90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days star Tigerlily Taylor’s before and after photos show a shocking difference. Tigerlily is a 41-year-old single mom of two from Frisco. She works as a certified handwriting expert in Texas and owns a few businesses, such as Neige Concept and 11A Agency, which are her main sources of income. Tigerlily had lived a life of privilege, but it came to her at a big cost. Tigerlily accused her ex-husband Darren Taylor of being controlling and, sadly, Adnan Abdelfattah didn’t seem to be an upgrade.
Tigerlily met the 22-year-old Adnan on Instagram. Four months later, she flew to Jordan to marry the man. Tigerlily seems to be confident about her decision, but she realized how toxic Adnan is after meeting him in person. However, it’s too late for her to turn back now. Adnan will be deciding what she wears and who she meets. He also doesn’t want her to be friends with any man. Will Adnan also change the way Tigerlily looks by deciding what her hair, makeup, and face should look like? Tigerlily has already dealt with a lot of trauma in her past.

Tigerlily stayed in the marriage for as long as she did because of their children. Tigerlily has two kids with her ex-husband. Their son Finn was born in November 2013, according to Starcasm and Tigerlily and Darren welcomed their second son, Roux, in February 2017.
