BENTONVILLE, ARKANSAS: '90 Day Fiancé' star Big Ed Brown talked candidly about his new love interest in an interview with ET, following his dramatic separation from Liz Woods. He is after an Arkansas woman who is far more reserved than he is. 

If things work out between them, he may not go back to TV, he said, out of respect for her limits. The star of the '90 Day Fiancé' franchise declared, "The first thing I would do most definitely number one was respect my future partner’s privacy." 



 

He acknowledged that, in order to support his new relationship, he would "walk away" from reality TV. "Unless it's a different, you know, HGTV, a remodeling show, or something fun," Ed humorously said.

Ed also made hints about his future plans. He stated that he was looking for "real love" and that a "conservative Christian woman" would be the ideal mate. 

Ed revealed that he is only seeing women who are closer to his age and who work in the real estate business like him when he remarked, "Right now, I am meeting a lot of fantastic women."

Why did '90 Day Fiancé' star Big Ed Brown split from Liz Woods?

A few years ago, the 59-year-old native of Arkansas fell deeply in love with his partner, Liz.

Ed wanted to wed Liz and start a family with her. Unfortunately, after moving to Arkansas with Liz, Ed's emotions shifted.

Following a heated argument with Liz, Ed realized that getting married to her would be a grave mistake. In '90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?' Season 8, he ended things with Liz, unexpectedly.

He promptly ended the marriage ceremony and moved on from her.

Liz admits in a preview of the next '90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?' Season 8 episode she feels like the worst mother following her surprise separation from Ed. PEOPLE just released a sneak peek of '90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?' Season 8.

Liz chats to her mother after dropping off her 11-year-old daughter, Ryleigh, at the airport. When Liz's mother asks how she's doing, she replies, "I feel a little sick to my stomach."

Her mother then asks if Ed is aware that Ryleigh is "gone" or if he has "even called" to check in, to which Liz replies, "No." Later, Liz bursts into tears, feeling like the "worst mom ever" for including Ryleigh in her failed relationship with Ed.
