 Russ and Paola Mayfield have been trying to go about their usual life after the coronavirus pandemic brought their city under lockdown. Paula revealed she has been taking online workout classes and is happy that she is able to make some money for her family. Meanwhile, Russ continues his work from home and has been putting extra effort into taking care of the family. 

One thing that this lockdown brought for the couple was an understanding of how much work they did. Paula was happy to see Russ taking matters in his hand and cooking breakfast every day for the family. While there had been occasions where the pair fought, they came out of it as a much stronger couple. 

One thing they did not expect to hear was the death of Russ's grandmother. While filming for the show, Russ and Paula found out the heartbreaking news that his grandmother had passed away. Paula recalled what a wonderful lady she was as she could not control her tears. Meanwhile, Russ was left upset that he could not be there with her. 

He revealed he was the only one who was away and because of Covid-19, he won't be able to make it there to meet her. Russ was extremely angry with the fact that the pandemic had been separating people and his grandmother passed away without having her loved ones by her side. 

He admitted that things would have been very different had the pandemic not hit the world. He broke down crying thinking she would have had someone by her side all the time had this pandemic not occurred. He revealed his grandmother had been having health issues for quite some time and was set to undergo surgery. 

Russ confessed that even though she wasn't keeping very well no one was prepared to hear the sad news about her death. He assured the viewers that the death was not due to Covid-19 but did not hold back in cursing the pandemic as he said 'f**k you Covid' as he could not control his emotions. While Russ was upset about not being with his grandmother at the time of her death, he had the support of Paula. 

'90 Day Fiancé': Self Quarantined' airs on Sundays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
