Late ‘90 Day Fiance' Star David Murphey's Family Sells Off His Biggest Asset for 6-Figure Sum
90 Day Fiance star David Murphey's Las Vegas home was sold off months after his tragic death due to cancer, In Touch can exclusively report. On May 23, David's sister Robyn Polinsky, who was appointed administrator of his estate, informed a Nevada judge about the sale. The most valuable asset that David left behind was his three-bedroom, three-bathroom, 1,535-square-foot home. He purchased the property for $190,325 in 2004. Robyn explained she found a buyer who offered $335,000 for the home. She asked the court to approve the sale. As In Touch previously reported, David died on December 11, 2024, at the age of 66. In court documents, his family described him as a 'single, unmarried man with no children, either living or deceased.' Robyn said David's parents had both passed, along with their sister, Linda Murphey. Robyn said the only beneficiaries of David's estate were her and their other sister, Cheryl Hastings. David did not leave behind a will, his sister claimed. 'Due inquiry and search have been made to ascertain if [David] left a Last Will and Testament, or some other instrument dispositive of his estate, but none has been found and, according to [Robyn's] best knowledge, information, and belief, [David] died interstate,' her petition to be named administrator read. Robyn said David had personal and real property worth over $300,000. David's sister also told the court the reality star had a business in Montana named Daves Nomadic Life. She said David owned a 2023 Cornerstone 45-B motor vehicle, which was apart of the business. Her petition stated, 'It is in the best interest of the estate, and it is necessary that the administrator have authority to continue the operation of such company and to have authority to access bank accounts, receive payments and pay bills, execute agreements, contracts and other legal documents on behalf of the company and to liquidate and dispose of the motor vehicle.' 'All liquid assets of the estate should be placed in an attorney trust account, pending further order of this court,' Robyn's petition read. According to David's death certificate, obtained by In Touch, the medical examiner listed his cause of death as cardiac arrhythmia and hypertensive cardiovascular disease. David's death was listed as being 'natural.' TMZ reported the reality star had been battling liver cancer for over a year and had over 13 surgeries before his death. After his death, David's family released a statement about his life. The family said, 'David was a veteran, small business owner, and software engineer. He had recently retired from the Clark County Treasurer's office in Nevada, having also worked for H&R Block and IGT.' The statement continued, 'He was also well known for his time as a cast member on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. His time on the show allowed him to connect with viewers, see the world, and share his experiences with his thousands of followers on Instagram.' As In Touch previously reported, David first appeared on season 4 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, where he introduced viewers to his Ukrainian girlfriend, Lana. David eventually proposed to Lana, but the relationship fizzled out before they walked down the aisle.

Who Was Ben Rathbun? All About 90 Day Fiancé Star and His Cancer Battle as He Passes Away at 55
Trigger Warning: This article contains mention of an individual's death. Ben Rathbun, known for his appearance on the reality TV show 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, has passed away at the age of 55. He died at his home in Greencastle, Indiana, on May 19, surrounded by his family. Rathbun had been fighting stage 4 stomach cancer, which was diagnosed late last year. Ben Rathbun became a familiar face to 90 Day Fiancé fans during season 5 of Before the 90 Days. At the time, he was a 52-year-old father of four. Rathbun's story centered on his online relationship with Mahogany Roca, a 22-year-old woman from Peru. The show follows couples who meet online and apply for a K-1 visa, giving them 90 days to marry after entering the U.S. Initially, some viewers and even Rathbun's own family worried that Mahogany might be catfishing him. She had refused to take video calls, which made fans suspicious. Despite doubts, the couple eventually met in Peru and got married. Rathbun shared on the spinoff 90 Day Diaries in February 2024, 'Our civil ceremony was just brilliant; I could not believe how beautiful it was.' He added, 'But we are still planning on having a religious ceremony.' Ben and Mahogany confirmed their engagement in a YouTube video in 2022, filmed during Rathbun's trip to Peru. The couple appeared together on 90 Day Diaries and revealed that they had already married months earlier. Rathbun spoke openly about the challenges they were facing, sharing that they were going through a difficult transition. He mentioned that he had been without a steady job for about six months and that bills had been piling up, making things very tight. He said he was doing everything he could to pay the bills and save for his next trip to Peru. At the time of Rathbun's death, the couple were reportedly still together. Ben Rathbun's life also included some legal difficulties. In 2020, he was arrested for operating a vehicle while under the influence and driving with a suspended license. He was sentenced to 18 months probation in January 2021. In 2022, Rathbun missed a probation violation hearing, which led to a bench warrant for his arrest. He later turned himself in and spent a night in jail. In an interview with In Touch, Rathbun said, 'This was my fault because I needed to make sure I was getting all notices, but by the time I found out, it was too late, and I missed my appointment. So a warrant was issued for my arrest. I immediately drove 14 hours and turned myself in to the court and spent a night in jail.' Ben Rathbun's passing was first reported by the Instagram page shabootydotcom and confirmed by TMZ. His battle with stage 4 stomach cancer lasted several months after his diagnosis at the end of 2024. Despite his illness, Rathbun spent his final moments at home in Greencastle, Indiana, surrounded by his loved ones.

