90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Michael Ilesanmi’s friendship with a shocking Hollywood personality is making jaws drop after he recently revealed his Green Card status in the U.S. Michael started his reality TV journey in 2018 during Before The 90 Days season 2 with Angela Deem. It appears Michael had always wanted to come to America; he sought out Angela on Facebook and sent her a message. Once she fell for his charming personality, she wanted to marry him and bring him to Georgia. Michael finally arrived in America, seven years later.
Angela and Michael were together for only two months before he started his solo journey towards his American Dream by disappearing from her home. Now Michael is rubbing shoulders with Hollywood celebrities.
There are rumors that Michael will soon star in a Netflix documentary and also that he has been rubbing shoulders with Kim Kardashian. While Michael claims those rumors are baseless, he surely has become friends with a Hollywood icon or two since his 90 Day Fiancé debut. American model, television personality, and author Chrissy Teigen recently tagged Michael in an Instagram Story. It was a video of Chrissy’s husband John Legend singing at a live event. She captioned it, “Missing @mykol_01.”

Chrissy Has A Long-Time Connection With 90 Day Fiancé
EGOT-winning, critically acclaimed, multi-platinum artist and producer John is headlining the sold-out Global Citizen’s Move Afrika Tour. The tour has come to Lagos, Nigeria, for the first time. John performed at the sold-out show on January 25, 2025, captivating the audience with some of his biggest hits, including “Ordinary People,” PDA,” “Green Light,” “All Of Me,” and “Refuge.” His surprise appearance alongside his wife Chrissy left fans in awe. It makes sense for Chrissy to have tagged Michael since he is one of the most famous faces from Lagos on reality TV.
Chrissy is a huge 90 Day Fiancé fan–and so is John. Chrissy previously received a Cameo from Angela when she congratulated Chrissy on the launch of Safely, her cleaning and self-care company with Kris Jenner. Angela joked about Chrissy giving her an egg when she was trying to have a baby with Michael. Chrissy called Angela a “QUEEN.” Tagging Michael on Instagram is a big deal, especially while the Nigerian star tries to make it big in the U.S. He’s already expressed an interest in exploring shows with other networks after rumors he got fired from 90 Day Fiancé.
