90 Day Fiancé’s Michael Ilesanmi Reveals Bold New Personality After Celebrating Big Win Amid Deportation Threats

90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Michael Ilesanmi’s bold new makeover is surely going to get attention from his fans amid him celebrating his big win in the U.S. after Angela Deem threatened to deport him. Michael is from Lagos, Nigeria. He met Angela on social media eight years ago, before his Before the 90 Days debut. Michael always had a dream of coming to America and may have dealt with Angela’s aggressive tendencies on the daily to make his dream come true, because once Michael came to America, he didn’t waste any time in deciding to go missing.

Angela did not know that Michael was living in Texas when he disappeared. Michael soon revealed that he had a new family and, now, is showing off his brand-new side.

Michael has been living it up in Texas ever since he dumped Angela. He has a new house and new friends whom he calls his family. Michael has also been exploring a new career as an influencer since moving to the States. He has a manager and a PR team and is trying to create funny skits with other content creators. Michael shared a new picture captioned, “New video loading.” It showed the 90 Day Fiancé star in the pool, wearing dark shades with a heavy gold chain and chatting with a friend casually while showing off his newly fit body.
