Angela Deem Opens Up About Legal Battles with Michael Ilesanmi
90 Day Fiancé star Angela Deem has recently broken her silence regarding her ongoing legal struggles with estranged husband Michael Ilesanmi. The 58-year-old is pushing for Michael’s deportation, alleging marriage fraud following her annulment filing, which he countered with a divorce petition. As the situation unfolds, emotions are running high, and Angela is feeling the weight of the legal battle.
The Turbulent Relationship of Angela and Michael
The latest season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? showcased the unraveling of Angela and Michael’s relationship. By the season’s end, they were already living apart, with Michael revealing he had relocated 18 hours away from Angela. He explained that he felt compelled to leave after experiencing what he described as Angela’s “attitude.”
In a dramatic turn, Michael shared that he fled while Angela was out running errands, taking only a backpack with essential documents. He claimed to have borrowed a stranger’s phone to arrange transportation, but some fans suspect his escape may have been premeditated, especially given his involvement in a social media group that connects Nigerian men with American women.
Angela’s Emotional Journey
In a recent interview, Angela opened up about the emotional toll her legal battles have taken on her. Expressing a desire to move forward and find love again, she reflected on the sacrifices she made for Michael. “I’m focusing on me and my grandkids and clearing my name,” she stated, visibly emotional.
Angela also expressed her intention to be a voice for those who have been exploited for immigration purposes, viewing herself as a “chosen” advocate for others facing similar situations. She believes her strength positions her to help others who have been taken advantage of.
Current Lives of Angela and Michael
Today, Angela and Michael are living separate lives. Angela has been sharing glimpses of her life as a grandmother and continues to make appearances as a special guest at various clubs, expanding her social circle. In addition to her reality TV endeavors, she has ventured into selling adult toys, which has garnered mixed reactions from her followers.
Meanwhile, Michael is pursuing a career as a social media influencer, promoting businesses run by fellow Nigerians and embracing his new life in the U.S. Recently, he shared a clip of himself bowling for the first time, captioning it, “Appreciate the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”
As both Angela and Michael navigate this new chapter in their lives, fans remain invested in their journeys and the unfolding drama.