90 Day Fiance's Tyray Considers Weight Loss Surgery: What He's Said About the Procedure
90 Day Fiancé star Tyray Mollett revealed he's focused on his fitness and considered undergoing gastric bypass surgery. In light of his weight loss journey, fans are likely wondering how Tyray plans to achieve his new look and how the process has been going. Tyray first announced he was interested in having a gastric bypass surgery in February 2024. 'I did get in contact with a company based in California but does procedures in Mexico,' he said during the February 7, 2024, episode of 'The Sarah Fraser Show' podcast. 'I worked out a deal with them to get a gastric sleeve done in April.' At the time, he said he put a deposit down for the procedure but was 'still debating' if he should go through with it. 'They want me to do it,' he told the show's host. 'I have to do the pre op in like a month but I'm probably, most likely going to do it. I think it'll be good and I got to make sure I'm good and healthy.' While fans have watched Tyray pursue relationships on 90 Day: The Single Life and 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, he returned to the TLC franchise on season 6 of 90 Day Diaries to document his interest in having the procedure done at Central California Bariatric Surgery center. 'I really need to make these changes and do whatever I can to keep the weight off,' Tyray said in a confessional, which was shared via TLC's Instagram in April 2025. 'Because my life depends on it.' As clips showed him contemplating the surgery, he added, 'Hopefully this will be the start to a new beginning. You know, I'm ready to look like a snack and not eat 'em.' Shortly after TLC uploaded the clip, several people rushed to the comments section to show their support for Tyray. 'I'm so happy you are doing this in CA and not Mexico!! Good luck on your journey!!!' one person commented. Despite expressing interest in the procedure on the show, it was not revealed if Tyray went through with the surgery. Meanwhile, he has not shared any updates about if he had the surgery done on social media. 'Gastric bypass and other types of weight-loss surgery — also called bariatric or metabolic surgery — involve making changes to your digestive system to help you lose weight,' according to the Mayo Clinic. 'Bariatric surgery is done when diet and exercise haven't worked or when you have serious health problems because of your weight. Some weight-loss procedures limit how much you can eat. Others work by reducing the body's ability to absorb fat and calories. Some procedures do both.' Bariatric surgery and other weight loss surgeries can offer many benefits. However, 'all forms of weight loss surgery are major procedures that can pose risks and side effects.' After people undergo the surgery, they 'must make permanent healthy changes to [their] diet and get regular exercise to help ensure the long-term success of bariatric surgery.'

90 Day Fiance's Gino Jokes He's in a Throuple With Ex Linzee and 3rd Woman Amid Jasmine's Pregnancy
90 Day Fiancé star Gino Palazzolo joked that he was in a throuple in some recent social media posts, and one of the women happened to be his ex-girlfriend Linzee Ryder. Gino, 56, reshared some edited photos that featured himself, Linzee, 40, and another woman named Tara. The images came from a fan account that joked about the trio all being involved in a romantic relationship. In one of the pictures, he posed between Linzee and Tara, and the other was edited to look like he was holding both women up in the air with his arms. Linzee later clarified that the entire thing was just for laughs. "I am retired and in an amazing, committed relationship with someone very special to me," she wrote via her Instagram Stories on Friday, March 21. "I am not gonna meet you I do not want to collab and I do not need any help with my OF. No need to message me for these things. Feel free to delete me or keep following but do not try to slide in my DMs it's not gonna happen." Longtime viewers of the franchise will recognize Linzee as the woman Gino allegedly sent nude photos of Jasmine Pineda to and caused the pair to get into an explosive fight during 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 5. 'I was showing her, 'Look how hot my girlfriend is,'' Gino said during the episode. 'I wish I could take it back, but it is true I sent topless photos to my ex of Jasmine. I sent the pictures as revenge to show how amazing and wonderful of a girlfriend I have at this moment. It was a huge mistake.' Jasmine, 38, later claimed that Linzee sent the photos to her employer and it resulted in her losing her job. However, Linzee denied the allegations. 'A certain someone is out here claiming I sent their pics to their work to get them fired … When I have no clue where they work (if they even do),' Linzee wrote per Screen Rant. 'I also 'bullied her child' cuz that's what I do is bully little kids lol. He is a creep and that's the end of the story. Anything these 2 make up to hide that fact is just BS. I'II be anxiously waiting for these 'legal proceedings' from Panama.' The throuple account featuring Gino and Linzee was created after another account teased that he was in a throuple with Jasmine and her new boyfriend, Matt Branistareanu. Jasmine is currently pregnant with Matt's baby. Fans saw Gino agree to be in an open marriage with Jasmine during the Monday, March 17, episode of 90 Day Fiancé: The Last Resort after he confessed that he was concerned about Jasmine, 38, cheating on him. He admitted that he would consider an open marriage if she would turn on her location sharing app on her phone so that he could see where she was. 'It would help, certainly would help. Because otherwise Jasmine, you know, could leave me and cheat on me with someone else. As terrible as an open marriage sounds, this might be the only way to keep Jasmine in my life,' Gino said during the episode. In return, Jasmine immediately turned on her location and explained that she was grateful to him for considering an open marriage with her. 'I would like to let you know how much I appreciate and how much it means to me. You are open to consider, you know, the ethical non-monogamous marriage like just the fact that you are open to consider it, it means a lot to me,' the Panama native said. 'And I would like to touch base on it because you know that at the end of this retreat, the idea is to, to compromise, you know, to change for better our relationship [sic].'
