90 Day Fiance’s Angela and Michael Made it to America
Meanwhile, Angela Deem found herself still grappling with doubts about her husband, Michael Ilesanmi, as she tried to ascertain the validity of the recent scandal involving the “Paradise Men” group admin.
“We don’t know when that visa’s coming. What if we start fighting again?” Angela questioned the Nigeria native as they lay in bed. In a private confessional, she added, “Right now, I need to decide if he is telling the truth about everything he said. I’m gonna get to the bottom of this.”
Michael vehemently denied that there was “nothing” he was hiding, and the Georgia native decided to leave it up to chance and not pull the visa paperwork.
Michael’s visa was ultimately approved, and the pair arrived in America a month later. “We’ve been through a lot, you know?” Michael told producers at the airport. “And I appreciate my wife for her strong patience. She said she’s not going to leave me until the visa gets approved. But to God be the glory. After the administrative processing after two weeks, it has been approved. It was quicker than I thought.”
90 Day Fiance’s Loren Debuted the Results of Her Mommy-Makeover
Loren, who is now nearly fully recovered from her mommy makeover, decided to go shopping with a friend for clothes show off her new body.
During the outing, the mom of four admitted that her husband, Alexei Brovarnik, was upset as he felt she downplayed the recovery process of the surgeries. In result, their sex life has also suffered.
Later in the episode, Alex and Loren went out for a date night, where she planned to debut her new body for the first time.
“I don’t know why I’m nervous. This is the first time since surgery that Alex will see me without my faja, my girdle, my bandages, everything,” the New York native said in a confessional. “And I just hope that he’s happy with the results.”
Although the reveal went smoothly, Loren broached the topic of potentially returning to the workforce, feeling she had lost herself in motherhood. The father of three disagreed with the idea, emphasizing that her primary responsibility should be to their family.

“It’s something that he doesn’t really talk about,” the Brazil native privately told the cameras. “I’m not sure that I have seen Patrick crying like that before.” The mom of one encouraged her husband to bond with her father and they decided to go on a guy’s trip in a nearby town.
