What Happened To John McManus After 90 Day: The Single Life Season 4? (2024)

John McManus is back on TV following his stint on 90 Day: The Single Life season 4 with Megan Brown. John was introduced in 90 Day Fiancéseason 9 as Patrick Mendez’s half-brother who lived with him and created trouble between him and Thaís Ramone. John’s naughtiness won him many fans as he asked the over-enthusiastic Jibri Bell to shut up during the season 9 Tell All by calling him, “Spahkles” or simply entertaining them with his rude but real personality. Sadly, it failed to impress Thaís, who had to live with him.

Thaís still has a grudge against John and her displeasure is evident on her expressive face every time he’s around her and Patrick. John tried his best to convince his brother that being with Thaís was a bad idea. He suggested Thaís was a scammer taking advantage of his brother. John’s behavior messed up the family’s dynamic, and he found an enemy for life in Thaís. And now that Thaís was back in Brazil for the first time in two years after her wedding, John had come there too and Patrick didn’t tell Thaís John was coming.

John & Thaís' Long-Running Feud Explained

John & Thaís' Hate Each Other & Don't Hide It

Thaís had a difficult time adjusting to her life in America when she moved there on a K-1 visa and part of the reason was John’s brother Patrick. Thaís couldn’t get along with John at all. While Thaís had differences with Patrick as they struggled with communication, John was very vocal about how he wasn’t accepting of her relationship with his brother. Thaís was aware of John living with Patrick before she moved to the U.S. yet, she was wary of sharing her home with a stranger. Meanwhile, John’s snappy remarks about Thaís and his backhanded comments said it all.

Thaís was especially uncomfortable with Patrick throwing parties and inviting other women home, around Patrick, and still, John threw a party in the house. John had even tried to get Patrick to arrange a bachelor party involving “100 hookers.” Thaís was at fault for not having acquainted herself with John before moving. She was also unnecessarily rude to John when she could have figured out a different way to handle things. John wasn’t understanding of boundaries, especially when he was going to be living with a couple about to be married.

Patrick & Thaís Kicked John Out After They Moved To Las Vegas

John Had To Live Out Of His Suitcase

The brothers were living together in Patrick’s home in Austin, Texas when Thaís first came to the United States. The three then moved to Dallas, Texas before Patrick and Thaís’s wedding. Patrick mentioned they moved to Las Vegas, Nevada during the Tell All. Patrick’s home security job required him to move all the time. John also worked at the same company and didn’t mind the occasional relocation as he was single at the time. However, by the time John returned to TV on 90 Day: The Single Life season 4, he had somewhat already moved out of the Vegas house.

John Met Megan On 90 Day: The Single Life

Megan Slid Into John's DMs

While John’s dating life was never discussed on 90 Day Fiancé season 9, he became the main character of his story on The Single Life. John who loved his carefree existence, parties, and vices previously, had now fallen in love and even changed his relationship status on Facebook to “taken.” He met Megan when she messaged him on Instagram. Megan had the same sense of humor as him. John and Megan chatted online and met in person four months later when he visited San Antonio. John was impressed by Megan’s looks and took pride in their sexual chemistry.

John Proposed To Megan On the TellAll

Megan Was Impressed By John's Spontaneous Proposal

John and Megan had been dating for five months when he filmed 90 Day: The Single Life. Patrick and Thaís were convinced it was yet another fling, but John was certain this was going to be a lifelong affair. Being in a relationship with Megan meant that John had to accept her child from a previous relationship. John never wanted to be a dad, but he was now going to become a partner and a parent at once. Megan didn’t like John’s idea of not having kids as she wished to become a mother again.

She was also in a hurry to get married to John, perhaps out of fear of him getting cold feet and refusing to move to Texas for her. She wanted John to propose to her within one year and a half. She only wanted the commitment and not the ceremony. Surprisingly, John did everything that Megan wanted.

“It’s right now, baby!”

John popped the question to Megan during the Tell All. He already had a gold band with diamonds with him. John ended up marking them as the first couple to get engaged during a televised Tell All in the series.

John Confused Fans By Posing With Mystery Woman

Fans Wondered If It Was John's New Girlfriend

Fans have been following John on Instagram to keep up with his spontaneous life. They want to know what happened next for him and Megan, especially since Megan is not a part of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 8. In April 2024, John posted a video with the sound “Happy To Be Here” by Wookiefoot. He captioned it, “Good to get most of us together.” The opening frame of the video was a selfie of John with a woman his fans didn’t recognize. “Wait… I am confused… who is Johnny with now?” asked oreopuddin and jrssopvg wrote, “Hey Big John, whos the pretty blonde at the beginning?” John told a fan that it was his “sister.”

John & Megan Are Still Together

John Wished Megan A Happy Birthday

John proved to fans that there was no new woman in his life by dedicating a sweet post to Megan a few days later. John wanted to wish his “babes” publicly on her birthday. John posted a slideshow-format video with several pictures of Megan. Some of them featured her daughter. John called Megan the “love of his life.” Fans told John the two of them looked good together. John is happy and not regretting his hasty decision. John was pressured into making his relationship official and put on the spot by Megan, but he seems to be sure of her for now.

Will John Be Making Thaís' Life A Living Hell On Happily Ever After?

John Came To Brazil Uninvited On Thaís' Birthday

John and Thaís are still not seeing eye to eye even on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? John has now landed in Brazil uninvited and will be staying with Thaís and John in John’s dad’s apartment. John also forgot that it was Thaís’ birthday, so he didn’t wish her and said he was her “surprise.” Thaís is already upset with John’s dad and Patrick is just trying to impress Thaís’ dad. It’s easy to see 90 Day: The Single Life's John’s presence in Brazil is going to make matters worse for the couple as he stirs the pot and creates chaos in their lives.
