Montage of 90 Day Fiancé's Kenny Niedermeier & Armando Rubio looking dissapointed

Kenneth “Kenny” Niedermeier and Armando Rubio are among the most successful couples in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, but there are some reasons that have led me to believe they won’t appear in another season. 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way has always been my favorite spin-off because it features interesting cultures. The spin-off also has a track record of featuring memorable stories, one of which is Kenny and Armando’s. The popular couple debuted in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 2, displaying excellent chemistry and immediately winning over fans. They quickly became the VIPs of their first season.

I enjoyed Kenny and Armando’s story because it felt genuine. Kenny successfully navigated the challenges of adjusting to life in Mexico while Armando bravely confronted his family about his sexuality. Despite significant delays, the 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way couple ultimately concludes their journey by getting married in a beautiful ceremony surrounded by their loved ones90 Day Fiancé viewers still fondly remember the special moment when Kenny and Armando shared their wedding vows. Their story ended on a positive note, leaving fans feeling happy and fulfilled.

What Happened To Armando & Kenny’s Baby Plans?

Armando and Kenny’s Surrogate Was A No-Show

I was surprised to see Kenny and Armando return to the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off even though their story had already concluded. They joined season 5 to showcase some of their marital challenges, with the most important one being their difference of opinion on having a baby. Armando, who is Hannah’s biological father, shared that he wanted to have one more baby to solidify his relationship with his spouse, Kenny. Meanwhile, Kenny, who was 60 then, felt he was too old to have a newborn. Kenny thought that his days of raising children were over.

90 Day Fiancé: What Does Armando Rubio & Kenny’s Daughter Hannah Look Like Today

Hannah Rubio from 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way is wrapping up her tween years and has already carved out a space for herself on social media.

In the first few episodes of the season, Armando and Kenny argued about whether to have a baby. However, Kenny surprised many fans, including myself, by agreeing with Armando. He decided that he was willing to parent another child. In the latter half of the season, Kenny and Armando sought advice on surrogacy and decided to mix their DNA. They began interviewing surrogates, eventually choosing to work with a surrogate named Gema. They seemed ready to start their journey to have a baby. Unfortunately, Gema ghosted the clinic right before the procedure was supposed to begin, leaving the couple feeling rejected.

Kenny & Armando’s Last Appearance Failed To Generate Much Buzz

While Kenny and Armando are entertaining, they are unlikely to appear in another season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way . I believe that their last appearance on TV was underwhelming.

Unlike other cast members, Kenny and Armando didn’t have dramatic fights or heated arguments that kept me on the edge of my seat. Their storyline of starting a family wasn’t as compelling as other couples, such as Brandan & Mary De Nucciõ and Tejaswi “TJ” Goswami & Kimberly Rochelle. Being the only happily married couple on the season, Kenny and Armando failed to generate the buzz I had expected.

There Is No Bad Blood Between Kenny & Armando’s Parents

I also think Kenny and Armando won’t appear on the show because their story has come to an end. Although they may still have some goals to accomplish, they have resolved all major marital issues.

Armando has made a positive impression on Kenny’s children and has become part of their lives. Likewise, Kenny has become part of Armando’s family, particularly with his mother and father. Kenny has posted many photos with them over the years. Armando also shared an album a few years ago showing Kenny interacting with his siblings and parents, capturing a happy and united family dynamic.

Kenny & Armando Often Feature On The Pillow Talk

Kenny and Armando Can Be On TV Without Receiving A Bad Edit


I truly believe Armando and Kenny don’t need to appear on the show to stay relevant. Over the last two years, they have begun filming Pillow Talk and hosting the Tell Alls. They have become integral members of the 90 Day Fiancé family, offering their opinions on other couples and supporting their fans. In August, Kenny and Armando filmed an episode of Pillow Talk with Yara Zaya and Jovi Dufren in Mexico City. They announced this collaboration on Instagram and appeared happy.

Filming Pillow Talk allows Kenny and Armando to share their lives without worrying about negative editing.

Kenny & Armando Are Already Sharing Their Adventures On YouTube

Kenny & Armando Have Found An Outlet To Engage With Their Audience


Most cast members appear in 90 Day Fiancé to showcase their journey. However, I don’t think Kenny and Armando need to do the same anymore because of their growing popularity and budding YouTube channel. In July 2024, Kenny and Armando announced they’d make weekly videos for their fans.

Kenny & Armando Prefer Peace To Controversy

I feel Kenny and Armando value their peace too much to engage in more drama.

The popular pair has faced controversies and issues before, including a feud with 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way cast member Statler Riley, which negatively impacted their reputation. It doesn’t look like Kenny and Armando want a similar drama on the show. They prefer to avoid conflicts with other cast members or distance themselves from toxic situations. Currently, they are focusing on starting a family, raising their daughter, Hannah, and enjoying their married life in New Mexico.

Kenny and Armando are thoroughly enjoying their married life. They are aware that being on the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off brings challenges like negative feedback and criticism. Even though I have noticed that Kenny and Armando can handle any issues that arise, I feel they are wise enough not to let the show affect their peaceful married life and good reputation. In the future, they may join 90 Day Fiancé as hosts or guests. However, I doubt they would choose to appear again in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, as the spin-off no longer serves their interests.
