90 Day Fiancé star Angela Deem is known for her on-screen controversies, but she is also just as outrageous when the camera stops rolling. Angela has been in the franchise since Before the 90 Days season 2 in 2018. Angela met Michael Ilesanmi from Nigeria on social media and quickly decided to get married to him despite Michael being almost 20 years younger than Angela. The grandmother of six seemed desperate to have a young husband and Michael badly wanted to come to the U.S.

Angela and Michael were talked about due to her violent streak and the sympathy fans felt towards him. Knowing that it was getting her attention, Angela started turning up her atrocious behavior by a notch every season. Angela’s antics got worse every time she was cast in a new 90 Day Fiancé spin-off and, despite heavy backlash on the internet, she refused to change. There are finally rumors that Angela has been fired from the franchise after she leaked the news that Michael was in the U.S. and was “missing.”

10Angela Yelled At A Flight Attendant

Angela Thinks She’s The Boss Of Everyone

In July 2022, 90 Day Fiancé fans couldn’t believe their eyes when they watched a video of a woman screaming at a flight attendant and the woman turned out to be Angela. Angela, who claims that she yells and gets angry only when provoked by Michael, got into a fight with a flight attendant and a co-passenger quickly caught everything on video. Angela could be seen yelling at the flight attendant who was standing in front of her (via r/amerra) telling them that they were not going to talk to her “like this cause you’re not the law enforcement.”

Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

While Angela had her back to the camera, her signature blonde hair tied up in a ponytail along with her voice made it easy for 90 Day Fiancé fans to recognize her. Angela was struggling to speak as her slurred speech made some of the words she was saying incomprehensible. She asked the staff member to “get who you need to get” because, as per Angela, they had “started this s***.” Before the clip cut off, Angela turned around, confirming her identity and saying, “Do you see my bud anywhere?” to someone seated next to her.

9Angela Overshared To A Fan On NYC Streets

Angela Is Asking For Attention Everywhere She Goes

In August 2024, shabooty shared a picture submitted by a fan. It showed Angela planting a kiss on the fan’s cheek and posting with them on the street. The blogger explained that the fan had run into Angela at the Erie County Fair in Hamburg, New York. According to the blogger, Angela was off a “desperate” vibe and seeking validation from fans. Angela was the one desperate to talk to the fans and not the other way around. She even told them, “No one has my back and I’m really hurt, that’s why I comes across so angry.”

Angela called Michael an opportunist. Angela also confided to the fan that she was losing followers after getting a backlash for her split with Michael. She begged the fans who like her in real life to follow her on social media. Angela herself was at the venue to meet Vanilla Ice and later flew to Canada for a meet and greet where she surely must have asked her IRl fans to follow her on Instagram.

JoJo Supported Angela When No One Did

Angela couldn’t marry Michael immediately in Nigeria after his K-1 visa was rejected because she didn’t have a witness.

However, Angela fought with JoJo because the latter had become friends with Debbie Johnson. Angela was livid that JoJo was getting along better with Debbie, who JoJo met through Angela.

She Thinks Usman Gives A Bad Name To Nigerians

Angela and 90 Day Fiancé‘s Usman first got into a verbal spat in 2021 on an episode of 90 Day Bares All. Angela had called Usman a scammer for taking advantage of her friend Lisa Hamme. She accused Usman of giving Nigerians a bad name, and he retaliated by calling Angela a pig. A year later, Angela’s husband Michael created an Instagram page against her wishes. He posted a picture with Usman and Angela reacted by posting the comment, “Birds of a feather flock together.”

Usman was in no mood to deal with Angela’s baseless accusations. He accused Angela of scamming Michael since 2018. He called Angela a “heartless woman” and claimed it was due to her “bad records,” that Michael had faced visa issues. Usman accused Angela of holding his fellow Nigerian friend Michael “hostage” in her relationship when they came face to face on the Happily Ever After? season 7 Tell All. At the same time, the 57-year-old hit back by saying that Usman is a “piece of s**t.”

Angela and Scott became friends after Michael went missing. It was obvious for fans to assume the two were dating due to their bad reputation in the franchise and their similar ages. Scott posted a video of him performing “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” inside an empty bar with Angela even jumping into Scott’s arms as he lifted her up (via 90dayfianceupdate.) He posted the video and captioned it “Dirty Dancing” but later claimed that Angela was like his sister. Scott anyway might not be Angela’s type, since she’s always shown an interest in men younger than her.
