90 Day Fiancé star Angela Deem’s Maury appearances leave fans shocked every time they stumble across the reruns on TV. The 56-year-old Angela quickly became a controversial cast member, following her 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 2 debut in 2018. Angela and Michael Ilesanmi never looked like a couple that was meant to be together, but they married in January 2020, only to be separated for two years by the pandemic. As rumors of Angela and Michael’s split continue to circulate, her old Maury episodes are also trending.
90 Day Fiancé's Angela used to work as a hospice nursing assistant. She was supporting her family in Hazlehurst, Georgia, including her ill and aged mother Glenda (who has sadly passed away), two daughters Scottie and Skyla Deem, and their three children. Angela’s daughter Scottie played a major part in her mother’s storyline. Scottie was involved when Angela was flying to Nigeria for the first time, so she could meet her online boyfriend, Michael. However, back then, fans didn't know that Angela’s daughter Scottie was charged with 11 counts of child molestation, one count of aggravated child molestation, and one count of statutory rape. The charges related to incidents between July 1 and August 31, 2017.
90 Day Fiancé Star Angela & Daughter Scottie Have Been On Maury Twice
Angela’s first Maury episode aired on February 2015, with Scottie and Scottie’s then-boyfriend, Terry. Scottie and Terry had welcomed a little girl, Anna (via Maury.). Angela had claimed Terry wasn’t the father of Scottie’s baby, and that Scottie had a one-night stand with her ex-boyfriend, Chris, two weeks before she got pregnant with Anna. However, a DNA test proved Angela wrong.
After the test results were released, Angela didn’t back down. In November 2016, Angela, Scottie, and Terry featured in their second Maury stint. This time around, Scottie and Terry welcomed a new baby that they named Ariah. However, it was also revealed that due to stress caused by Angela, Scottie and five-month-old Ariah were sick. Once again, a Maury paternity test confirmed that 90DF villain Angela was wrong. Terry was indeed the dad of Scottie’s child.
What Shocks 90 Day Fiancé Fans About Angela On Maury
When Angela’s Maury episode had a rerun on TV recently, fans took to Reddit to discuss it. Surprisingly, not a lot of current 90 Day Fiancé viewers are aware of the fact that Angela has two daughters, as her offspring Skyla is the only one who makes regular appearances with the six grandkids. On a thread by u/lushspice, a viewer u/Karmic-Vision commented, “Is this the daughter that went to prison for pedophilia?” to which lush/rational’s reply was, “Yes. Only Scottie was on Maury/Tricia.” Upon a few others commenting, “Holy **** I don’t think I knew that” and “WHAT,” u/lush_rational explained about 90 Day Fiancé star Angela, “Angela’s daughter Scottie went to prison for indecent acts with a minor. (Age of consent in GA is 16 and she was in her 30s).”
Angela’s troubled and abusive behavior on 90 Day Fiancé undoubtedly shocks viewers. A lot of franchise fans want TLC producers to fire her. Realistically, that probably won't happen, so some viewers have chosen to skip Angela and Michael’s segments entirely. Angela doesn't seem to be going anywhere, since she was recently filming in the Florida Keys with a bunch of co-stars, in what is rumored to be a 90 Day Fiancé spin-off about couples therapy. Angela has always had an explosive personality, so the fact that she screamed and shouted at her relatives in public is just par for the course, as revealed by Angela's episodes on Maury.
