In Season 7 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, Vanja Grbic stood out as a Florida-based dancer hoping to find love abroad. The 40-year-old, originally from Bosnia, took a trip through Serbia, Slovenia, and Croatia to reconnect with her roots and move on from a past relationship after her ex cheated.
While abroad, Vanja met Božo Vrdoljak through a dating app. Things started off strong, but the relationship ended when Božo admitted he still had feelings for his ex. She wasn’t ready to give up, and so Vanja matched with Josko Luketin, a personal trainer and single dad. Their connection grew, and Josko even came to visit her in Florida.
But the romance didn’t last. During the 90 Day Fiancé Tell All special, serious accusations came to light, and the relationship quickly fell apart.
Since 90 Day Fiancé, Vanja has focused on rebuilding her life. She continues working in medical sales while expanding into entertainment and entrepreneurship. She’s also bought a new home and launched multiple business ventures. Vanja’s story didn’t end with love, but she’s focused on moving forward on her terms.
Vanja Grbic’s journey on 90 Day Fiancé, her career, and more explored
Vanja works full-time as a medical sales representative for BillionToOne, a company specializing in oncology. Her work background gives her stability as she explores other interests.
Aside from her work, Vanja has developed a varied portfolio of creative and commercial endeavors. She works as a belly dancer at Helena Modern Riviera, a Mediterranean restaurant in Icon Park. Her performances feature bright outfits and reflect her interest in dance and performance.
Vanja also works as a permanent makeup artist, specializing in brows, eyeliner, lips, and areola restoration. This work calls for precision and creativity, showing how detail-oriented she is across several fields.
Her business attitude extends to the culinary industry with Sunflour Bakery. She makes vegan baked products that are egg-free, dairy-free, and preservative-free, aimed at health-conscious customers.
Vanja’s first Croatian romance began promisingly but quickly unraveled. She met Božo while using a dating app in Split during her healing journey from her previous relationship.
Božo initially seemed perfect to Vanja, but red flags emerged early. He was unemployed despite being a footballer, and he hadn’t told his mother about Vanja’s planned visit. Božo Vrdoljak didn’t make things easy for Vanja. He almost ghosted her while she was traveling to meet him, and their meetup felt off from the start. He barely showed up at the airport and later introduced her as just a “friend” during a cooking class. Eventually, Božo admitted he didn’t feel the same way and still had feelings for his ex.
Things fully ended when he told Vanja he was seeing someone else. Even though they briefly tried to patch things up, Božo clearly wasn’t over his past relationship. Vanja was disappointed, but she didn’t give up on finding love.
Her second chance at romance came with Josko Luketin, a personal trainer and single dad she met on a dating app. Their connection felt more real, and Josko even flew to Florida to see her. Vanja was excited about the idea of becoming a stepmom to his one-year-old son. But after the visit, their relationship took a sharp turn—not in a good way.
Josko suddenly stopped calling and labeled Vanja as “needy.” He questioned her “motherly instincts,” shocking her given their previous connection. Despite this setback, Vanja reconciled with him and traveled to Croatia.
The relationship’s final blow came during the 90 Day Fiancé Tell All episode. Vanja accused Josko of using her for intimacy, and he responded by sharing inappropriate details about their private moments. Most seriously, Vanja revealed that Josko had recorded intimate videos without her consent.
