Michael Ilesanmi of 90 Day Fiancé fame goes missing on bride Angela Deem just two months after moving to the US from Nigeria

90 Day Fiancé star Michael Ilesanmi sparked serious concern after going 'missing' just two months after he moved to the US from his native Nigeria to live with his wife - who is 22 years his senior. 

Michael's wife Angela Deem, 58, from Jefferson County, Georgia, claimed in a recent YouTube video posted by celebrity blogger John Yates that her spouse, 36, had gone 'missing' on Friday, February 23. 

The embattled couple first met in 2018 on season two of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, and they later got married and paid visits to each other's native countries.

But their romance has taken a very bizarre and surprising turn in recent days, with Angela claiming that she had been in touch with the police about Michael's disappearance, only for it to emerge mid-way through John's live broadcast that he had not only been found 'safe', but that he had also contacted cops on a 'burner' phone to say he'd been 'in fear' for his life. 

He also requested that his wife be kept in the dark regarding his whereabouts, prompting a furious Angela to claim he must have 'planned' his disappearance. 

90 Day Fiancé star Michael Ilesanmi has been found after his wife Angela Deem reported him missing - just two months after he moved to the US from his native Nigeria (seen on the show)

In a bizarre live broadcast filmed with Angela, celebrity blogger John Yates claimed that Michael had told police he did not want his wife to be given his location 

John and Angela filmed two livestream videos together within the space of a few hours - the first of which saw the 90 Day Fiance star alleging that her husband had gone missing. 

Then, just seven hours later, she and John returned to the video-streaming site to update concerned fans, revealing that Michael had turned up. 

While John attempted to update viewers during the second of two livestreams, Angela yelled: 'Breaking news. I'm in total f**king shock right now but not really and that's all I can say.

'John take over please because I'm in f*****g shock.'

'I'll just rip it off like a Band Aid,' John then began. 'Michael is safe, there's the good news.

'He reached out to the police moments after [the first] live. Right after [the first] live ended, Angela got a phone call from the police here stating that they were contacted by Michael. They verified it was him. 

'He did have a burner phone or like another phone, a phone that nobody knew about and on that phone he had pictures of his passport, the one that he left. So they verified his ID, it's him.'

John added that after officers verified his identity, something 'wild' soon followed - as Angela yelled from off-camera, 'Here's the yahoo boy part!' - alluding to the nickname often given to online fraudsters, particularly those of Nigerian descent. 

John continued: 'He told the police that he was in fear of his life here and he did not want Angela knowing his location.'

Angela also revealed that the pair were together just five days ago in New York and that his disappearance came out of the blue.

Viewers were also made privy to the fact that Michael arrived in the US from Nigeria just before Christmas 2023, in order to live with his wife. 

John vehemently defended his pal Angela against Michael's claims that he had been 'fearing' for his life by explaining that 'no one was locked up here' and pointing out that the pair had vacationed together in New York and Florida in recent weeks.

However Angela couldn't be consoled and at this point accused of her estranged husband of being a 'lying s**t'.

In January 2023, Angela told producers on TLC show  90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? that 'divorce was definitely on the table' between her and Michael 

Her confession about the status of their relationship came amid furious rumors that Michael had been unfaithful to her  

She said off camera: 'I don't know why people think I'm not human... you know what I mean?

'I'm a woman, I stand as a woman. When you sneak behind my back and do lying s**t on me I'm not fine anymore. 

'I'm f*****g mad as hell. I was worried thinking he was hurt.'

In a now-deleted TikTok, Angela had previously told fans that, before her husband disappeared, he left behind his phone and wallet. 

She also said she reached out to his family before contacting police but her efforts were unfruitful.

She then used the platform to plead for his save return - before later doing a complete 180 and questioning whether he 'planned' the ordeal the whole f*****g time.

'This is not funny. This is real s**t...' she added. 

'I’m telling you now. I’m not going to let you f*****g come here if you didn’t love me.'

Fans posed questions about the possibility of Michael pulling an immigration stunt to achieve US citizenship, to which she replied: 'If Michael is really missing and doesn’t contact us, immigration can take over. That’s all I can tell you.'

The incident is the latest in a string of challenges for the couple, who were recently dogged by allegations of cheating on Michael's part.

The embattled couple first met in 2018 on season two of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, and they later got married and paid visits to each other's native countries 

The pair tied the knot in Nigeria in 2020 - however it took several more years before Michael made the move to the US to live with his wife  

In December 2022, a heartbroken Angela sobbed as she revealed how her husband Michael had been allegedly unfaithful to her in a sneak peek of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?

In the clip, which was obtained by People, Angela described how Michael had been cheating on her with a 31-year-old woman he became connected to on Instagram.

Angela recounted just how 'happy' she had been in her relationship with Michael following a trip to Nigeria - before a friend alerted her to his indiscretions.

'When I got back from Nigeria, me and Michael was on a good note. We were happy when we left, we was back to normal like two f**king weeks we've been on the phone every night, 24/7 like we used to,' Angela told a producer.

'The spark was there, the love was still there, we were on the way to getting ready to bring him here and be husband and wife. Like, we love each other and I was happy. I was real happy.

'And then my friend sent me texts. Michael cheating on me online. This girl is 31 and they met on his Instagram. And that's why he didn't want to take his Instagram down!'

Angela revealed Michael had been in communication with the woman for two months before she played a voice note her husband had sent to the woman.

'They've been talking the whole time we've been fighting. For two months. Not only while I was in Nigeria, but since I've come back, Michael's still continued to talk to this girl.

After learning that her husband was safe, Angela quickly pivoted from concern to rage, accusing Michael of being a 'lying s***'  

'I know this because I've got screenshots. Then I got a voice note. And the way he was talking to her was the way he would talk to me on the voice note. So I knew that was him.

'Telling her to pick up the phone, baby I love you. I got him right here,' she said before playing the voice note Michael had sent the woman.

In that same season of the show, Angela told producers that 'divorce was definitely on the table', with the reality star insisting that she was 'definitely going to file', although she conceded that this didn't mean she was 'going to sign'. 

Angela was supported by other stars on the TLC franchise, as she said Ilesanmi 'went too far' with his dishonesty and infidelity, which left her 'mentally exhausted' and 'very hurt.' 

She added, 'With Michael's lying and all, and all the stuff I just found out, I don't think he's ever loved me. I think he loves me 'cause everything I've done for him, but he can't tell me why he's in love with me.' 

The couple's issues have played out on the show, and Michael previously admitted to cheating on Angela in the early days of their relationship. 

Despite the admission, she ultimately forgave him and they married in his native Nigeria in 2020. 

He then waited four years before finally being able to live with his wife in the US two months ago.
