After the death of 90 Day Fiancé star Elizabeth Castravet’s father, Chuck Potthast, it was clear the reality TV star was leaning on her family for love and support.

“Two weeks ago, tragedy struck our family and it has left us completely shattered. My sweet, loving, and caring dad went to heaven. We’re trying to figure out how to navigate our lives and move forward without him,” Elizabeth wrote via Instagram on November 23, announcing her father’s death in a joint post with her husband, Andrei Castravet.

Audiences were first introduced to Elizabeth and Andrei during the fifth season of 90 Day Fiancé, which aired in 2017. Though Andrei once joked Elizabeth’s family was “like a cult,” her relationships with many of her family members have ebbed and flowed throughout the years.In addition to her dad, Elizabeth has several siblings and two children with Andrei.

Pamela Putnam

According to Soap Central, Putnam and Chuck married when he was 18. Putnam was pregnant with the pair’s oldest child, son David, at the time of their nuptials. The pair had another six children together: sons Charles, Daniel, and Michael, and daughters Jennifer, Rebekah, and Elizabeth.

After their divorce, she married Walter Putnam.

Becky Lichtwerch

Elizabeth has had an on-off relationship with her sister, Becky. The pair had a falling out in November 2022, per People, after Elizabeth told her sister that she and her husband Andrei would be unable to attend a family birthday party due to Andrei’s pending green card renewal. (Andrei was born in Moldova and moved to Tampa, Florida, after beginning his relationship with Elizabeth).

“Good, hopefully he gets sent back,” Becky said at the time.

Becky and her husband Thomas Lichtwerch share a son named Mads.

“Two weeks ago on this day my world became distorted into a place I don’t understand,” Becky wrote via Instagram following her father’s death in November 2025. “My father Chuck went home to be with The Lord. The pain is still more than I can bare so this is all I can write.”

Jenn Davis

Fans of the 90 Day franchise might recall that Jenn made appearances on both the show’s fifth season as well as seasons 4 through 7 of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?. Though she wasn’t on the show looking for love, she was outspoken about her sister Elizabeth’s husband and insisted Andrei was only interested in Libby because he wanted to live in the U.S.

Jenn came under fire in 2020, after she described Andrei’s family’s recipes as “peasant food.”

“OK, so, you guys gotta understand something,” she wrote via her Instagram Stories at the time, per InTouch Weekly. “Literally just getting off a long-ass flight, coming in, meeting a million people for the first time, film crew in your face, you haven’t eaten anything normal — normal to me, anyway, I’m sorry if I’m offending people — but going in and just being mentally mind-f***ed and then having food in your face that you’ve never seen before in terms of, like, a piece of pig fat on a cracker — raw pig fat — [I am] just not used to that.”

She added, “[I] didn’t feel like eating it. I’m sorry. And you guys are just going bonkers about it. Like, chill. Chill. Because if you were in that situation, you wouldn’t eat it either. So stop.”

Charlie Potthast

Charlie and his wife, Megan Potthast, were not on good terms with his family during the seventh season of 90 Day Fiancé, but the pair returned to the show in September 2022. At the time, they revealed they had embarked on a new online career together: selling feet pictures on OnlyFans.

“It was kinda my idea to start doing feet pictures, because I’m like, you know, you have really sexy feet,” Charlie said during a confessional on the series. “A lot of people like that. You can sell those.”

Charlie also works for CMP Capital Investments LLC, the company his father started.

In April 2021, Andrei told Us Weekly he and Elizabeth did not have a relationship with Charlie.

“At this moment of time, the relationship is nonexistent,” Andrei said. “He’s a drunk bum, that’s what it is. Like, bottom line, he loves alcohol too much and it is what it is.”
