Biniyam Shibre, star of 90 Day Fiancé, is yearning for a sense of normalcy and the freedom to share his life openly on social media.
After years of speculation, he and his wife Ariela Weinberg finally confirmed their split during couple’s therapy on 90 Day: The Last Resort Season 2. Despite the separation, they’ve maintained a mature and respectful relationship for the sake of their son—avoiding drama and trauma. Interestingly, Ariela continues to act as Biniyam’s business manager, proving to be quite effective in her role. She’s played a critical part in boosting his career, landing him impressive gigs like a dancer role at The Super Bowl halftime show and a stunt double part in the upcoming Marvel blockbuster Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
However, Biniyam’s ambitions to express his personal joys online are tangled in a web of immigration complications and contractual obligations. Although Ariela and Biniyam are separated, she remains legally married to him—reportedly to help him secure a ten-year green card based on their marriage. But that arrangement comes with strict conditions. Publicly sharing pictures of himself being affectionate with other women could raise red flags with U.S. immigration authorities, especially in the current political climate. Any hint that he's misrepresenting his marital status could result in the cancellation of his green card application—or worse, deportation.
According to one fan’s post in a Facebook group, Biniyam has a new girlfriend named Natasha, a twice-divorced Eastern European woman who is five years his senior. But the fan noticed that the couple's photos keep vanishing from Biniyam's social media pages.
The missing posts, as some speculate, are no accident. It appears Biniyam doesn’t have full control over his social accounts—Ariela, still his manager, may be deleting them. There are several possible reasons for her actions. First, there's the emotional side: even though they’re separated, Ariela might still have lingering feelings, and watching her ex-husband get cozy with someone else could be painful. Second, she's trying to safeguard his immigration case—romantic photos with someone new could compromise the legitimacy of his green card status. And third, both Biniyam and Ariela are still under an NDA with TLC, meaning sharing personal updates online could violate that contract.
As much as Biniyam wants to embrace life’s joys and post freely, he remains constrained by legal, professional, and emotional ties. Ironically, Ariela may now function more like his guardian angel—quietly keeping him from making choices that could unravel everything he’s worked so hard for, including staying close to his kids in the U.S.
