He may not be willing to reveal her face just yet, but 90 Day Fiancé star Jonathan Rivera is happy to give fans a peek at his new girlfriend. Just days after the couple went Instagram official while on a cruise vacation, the reality personality is posting even more photos with his new lady love. He’s still keeping her covered up for the most part, but what little we can see of her is hot, hot, hot. Check out the gallery below to see Jonathan’s latest photos with his new mystery girlfriend.
The star hinted at a split from wife and costar Fernanda Flores, 20, right as the new year started, confirming their separation by mid-January. “I haven’t spoken to Fernanda since December 22,” he told In Touch.

He was working on himself.
“I have a lot going on and so in the midst of all the craziness, I try to focus on what’s important,” he said. He also defended Fernanda and their romance, adding, “My feelings for Fernanda were real, and Fernanda’s feelings for me were real.”

No hard feelings?
“Fernanda’s not a gold digger. Fernanda didn’t come here for a green card,” he continued. “What happened was things change, things change and people change and I can’t help that.”

He attributed it all to growth.
“I don’t know how to help someone from changing who they are or who they were. Also, she’s young, 20 years old. You have a tendency to continue to grow, you want different things as time goes on and I can’t blame her for that.”

But he did throw a little shade.
“I gave it everything I had. I think that was very apparent in the show. None of that was edited, that was my heartfelt feelings. You know you can only give so much until you start giving yourself away,” he said. “What I’m saying is, I guess there was a point where I realized it was never going to be enough.”

Fernanda’s story was a little different.
After taking a social media hiatus, she came back to reveal that Jonathan had blocked her and that, actually, the split was entirely his fault. “You want to know what happened? I married a narcissist,” she tweeted on January 25.

Either way, they’re both totally done.
Two months later, on March 12, Jonathan revealed that he’d withdrawn the paperwork for Fernanda’s green card. On a photo of him grinning and jumping, he added the caption, “That feeling you get when cancel the I-184 (affidavit of support). #ticketcanceled”

There was also a line about finishing a house renovation.
And later, he deleted the I-184 part of the caption entirely. Now, it reads, “That feeling you finish your first complete design renovation! What do you think!?” However, the damage was already done.

But Jon wasn’t sweating it.
After all, he’s moving on. By late May, he was ready to reveal that he actually has a new girlfriend. Though he hasn’t shared her name or any details about her, he has given fans their first look.

He shared this photo of her dancing.
While they were cruising through the Caribbean, he finally revealed his new lady. Though she was facing away from the camera as she shook the skirts of her maxi dress, it was clear that this couple was already pretty cute.

They’re staying private for now.
And Jonathan explained that whole facing-away-from-the-camera thing. “Out of respect for her, we’ve chosen not to show her face,” he explained. “Clearly, I’m happy. Wishing you all the best!”

Now, he may have changed his mind.
On May 23, he posted another photo of his new lady — and this time she was face forward. You still couldn’t see too much of her face, but you could see all of the rest of her.

“All I need in this life of sin,” he captioned the photo.
Referencing Tupac’s “Me and My Girlfriend” — which was also sampled in Beyoncé and Jay-Z‘s song “Bonnie & Clyde” — Jonathan gave fans a look at his girlfriend while saying she was all he needed. “She’s a beauty!” commented one fan.

That wasn’t all.
On his Instagram Story, he gave fans even more glimpses into their trip as they popped a bottle of champagne on their cruise balcony. However, not all fans were loving the secrecy as he carefully kept his girlfriend’s face out of view.

“This is so corny,” commented one fan.
“Either show her or don’t.” Another added, “If he really wanted it private … then he [shouldn’t] even take pics of her, but this is all for attention. … This is what makes them have more fame. Just be happy and stop the drama. Who cares [about] what people would say?”

At dinner, he gave fans another glimpse.
Jonathan’s followers could spot his girlfriend sitting across from him as a waiter pressed pepper onto their plates. The food looked delicious, but we only had eyes for what we could see of his lady.

We can’t help but wonder if Fernanda is seeing this, too.
“Fernanda [is] in Chicago punching the air,” joked one of Jonathan’s followers. Another commenter added, “I think Fernanda is well aware that you have a new friend, so you can stop now.”
