On 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre have divided fans, and now there are concerns that the couple will get spun-off into another series. Though the couple has so far lived in Ethiopia, where Biniyam is from, Ariela has put her foot down and is adamant that they move with their son Aviel back to Ariela’s home in America. Their changing situation provides the opportunity for them to appear on a new show, and viewers are worried that they’ll be seeing a lot more of the couple.
Biniyam and Ariela’s relationship has always been rocky, though fans are often split over which one is at fault for their problems. This season, both Ariela and Biniyam have been the target of criticism. Ariela was slammed by fans for insisting her ex-husband Leandro stay with her and Biniyam in Ethiopia, and for taking their son to America for surgery without letting Biniyam have any input. Biniyam was also dragged for his behavior after Ariela went back to the U.S., and many viewers believe he was cheating on her. In a recent episode, Ariela gave Biniyam an ultimatum, start over with her in America, or live a life without her in it.
The couple’s story has taken a turn with this ultimatum, and now it looks like they’ll be moving to the U.S. Ariela had Biniyam’s back against the wall and was able to make him agree to leave Ethiopia and move with Ariela to America because she knew his history. Biniyam has lost custody of a child before when his ex returned to the U.S., and he wasn’t about to let it happen a second time. Now, the couple is starting the K1-visa process, and their future is beginning to sync up with the franchise’s core series.
Many fans think Ariela and Biniyam are being set up to appear on 90 Day Fiancé, and it makes sense. Navigating the K1-visa process is what 90 Day Fiancé is all about, and because the couple will soon no longer be living overseas, it doesn’t really make sense for them to remain a part of The Other Way cast. Viewers wouldn’t be surprised if the 90 Day Fiancé season 9 cast featured Ariela and Biniyam because the franchise has a track record of casting individuals who have already appeared on the franchise.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 3 is starting to wrap up, and with the Tell-All around the corner, it seems that the network is positioning Ariela and Biniyam to transition to another show. Their situation fits perfectly with 90 Day Fiancé, and given the show’s tendency to recycle cast members, the only reason the next season wouldn’t feature Ariela and Biniyam is if they decide to leave the franchise. The couple has benefited enormously from their time on the show, so they probably won’t walk away from their golden goose, and there’s a huge chance viewers will see Ariela and Biniyam on another franchise series.
