Ed “Big Ed” Brown has not been in contact with his ex-fiancée, Liz Woods, for several months.
“I actually have not spoken to Liz in over eight months,” the 90 Day Fiancé alum, 59, exclusively told Us Weekly at the 11th Annual American Reality Television Awards. “I hope she’s happy. I want nothing but the best for her in life.”
Ed and Liz, who had been an on-and-off couple for most of their relationship, got engaged in November 2021. However during an April episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After, Ed canceled the nuptials without telling Liz. The exes subsequently split for good and haven’t reconnected since.
“That’s the only way to break off a relationship,” Ed said of going no contact. “You got to cut it off at the knees, stop all communication and move on. And I think it really helped her to move on, and it’s definitely helped me to move on.”

Following their breakup, Liz moved on with her new boyfriend, Jayson Zuniga, whom she began dating in October 2023. Ed is currently enjoying the single life and casually dating.
“Right now, I’m definitely single and looking,” he shared. “I’m dating somebody locally, but nothing serious”
According to Ed, his dream partner would be a brown-eyed, brunette “conservative” woman with “good morals” who enjoys a glass of red wine.
While Ed is single at the moment, he almost walked down the aisle after getting engaged in September to a fan whom he’d only known for a day.
“It was a spontaneous moment in my life,” Ed recalled of the impromptu decision. “I don’t regret it, but I’m single.”
A source told Us in September that Ed got down on one knee to Porscha Raemond within 24 hours of meeting her. The twosome met during a meet and greet at Capriotti’s Sandwich Shop in Plantation, Florida. Ed later revealed that he took Raemond out to dinner the following day and made her a ring with a paperclip.

“I get down on one knee and everyone goes crazy. The restaurant was freaking out,” Ed said in an interview with Page Six at the time. “I said, ‘Look, I never want to let you go. I think I met The One. I want to marry you.’ And she said, ‘Yes,’ and we hugged and we kissed.”
Ed and Raemond ultimately called it quits the following week.
The American Reality Television Awards will air on Roku Channel, Pluto TV and Xumo on Friday, November 29th.
