90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Michael Ilesanmi is growing stronger as he loses weight while starting a new life in the U.S. Angela Deem and Michael were together for seven years when he planned an escape from Angela’s Hazlehurst house because he was being mistreated by his American wife. Michael walked for five hours and almost got bitten by a dog until he found his way to Texas where he now lives with his friends. While Michael is trying to avoid getting deported, he is also confident that he will never have to leave the U.S.

Michael posted a video in collaboration with fitness influencer moafit24 about their “fitness chat.” Moafit asked Michael how he felt working out. The two of them sat on their exercise bikes while they chatted about Michael’s fitness goals. Michael revealed that it was his first time working out after many years. He said that he usually walks or plays soccer. However, Michael will now be adding “the gym” to his list of workouts. Michael asked Moafit what the benefits of working out are. He assured Michael that working out would make him look good, feel good, and enjoy the process.

What Michael Ilesanmi’s Fitness Journey Means For His New Life

Did Angela Make Michael Gain Weight On Purpose?

Michael used to be quite slim when he first met Angela in 2017. However, over time, Michael started gaining weight. Weight loss also made Michael older than he is. It’s safe to assume that Angela didn’t mind Michael’s weight gain because to her, that would mean he would look less attractive to other women. Angela herself spent thousands on getting weight loss surgery and other cosmetic procedures to look young and glamorous. It didn’t stop Michael from having emotional affairs with random women on the internet. However, Michael did want a better life for himself in America.

With Angela no longer controlling what he does and who he talks to, Michael has been dressing differently and spending time in the U.S. doing things that he couldn’t in Nigeria. Michael was not allowed to meet his friends. In the U.S., Michael’s Nigerian friends are his new family. Michael wants a career in reality TV and wants to become an influencer. He’s hired a manager and a PR agency. Losing weight is just a part of the process. Michael will slowly improve more things about himself. He did get a new life after ending his toxic relationship.

Our Take On Michael Ilesanmi’s New Fitness Journey

Michael Can Market His Weight Loss Transformation To Make Money

Angela didn’t want Michael to use social media when they were together. While other cast members only discuss their health and fitness journeys with fans, Michael never got to do it. Michael can now start documenting his weight loss. He can also get brands to partner with him during this transformation, such as the usual weight-loss teas or gummies. Michael could actually make a profit from just deciding to shed pounds. It’s a win-win situation for the Nigerian man. It remains to be seen if Michael will soon start posting thirst trap gym selfies to woo his fangirls.
