90 Day Fiancé: Photos That Prove Michael Ilesanmi Is Thriving After Angela Deem Split (He Has Moved On)
Michael Ilesanmi from 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? has been revealing what happened to him after he left Angela Deem. Michael came to the U.S. in December 2023 around Christmastime. Michael and Angela have been married since January 2020 after having dated since 2018. They first featured in 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 2 where Angela had flown all the way to Nigeria to see Michael in person. The couple gained notoriety for their frequent fights that almost always took a violent turn. Angela especially didn’t like Michael giving attention to other women.
Michael and Angela have been split for the last few months and there’s been no news about their divorce. The pair have been taking shots at each other on social media, but clearly, Michael is winning the fan vote. The supposedly single Michael has all eyes on him, watching what he will do next in the franchise. Fans want Michael to appear on The Single Life and are keeping their fingers crossed for him to find a permanent home in America without Angela deporting him. Michael’s future remains a mystery for now, although his recent photos prove he is flourishing.
Why Did Michael Go “Missing” After Coming To The US?
Angela posted a TikTok video on February 26, 2024, to announce that Michael had been missing since February 23, 2024. Angela said the police were involved. According to Angela, Michael had left everything at home, including his ID and his wallet. She knew that he had carried $40 in his pocket but was not aware that Michael was using a burner phone and had clicked some pictures of his ID which were on it. Michael contacted the police himself that day. His identity was verified using the photos of his passport on his secret phone.
Michael had told the police that he was in fear of his life.
Michael requested them not to tell Angela about his location. Michael had lived in America with Angela for two months before his alleged disappearance. He had seemingly planned to dump Angela right from the start. Michael may have never loved Angela, and if he did love her at the start, he might have lost feelings for her when she started controlling his every move and monitoring his social media presence. Michael could have faked the relationship for years while knowing that it was only a matter of time till he could come to the U.S. and leave the Georgia woman.
Michael’s Special Message To 90 Day Fiancé Fans
Michael broke his silence after going missing for the first time in March 2024. The Nigerian celeb looked fresh and happy in the selfie video where he had a hat on and donned a blazer on a gray t-shirt. Michael wanted to warn fans via kikiandkibbitzabout some fake social media accounts made in his name. Michael told the show’s viewers that he was not on any social media platforms at the time. He’d assured them that when the time would come, he would be making his “official” pages. Commentators were glad that Michael was “safe” and still in the U.S.

Michael finally made his Instagram debut in May 2024. His Instagram username @mykol_01 made fans giggle as that’s what Angela pronounced his name like on the show. Michael also had a snarky caption ready for his first-ever Instagram update.
“Peace is More than the Absence of War.”
He did look like he was at peace when he clicked the selfie. Michael wore a printed button-down shirt and was seated inside a car when the picture was taken. He had a slight smile on his face with his tongue out playfully as if he were mocking his ex-wife through the picture.

Michael’s next Instagram post was even more interesting. He was standing inside a bathroom taking a mirror selfie. Michael had thrown on a simple shirt with thick stripes and a pair of dark jeans as his OOTD. He had a satisfied look on his face when he clicked the pics. In this caption, Michael said that one could either stay bitter or get better, and it was a simple choice he had made. While people such as 90 Day Fiancé star Clayton Clark welcomed Michael back to the internet, others noticed that Michael’s ring was missing from his left hand.
Michael had officially revealed that his relationship with Angela was over through this photo.
Michael’s fans agreed that he needed to be with a woman who would actually treat him right because he deserved a happy life. Michael had been getting the right kind of attention from his female fans since he created the Instagram page, which was something that Angela had always feared. Michael wasted no time in making an IG page and getting it verified. The page currently has over 14.7k followers within just a week of Michael officially launching it.

Michael is in good spirits, enjoying his new life in his new home country. He tagged his post “somewhere” so no one could trace his current location and tell it to his estranged wife. Michael wore a blue and green printed shirt and looked cool for the summer in the bright blue sky and surrounded by lush greenery. Michael’s face glowed with happiness when he decided to click the happy selfie. He told his followers to make someone smile every day while not forgetting that they are “someone” too. Michael had never looked this happy when he was with “Angie.”
However, Michael had added a second picture to the post which was accessible upon swiping left. The picture showed a hand holding a plumeria flower. The word “hope” was written on top of the photo while using the flower as a replacement for the letter “o.” The hand didn’t look like it belonged to Michael and fans deduced that it was a woman. Michael may have been hinting at the presence of a new woman in his life. Michael suggested he had already moved on from his relationship of eight years and was in much better company.

It’s not only Instagram that Michael has been active on. He has also been actively using TikTok. Instagram blogger kikiandkibbitz shared a screen recording of Michael’s message to his fans on TikTok. Michael was announcing his return to TikTok and thanking his fans for their “massive” support. Michael told them that he wasn’t used to TikTok and asked them to bear with him. The comments on the livestream were proof of how much fans love Michael. While he was getting messages from followers who were happy to see him and welcoming him back, someone also told him he looked cute.
Michael Is Making Money With Cameo
Meanwhile, Michael is also busy making money on Cameo to live comfortably in the U.S. without depending on Angela. Michael activated his Cameo page in April 2024. A personal video message from the 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star costs $70. Like his other social media accounts, Michael used to have a joint Cameo profile with Angela. There are now theories that Angela kept their earnings for herself. Michael has been hustling hard since his split and is continuing to show Angela that his life is much better without her in it.
