On Instagram, 90 Day Fiancé star Ben Rathbun’s Peruvian girlfriend Mahogany Roca has been flaunting her weight loss makeover, and it's time to discuss her transformation. Mahogany was a random woman who had sent Ben a friend request after falling for his shirtless modeling photos. Ben slid into her DMs and connected over faith with Mahogany, who is 30 years younger than him. However, that wasn’t the only red flag about Mahogany on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. She was also not revealing her real face in her Instagram or Facebook photos. Ben, who was previously duped by a man in Nigeria who was pretending to be a woman, was warned that Mahogany could be a catfish too.
However, former pastor Ben had made up his mind to marry Mahogany. When his daughter tried to tell Ben that Mahogany’s selfie was the fakest photo she’d ever seen, he dismissed her by saying that his girlfriend might have a good phone camera. He was ignoring the fact that all of Mahogany’s photos had been filtered, and another issues was that she tried to avoid meeting him. Upon Ben’s arrival in Peru, Mahogany ghosted him for a day and a half. The Mahogany who eventually showed up to meet Ben looked nothing like the woman on IG. Meanwhile, Ben was simply happy that Mahogany was a real woman, and didn't appear to care about her photos being a “little doctored.”
Even though most fans thought this Mahogany was fake, and an actor roped in by TLC to play the part of whoever was talking to Ben, others seemed to sense that Mahogany was insecure about her appearance. There was no other reason for her to have used some camera app to make her skin smoother, get silkier hair, or look slimmer. However, Mahogany may not need to use these tactics anymore since she’s visibly had a glow-up since participating in 90 Day Fiancé. Mahogany’s latest Instagram photos and videos show that she’s lost a considerable amount of weight. She has chosen a new hair color, and her locks appear silkier than they ever were on the show. It looks like she’s also using less photo editing tools, and embracing her naturally rosy cheeks.
Because Mahogany is still as secretive as she ever was, she hasn’t directly addressed her makeover. Mahogany also hasn't revealed how much weight she’s lost, or shared any diet or exercise secrets. However, the same Mahogany that claimed she was too shy to video call Ben doesn’t hesitate to strike seductive poses for the camera, or launch her own Cameo page. As per Ben, Mahogany didn’t feel comfortable doing the TV show. Still, Mahogany’s life has completely changed, seemingly for the better, after B90. Whether it's unclear if she got paid a lot to be on 90 Day Fiancé, Mahogany’s fame has skyrocketed. She’s now got a verified Instagram profile, with 36k plus followers. She's even getting influencer collaboration deals with international brands, such as Estée Lauder.
When Mahogany was on 90 Day Fiancé, she received tons of criticism for various things, such as editing her photos, dating a man twice her age, and claiming that an AirBnb was her real apartment. By the looks of it, things have changed a great deal for Mahogany now, as most of the comments she gets are from thirsty followers who want her to start an OnlyFans page. Meanwhile, Ben and Mahogany’s relationship status remains unknown. He was seen promoting Mahogany’s Cameo page on Instagram recently, but she didn't respond to him or say thanks. There’s a fair chance that Mahogany and Ben’s storyline hasn’t ended, and that fans will see them return for a new 90 Day Fiancé spin-off. Until then, fans can keep following Mahogany, and appreciate her glow-up.
