90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Angela Deemis finding ways to redeem herself, but can it happen while she wants Michael Ilesanmi deported? Angela and Michael were first seen in 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 2 after they met online in 2017. Angela dreamed of a happy life with a Nigerian man, Michael, in the U.S. However, he betrayed her and broke her trust when he cheated. Angela couldn’t look at Michael the same way ever again. She became increasingly paranoid about Michael cheating again, and he did just that.

Angela started looking like the bad guy for questioning Michael’s every move and warning him against talking to other women. She knew that Michael being active on social media would mean he would interact with thirsty fans. Michael let Angela down again and again, yet she didn’t pull his visa application. Angela’s good deeds towards Michael have been overshadowed by her screaming at him, but she really did care about him. Michael confirmed what he felt about Angela when he went “missing” from her house in February 2024 and immediately started a new life in Texas.

Angela May Be Able To Prove Michael Was A Romantic Fraud (But Should She?)

Can Angela Prove That Michael Didn’t Date Her With Good Intentions?

When it comes to romance scams, also known as sweetheart scams, a criminal will be able to gain a victim’s trust quickly so they can steal money or commit fraud. They usually hunt for their prey on social media or dating sites. Fake identities are created and relationships are easily built with gullible victims. While Michael did not create a fake identity, he had approached Angela on Facebook to tell her she looked gorgeous. Michael and Angela had no mutual friends and nothing in common, but he was able to woo her with his words.

Angela fell for Michael because she was starved for attention. It coming from a younger man is what gave her a confidence boost. Angela agreed to go meet him for the first time on camera. She was certain they were going to get engaged, even though she had a bad feeling about the country where Michael was from. What Angela needed to do was block and report Michael’s profile on Facebook and cease all communication with him instead of giving him a chance to go on TV and gain stardom.

It’s only and only Angela’s fault that Michael, who fans literally know nothing about because he hardly interacted with them outside of the show, was able to raise over $52,000 for his cause. Michael got sympathy because his wife was abusive towards him on camera. However, Angela also has proof of Michael having been part of scammy WhatsApp groups like “Paradise Men” or having “piggy banks” for rainy days, or even his admitting to cheating on her, all filmed for the show, which she can use to prove he’s a scammer when the time comes.

However, Angela can also prove she’s a bigger person by letting Michael live his life in America, which is why he approached her on Facebook so many years ago. Angela wants revenge and the biggest revenge she can get on Michael is to let him live in guilt for the rest of his life. Angela has lost all respect from fans, but this is what can help her redeem herself. Instead of wasting more time and money on Michael – this time to send him back to Nigeria – Angela can focus on starting life anew without a user by her side.

The chances of Michael getting deported are slim, and he knows that. If Angela decides to withdraw her case and meets Michael in person to forgive him on camera, it would make for a great new storyline which she can then continue by starring in a season of The Single Life. While it seems Angela was fired for spoiling her Happily Ever After? season 8 storyline because she cried about Michael going missing, this is her chance to make a comeback as the “queen” of reality TV that she’s been all along.

If Michael gets sympathy for escaping a toxic relationship, Angela should too. Michael never loved Angela. It became clear when he dumped her as soon as he came to the U.S. Michael repeatedly cheated on Angela and broke her morale. She loved him enough to fulfill her promise of bringing him to her country. However, Michael didn’t even respect her efforts. Angela is in dire need of being loved and accepted by a person who sees her for who she is. Beyond the anger and the insults, Angela is a hurt woman who can be healed with love.
