Cleo Corraine has come a long way since featuring on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. The 32-year-old Italian model living in London won fans over when she appeared in season 6 and opened up about her struggles. She revealed she was a transwoman who hadn’t had gender-affirming surgery yet and talked about her autism. Cleo pursued a 30-year-old American man, Christian Allgood, who had an extroverted personality. Cleo couldn’t relate to him but still loved him for who he was. Unfortunately, Christian broke Cleo’s heart with his lack of sensitivity.
Christian had only dated women in the past. Therefore, he had a tough time accepting his new relationship with a transwoman. During the show, he did various things that hurt Cleo. He lied about their physical intimacy in front of cameras, didn’t understand Cleo’s feelings, and talked to another woman at a bar. While Christian blamed his extroverted personality for his actions, Cleo felt he probably didn’t care for her. Surprisingly, Christian proved Cleo wrong by proposing to her at the Tell All and asking her to be a part of his family.
Cleo & Christian Broke Up
Cleo faced numerous ups and downs with Christian in 2023. After 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days ended, she flew to meet Christian in America and even spent time with his relatives. However, public scrutiny and the fear of pursuing a long-distance relationship forced her to end her relationship with the man. In October 2023, Cleo shared she had split from Christian due to said issues. She seemed heartbroken about her breakup, but many fans felt she dodged a bullet. Christian didn’t seem like a match for Cleo, so it seemed appropriate that he was out of her life for good.
Cleo Confirmed She & Christian Got Back Together
In December 2023, Cleo surprised everyone when she revealed that she had reconciled with Christian after their one-month-long breakup. She posted a photo of them holding hands and announced she was back together with the American man.
The former cast member wrote, “we are still together. In all honesty…it shouldn’t be that surprising.”
Cleo revealed that the time she wasn’t with Christian was hellish. She shared that it was full of pain, betrayal, and heartaches, but things eventually worked out. Cleo added, “respect the fragile love between a trans woman and a cis man.”
However, Cleo and Christian did not stay together for long the second time around. Cleo announced their breakup in February 2024. The pair have remained broken up since then. While it is understandable that breaking up is hard for both parties, Cleo and Christian’s relationship had many red flags, and a lack of understanding, awareness, and respect was missing from Christian’s side, which was sure to drive Cleo permanently away at some point.
Cleo Is Still Modeling
Apart from her relationship, Cleo is also focusing on her modeling career. The former 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days star has posted numerous professional photoshoots of herself, showing she’s growing daily. In November 2023, Cleo posted modeling pictures inspiring fans to have strength.
A month before, she posted photos from a flower garden, embracing a colorful yet uncommon outfit. Cleo has gained nearly 60,000 followers on her Instagram, often influencing her followers and promoting products. The 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days cast member has been collaborating with different brands and opening up about her new journey toward getting gender-affirming transition surgery.
Cleo Has Officially Moved On From Christian
Cleo is officially over Christian, as she recently debuted the new person in her life. Since her breakup from Christian in February, Cleo has been posting a lot of brand promotions and also shared posts about fun outings she’s had with friends.
In June 2024, Cleo revealed that she had gender-reaffirming surgery in Dallas, Texas. While her post was vague about the specifics of what she had done, it later came out that she shaved her brow bones and lifted her eyes and eyebrows.
Cleo’s confidance has soared since then, and she’s felt healed enough to jump into a new relationship. On September 17, 2024, Cleo hard launched her new partner, a woman named Velv (@queen.velveteen). The picture Cleo shared was of her hugging Velv from behind happily as they sat on a couch together. In the caption of her new girlfriend post, Cleo talked about being mistreated by people in the past and how she was going through a very hard time in her life. The sad nature of the caption was overshadowed by Cleo’s words of admiration for her new partner.
“Love you @queen.velveteen for truly being you. I love you forever.”
While Cleo may have been dealing with hardships lately, she seems like she’s on her way to true happiness. She has transformed herself, and her love life is following suit. Christian and Cleo were not right for each other, but their 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days journey was entertaining and necessary for the pair.
