Julia Trubkina of 90 Day Fiancé is controversial among fans, but in a recent Instagram post she indicated that she’ll soon be attempting to profit off the buzz she’s accumulated. There are many signs that Julia is loving her new 90 Day Fiancé villain role, and though many fans are critical of the Russian beauty, there are still many more who find her highly entertaining. Now it seems that Julia will be joining the ranks of franchise stars shilling their own branded merchandise.
When Julia was first introduced on 90 Day Fiancé season 8, many fans were sympathetic towards her and felt bad for her having to put up with life on the farm and her fiancé Brandon’s overbearing parents. However, over time Julia’s bratty and judgmental sides began to show, and since then Julia has been labeled the biggest fall from grace in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. But despite her many critics, Julia still keeps fans talking, and she’s a popular star from the franchise—even if she isn’t exactly beloved.
On 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Julia revealed her aspirations of becoming a wedding and party planner; however, a new comment on Instagram indicates she may be supplementing her income another way. Julia took a trip back to Russia recently, and in the comments, a fan suggested that she make T-shirts with her iconic “I go Russia” line from the show. Julia cryptically responded, “Soon,” with a heart emoji. It appears that Julia is working on some merchandise, but it’s not quite ready to be revealed.
It’s no surprise that Julia would want to profit off her popularity, and she’s far from the first franchise star to sell their own branded products. 90 Day Fiancé‘s Angela Deem marketed her own merchandise on Instagram, as have so many others, including Big Ed Brown, Rosemarie Vega, Biniyam Shibre and more. Julia’s Green Card status and ability to legally work are still up in the air, so it’s understandable that she would try to make some extra cash by selling branded merchandise.
Unfortunately, Julia didn’t go into any detail about what she actually plans to sell or when she will be revealing her merchandise, so 90 Day Fiancé fans don’t have much to go off of. But hopefully Julia will demonstrate a sense of humor with her products and can laugh at her more ridiculous behavior and words. For now, fans will have to wait for their “I go Russia” shirts, though if Julia is already teasing her offerings, the wait might not be too long.
