90 Day Fiancé’s Jovi Dufren Reveals Shocking Opinion About Angela Deem After Michael Ilesanmi Joins New Family
Jovi Dufren from 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? shows incredible support for Angela Deem in her legal fight against Michael Ilesanmi. Angela and Michael first starred on the show in 2018 and soon got engaged. Despite Angela’s suspicions about Michael’s true motives, the couple tied the knot in January 2020. After four years, Michael was able to join Angela in the United States on a spousal visa. Yet, their arguments persisted even when reunited in America. Eventually, Michael ran away from Angela’s house in February 2024, explaining that he felt unsafe.
While many 90 Day Fiancé viewers and cast members are against Angela as she faces her legal battle with Michael, Jovi is firmly in her corner.
Jovi recently appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: Pillow Talk with his wife, Yara Zaya, and shared his opinion on the situation between Michael and Angela, which upset many fans. One X user, @wildwest28, expressed their disappointment with Jovi for suggesting that Michael scammed Angela into coming to the United States.
They commented, “wow Jovi said he’s ‘Team Angela.'” Another user, @TaynEmmsmama, commented, “noticed Jovi was pro Angela on Pillow Talk the other night too!”
Which 90 Day Fiancé Cast Members Support Angela Deem?
The entire 90 Day Fiancé franchise is split into two groups ahead of Michael and Angela’s legal battle. The cast members, including Daniele Gates, Cynthia Decker, Jasmine Pineda, and Kobe Blaise, are rallying behind Michael on social media. Although fewer in number, Angela has also been receiving support from a handful of cast members – Scott Wern, Loren Brovarnik, Lisa Hamme, Liz Woods, and Big Ed Brown. They believe Michael took advantage of Angela’s trust and love and scammed her to be in the United States.
Although it may be surprising, it isn’t unexpected that Jovi sympathizes with Angela after Michael dumped her and joined a new community.
The duo has developed a strong rapport over the past few years while filming Tell Alls for different seasons of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?. They quickly bonded while filming 90 Day: The Last Resort, where Angela supported Jovi during his struggles with Yara. Since Michael cheated on Angela several times, Jovi isn’t wrong to think the Nigerian man used her to obtain a visa.
Jovi may be supporting Angela because he believes she’s more popular and beneficial to him than Michael would ever be. He probably wants to avoid being on Angela’s bad side due to her unpredictable and chaotic nature. Jovi may also think Angela has a better chance of winning the legal battle, which is why he doesn’t want to root for Michael publicly. Ultimately, like many other cast members, the 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? alum doesn’t want to make enemies with Angela.
