Angela Deem’s Legal Battle Over Michael Ilesanmi’s Fundraiser Money from 90 Day Fiancé

Angela Deem's Legal Battle for Fundraiser Money Amidst Divorce from Michael Ilesanmi

Angela Deem from *90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?* is attempting to secure half of the funds accumulated for Michael Ilesanmi through a fundraiser. In late 2023, Angela invited Michael to the United States after nearly four years of marriage, with hopes of establishing a future together. However, their relationship deteriorated when Michael fled from her in February 2024. Angela has since initiated annulment proceedings, alleging that Michael deceived her. As Angela engages in legal battles, Michael is concentrating on strengthening his connection with supporters and has amassed over $51,000 in donations.

According to blogger John Yates, Angela Deem from *90 Day Fiancé* believes she may be entitled to half of the fundraiser proceeds gathered by Michael Ilesanmi.

Reality TV blogger John Yates recently interviewed Angela regarding her legal predicament, which appears to have escalated. He shared insights with fans via Instagram, providing an update on the situation. John disclosed that “Michael is asking for half of everything in a nutshell.”

He elaborated that the circumstances are complex, as Angela also claims ownership of half of everything under Michael’s name, including the fundraiser money. The blogger emphasized, “Since Angela and Michael are still married, half of that GoFundMe money is hers,” suggesting that Michael may have overreached in trying to deceive both Angela and reality TV viewers.

90 Day Fiancé Fans Challenge Angela Deem’s Assertion About Michael’s Fundraiser

It seems Angela may not be able to claim Michael’s fundraising money.

While Angela contends she should receive half of everything Michael possesses, the majority of fans doubt she’ll succeed. In the comments section, netizens expressed skepticism about the Georgia woman’s ability to claim $25,000 from the $50,000 Michael secured through GoFundMe. One social media user, @sassygirl82, stated, “I am a divorce attorney, donations, inheritances, are not considered joint property. She won’t get half.” Another user, @_brendonson_, remarked, “That’s not true. The shared assets cease to accrue at the time of separation.”

Observing how Angela and Michael navigate this situation in the coming months will be intriguing. It wouldn’t be equitable for Angela to claim half of Michael’s assets, nor for him to take half of hers. Both share responsibility for the breakdown of their marriage. Angela erred by disrespecting her husband for nearly seven years, allowing her temper to lead to hurtful remarks. Meanwhile, Michael is culpable for infidelity before their marriage, indicating a lack of commitment.

Angela and Michael would benefit from amicably concluding their relationship. They must acknowledge their incompatibility and accept that their marriage was destined to fail. Finding peace is a far more advantageous choice than pursuing revenge. Prolonged conflict will only exhaust them and drain their resources through legal battles. The cost will be high, without the satisfaction they seek. The *90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?* couple would feel much better if they resolved matters face-to-face and decided to part ways amicably.

*90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days* Season 7 airs Sundays at 8 p.m. EDT on TLC.
