RECAP: ’90 Day Fiance’ Angela’s Aggression and Suspicions Finally Drives Michael Into Depression
During the June 23 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, the saga of Angela Deem and Michael Ilesanmi took a dramatic turn. Amid the swirling tempest of emotions, Michael found himself at the center of allegations and suspicion from Angela.
In the latest episode, Michael clarified his actions amid mounting tensions. Angela, despite her previous threats to report him to U.S. authorities, appeared to have forgiven him once more. The episode took a dramatic turn when Michael attempted to retrieve his cell phone from Angela, prompting intervention from security and producers, yet the couple seemed to reconcile after the intense altercation.
This season, Angela has been in Nigeria, navigating the arduous process of securing Michael’s U.S. visa, repeatedly denied over the years. However, the situation escalated dramatically when Angela discovered evidence on the phone she had given Michael. She found he was managing a group chat of Nigerian men seeking relationships with older American women for visa purposes.
Additionally, he had shared her tax returns and discussed obtaining a life insurance policy with others, raising suspicions of deception. Angela consulted with a lawyer, contemplating halting the visa process amid fears of being scammed. When confronted, Michael’s attempt to reclaim his phone led to a chaotic scene with security restraining him, a stark departure from his usual demeanor.
“Wait, wait, let him go!” Angela pleaded. “He’s still my husband!”
“This has spiraled out of control,” she later reflected to the cameras. “I’m genuinely worried about Michael; his behavior today was unprecedented. I remained single for so long for a reason. After investing so much in this marriage, giving him my love, it’s humiliating to repeatedly face his deceit.”
Meanwhile, Michael expressed apathy towards the visa process.
“Enough is enough,” he asserted. “I rarely get angry, but when I do, it’s final. Yeah, I know what she’s accusing me of. Enough is enough, please.”
“Angela keeps making me out to be shady, and I’m tired of it,” he added. “There’s nothing shady going on. If I’m hiding something, let her check. I’m done.”
Later, Angela was taken aback when Michael abruptly left after returning her phone, behavior she hadn’t seen before. However, he eventually returned to her hotel room, adamant about salvaging their relationship. He insisted their bond wasn’t driven by money or deceit, explaining his involvement in the group chat as a means to gather information to expedite their reunion. He also clarified a suspicious payment as a routine Wi-Fi expense and apologized for a tasteless joke involving an elderly woman.
“You know, if I had been online then, I would have deleted it because personally, I didn’t like it either,” he remarked.
Regarding the life insurance inquiry, he denied researching it online, attributing it to a probable advertisement. “I’ve never dealt with insurance before,” he affirmed. “I have no knowledge of it.”
When Angela urged him to consider her feelings, he opened up about his emotional struggles.
“I understand women are different emotionally than men,” he acknowledged. “I don’t express myself much to people. But sometimes mentally, physically, I shut down. I get depressed. In the group I’m in, many of us fall into depression because this process takes years. You know how long we’ve been at this. I’m tired of being alone. I’m always at home. I don’t go anywhere.”
Angela appreciated Michael’s candor but clarified to the cameras that despite her loneliness, she never sought solace in group chats. Nonetheless, it was evident she absorbed everything Michael disclosed, including his desire to build a life together and take a dominant role in their household. Though undecided about his visa status, Angela allowed him back into her hotel bed, visibly pleasing Michael.
“I want to believe everything he’s saying right now because I love him,” Angela confided to the cameras. “But my mind keeps questioning the many suspicions. My heart says stay, my mind says go. I won’t be manipulated. I’ll figure it out.”
“You’ve lied so much that I can’t just believe you, Michael,” she continued. “But if I revoke the visa, it’s like tearing the last chapter out of the book. You won’t know the ending. We need closure.”
Thus, the ongoing saga of Angela Deem and Michael Ilesanmi on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? continues to captivate viewers with its blend of passion, doubt, and uncertain futures.
