Josco Lukon has recently found himself at the center of attention thanks to his dramatic and controversial romance
with Vana Gerbich on Season 7 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. Vana, a medical sales representative
originally from Bosnia, moved to the U.S. as a refugee during her childhood. Over the years, she has carved out a
niche for herself as a successful belly dancer and vegan baker. However, her journey in the realm of romantic relationships has been tumultuous, marked by heartbreak after her ex-fiancé cheated on her following a proposal.
After a prolonged period of singleness, Vana sought to reconnect with her roots in Southeast Europe and met Bozo Doljac during her trip. Hoping for a fresh start, she was ready to get engaged to Bozo, only to face heartbreak when he ended their relationship. Shortly thereafter, Vana crossed paths with Josco, igniting a spark that led her to envision a promising future with him, despite their brief time together in Croatia.
However, the relationship took a downturn when Josco, after briefly visiting the U.S. to spend time with Vana, chose to end things with her via a text message. He expressed doubts about her maternal instincts, insisting that their romance had progressed too quickly. Despite the split, it appears that both Josco and Vana have managed to maintain a cordial friendship, though the prospect of rekindling their romance seems unlikely.
Initially feeling despondent about her quest for love, Vana found renewed hope when she met Josco, whom she described as being “built like a Greek god.” Their connection bloomed over easy-going conversations filled with light-hearted banter, and Vana was particularly drawn to his impressive physique, noting his “huge arms” and “washboard abs.”
Their blossoming romance included a memorable kayaking date in the stunning Adriatic Sea. During their time together, Josco shared his backstory with Vana, revealing that he had once lived in Zagreb, the capital of Croatia. This city, known for its vibrant economy and high quality of life, served as his home until he moved to Split in 2019 to pursue remote work.
As a single dad to a one-year-old boy named Lucas, Josco’s life took on a new dimension that he had only disclosed to Vana in person. He had been fostering Lucas for five months and was in the process of adoption, which he described as “one of the best feelings in the world.” Josco explained that he had been exploring surrogacy but found it to be illegal in Croatia. Instead, he decided to create a nurturing environment for his foster child.
Impressively, Josco has spent the last 15 years dedicating himself to fitness, working as a fitness trainer who offers online coaching. His commitment shines through in his disciplined routine and the results he showcases on social media, where he posts numerous shirtless photos to attract potential clients. Josco’s transformation journey is not just about personal achievement but also about creating a sustainable, healthy future for his son.
Though their romantic chapter may have closed, both Josco and Vana seem to have gained valuable insights from their time together. As Vana’s search for love continues, fans of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days will be watching closely to see what the future holds for each of them, especially as they navigate the complexities of parenting, relationships, and self-discovery.
