Reality television holds a central place in America’s television landscape, captivating audiences nationwide. Viewers from coast to coast tune in to witness real-life dating dramas unfold across the country. Among the standout personalities is Josh Weinstein, who is famous not only for his appearance on “90 Day Fiancé” but also for his entrepreneurial spirit. He is the owner of Preview Models and has made significant strides in the fashion industry, showcasing his versatility and business acumen.

Weinstein’s involvement in “90 Day Fiancé” was unexpected, but nonetheless, it propelled his relationship with Natalie onto the small screen. Initially, his motivation didn’t revolve around fame or exposure, but rather, it stemmed from a chance encounter during a casting session for Preview Models in Florida. The subsequent filming of Natalie’s involvement with Preview Models led to personal interactions, culminating in their televised relationship. “Natalie came to a casting of mine for Preview Models in Florida and wanted to be a part of Preview. Then we began filming her as a part of Preview Models, and the next thing you know, we ended up hanging out a couple of times, and the rest is history,” Shares Josh.

Reality television, however, often presents edited narratives, offering only glimpses into the lives of its participants. Weinstein acknowledges this selective portrayal, noting that viewers witness only a fraction of the reality. “There are so many moments that you don’t see. In all reality, viewers may see a small percentage of what’s really going on,” says Josh. There are moments of sweetness and intimacy, as well as challenges and conflicts, which remain unseen. He underscores the complexity of human relationships, where both memorable and mundane moments shape the narrative, often eclipsed by the sensationalism of television.

Beyond the confines of reality TV, Weinstein’s life pulsates with entrepreneurial energy and familial devotion. He is deeply committed to his family, actively participating in his children’s lives while nurturing his business ventures. “Outside of the show, I’m taking my daughter to cheer competitions and taking care of my son getting stronger every day,” shares Josh. Preview Models, his brainchild, transcends geographical boundaries and is poised to go international. Collaborating with his son, Weinstein ventures into the fashion industry, crafting a brand that reflects his vision and creativity. ”I also have Preview Models that’s going International, a clothing brand that my son is partners with me on, and a New ETF That will be going live very very soon…” says Josh.

Looking ahead, Weinstein envisions a future brimming with innovation and expansion. His entrepreneurial spirit remains undaunted, fueling the creation of new ventures and the cultivation of collaborative partnerships. Real estate investments beckon, signaling a multifaceted approach to wealth generation and asset management. Amidst these aspirations lies the quest for companionship, a partner who resonates with his lifestyle and ambitions.

“I see myself still creating new ideas and new companies and building with others, maybe a much bigger real-estate portfolio and who knows, maybe I will find a partner that will be able to suit my lifestyle..  the sky’s the limit when your mind knows it can create whatever you want it too” states Josh.

Despite the allure of reality television, Weinstein contemplates future endeavors cautiously. While reminiscing about the exuberance of “Jersey Shore” and pondering the prospect of “The Bachelor,” he remains circumspect, aware of the pitfalls and rewards of reality TV stardom. His desire for authenticity underscores his plea for understanding from the public, navigating the labyrinth of public scrutiny with resilience and grace.

Beyond the hustle of business and television, Josh Weinstein finds solace in his leisure activities. His schedule is peppered with gym workouts, culinary explorations, and trips to Colombia, providing him with much-needed breaks from the demands of entrepreneurship. As summer draws near, Weinstein’s plans skillfully intertwine work and play, especially when he travels to coastal destinations with his children. 

“I like to go to Colombia for fun. It’s a place where I can reset and really enjoy myself, so I usually go six times a year. I have a mentor there who lives there full-time, so it’s always a great experience. And a good guys’ weekend in Vegas is always a blast,” Josh shares.

With his diverse interests and dynamic lifestyle, Josh Weinstein is certainly one to watch in the coming years as he continues to influence various facets of culture.
