As Angela Deem’s marriage to her Nigerian husband, Michael continues to deteriorate, her wish to get more plastic surgery bumped into an obstacle on Sunday’s episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?.
Angela got rejected for facelift surgery. She is still recovering from weight loss and breast reduction surgeries. While she has stuck to her new diet, she hasn’t been able to quit smoking.
As a result, Dr. Saadat, who was slated to perform her facelift surgery to remove loose skin under her chin rejected her for surgery. Angela’s Southern charm didn’t help her convince the doctor, who refused to do the surgery unless she stopped smoking.

Angela started smoking at age 13 and has never been able to stop smoking since then. Angela lost her temper when the doctor said he would require to sign a contract stating that she is going to stop smoking.

On top of that, Dr. Saadat that he would do a nicotine test in four weeks to ensure she stopped smoking before doing the surgery.
“People feel entitled about the surgery, because it’s a cosmetic procedure, and all of a sudden, somebody’s telling them, ‘No, we’re not doing the surgery,” he told cameras.
“That’s very disappointing to them. So, I mean, Angela, she needs to stop smoking. I don’t know if Angela is going to be successful. … At this point, it’s up to Angela.”
Left with no option, Angela accepted that she would first quit smoking and then get the surgery.
“I am kind of leaving on a disappointing note, because usually, I always get my way,” she told him. “I’m the one messing it up and it’s got to be me to clean it up.”
The 54-year-old American grandma was back to her old habits during the car ride back to her hotel, smoking a cigarette as she called her husband. She accused Michael of not supporting her during her surgeries but didn’t point out that he has never wanted her to get plastic surgery.
“He’s gave me zero support since my surgeries,” she told cameras. “Before this, we talked on the phone all day long. But if I don’t reach out to him first, he doesn’t even check on me. It’s like he doesn’t even care.”
“I’ve been through hell recovering from these surgeries, and Michael don’t give a f**k,” she continued. “I mean, what kind of husband don’t care about their wife? You know, I’m a loner, and I’ve done things on my own my whole life. And I was hoping, since I married Michael, that would change. But I guess I’m going to have to continue doing things on my own, because Michael’s not supporting me at all. I don’t need no man’s help. Never have, never will.”

Meanwhile, in Nigeria, Michael’s family thought Angela was selfish and that the couple’s age difference makes her feel like she could control him. His family feels spending $25,000 for a facelift was not OK, and they could have used that money on trying to have a baby.

“I don’t like it at this moment, so I just stopped calling her,” he told me about dealing with the situation. “Since Angela wasn’t listening to me regarding her surgery, I started giving her the silent treatment. And it’s so difficult. … I wish my wife would at least respect my opinion, sometimes, you know? Make decisions together, not totally her. Let us be as one as one couple, you know, one body.”
“You know, marriage is nothing like I thought it would be,” he continued. “She’s making big decisions without me with the surgery. And now, all I and Angela do is fight, fight, fight. At this point, I don’t know if I’ll ever be happy being married to Angela.”
In an interview with ET, Angela opened up about the new season of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?. She said she has now lost 100 pounds since her weight loss surgery. She also said that Michael didn’t support her, which led her to seriously consider divorcing him.
“I can tell you he was a butt,” she said. “He was a total a**. I can tell you that I was in this alone. You know, I did my boobs and he loved my boobs. I don’t know if it was just him not being a part of it because he’s over there at the time or what, but we went through it.”
