Day: The Single Life" and "90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?" oftentimes documenting his on-and-off relationship with Elizabeth "Liz" Woods. 

Since beginning his time in the spotlight, Ed, while still working as a photographer and interior designer, has primarily taken to social media. He has become something of an influencer, with over one million TikTok followers and 505,000 followers on Instagram.  Along with endorsing several brands and running his own merchandise shop, Ed has also become popular on Cameo and Memmo, where fans can pay to have personalized video messages sent from him or even chat with the reality TV star. 

No matter how popular Ed becomes on these platforms, it'll be hard to forget his time on the "90 Day Fiancé" franchise. But it is also his time on the show that keeps Ed at the center of controversy for many. 

Ed truly became big after appearing on "90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days" — but for all the wrong reasons. His first appearance saw the then-54-year-old travel to the Philippines to meet his online girlfriend Rosemarie "Rose" Vega. Ed was not especially kind to her, often mocking her customs and appearance, and he had major trust issues to boot. When it was discovered that Ed did not intend to have kids with Rose, she thankfully decided to leave him, unhappy that he was never upfront about this stipulation. 

While Rose was smart enough to never take Ed back, his later flame Elizabeth "Liz" Woods is a different story. On the first season of "90 Day Fiancé: The Single Life," Ed met 29-year-old Liz at a restaurant and asked her out. A series of over 10 break-ups and make-ups ensued between the two, usually stemming from Ed's virulent trust and control issues. On the "Tell All" Season 7 special, it was discovered that Ed was still talking to Rose, despite denying such rumors. 

The two still seem to be together as of March 2023, with a video uploaded on March 8 to Ed's Instagram showing the two playing golf. But if history has proven anything, it's that Ed's nasty habits will eventually show up again, leaving the two in a cycle of toxicity that will not end until Liz decides enough is enough.
