90 Day Fiancé star Geoffrey Paschel and Varya Malina, have been surrounded by controversies recently. TLC conducted a tell-all for 90 Day Fiancé on June 7, 2020, and Geoffrey and Malina remained absent. It was later revealed by TLC that Geoffrey was not invited, due to several criminal charges still pending against him.
Varya received the TLC invitation but decided to not go. She believed that it was inappropriate for her to show up alone. This was because Geoffrey and Varya had previously appeared on the show as a team.
Geoffrey Paschel’s assault charges:
According to a media portal, Geoffrey was arrested in 2019 for domestic violence. Reportedly, Paschel’s former girlfriend had called 911 on June 9, 2019, to report an attack by Paschel. The woman reportedly informed the authorities that Geoffrey had allegedly, showed up at her house intoxicated, and assaulted her. She said that he grabbed her by the neck and slammed her head against the wall several times. It was reported that that Geoffrey disabled her phone, so she could not call for help.
