Shekinah Garner and Sarper Guven are one of the most popular couples on 90 Day Fiancé Season 11. The couple is one of the only returning ones on the current season, which has caused viewers to become more invested in their story line. After meeting Sarper in Turkey, Shekinah tried to move there permanently, but ultimately wasn’t able to. As a result, Sarper decided to come to America on a K1 visa to marry Shekinah.
While Shekinah and Sarper’s relationship had an electric start, things have gotten more difficult for the couple after moving to America. Recent statements by Shekinah have caused viewers to wonder if she is still with Sarper. Here’s everything we know about the situation so far.
Shekinah Garner and Sarper Guven’s relationship problems began when they were living together in Turkey
When viewers first met Shekinah and Sarper on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, the couple had a lot of problems. Shekinah was bothered by Sarper’s past, particularly the fact that he claimed to have slept with over 2500 women. Sarper’s job as a personal trainer didn’t help Shekinah’s insecurities, and she eventually forbade him from seeing female clients as a result.
On Sarper’s end, he felt concerned about Shekinah’s lack of desire to live in Turkey permanently. Shekinah ultimately decided she couldn’t make the move for good, due to her daughter and business in Los Angeles. The couple decided that they would need to move to America and get married to stay together. Sarper proposed to Shekinah shortly after, and she accepted. Despite being in love with Shekinah, Sarper was unhappy to leave his family and life behind in Turkey.
Shekinah and Sarper faced even more challenges after moving to America
After arriving in America, Sarper realized it wasn’t exactly what he had pictured. He was surprised to see that Shekinah’s apartment was smaller than he had imagined. Sarper’s main concern was the fact that Shekinah runs her business out of her home, which meant that he would have to leave every time she had a client over.
Sarper also had a difficult time meeting Shekinah’s family. He had previously met Shekinah’s sister Shariyah in Turkey, although the meeting didn’t go well. While Sarper made a better impression the second time around, it was evident they still had doubts about him.
Shekinah and Sarper’s relationship hit a breaking point during a fight they had shortly after returning from visiting Shekinah’s family. Sarper told Shekinah that he hated her amid an explosive argument about their relationship problems. When the couple sat down to work things out, Shekinah admitted that she felt she could find a more compatible partner for herself. Sarper admitted that he wanted to fix the relationship but refused to apologize for yelling at Shekinah. He even claimed that if he broke up with her, she would cry forever over him.
Did Shekinah Garner and Sarper Guven split?

While there’s no certain indication that Shekinah and Sarper have broken up, several of Shekinah’s recent Instagram stories point to the possibility. Shekinah recently did a Q&A with fans, where several asked her about her relationship with Sarper. Several of her responses were somewhat concerning to fans.
One viewer asked Shekinah to name something she wished she could currently change about her life. Shekinah answered, “I wish I had a happy healthy relationship with Sarper”. This raised suspicions that Shekinah and Sarper’s relationship wasn’t doing the best after filming. Another fan asked if Sarper had calmed down since arriving in America. Shekinah responded, “Nope. Living here together in the US has made everything harder.” In another post, Shekinah also suggested that she and Sarper wouldn’t be appearing on any more seasons together.
While Shekinah’s Q&A isn’t a direct indication that she and Sarper broke up, it strongly suggests that they aren’t doing well. Of course, viewers will have to wait until Season 11 concludes to get a more definite answer on the couple’s relationship status.
90 Day Fiancé Season 11 is currently available to stream on Discovery +.
