Ariela Weinberg Gets Wine in the Face Over Biniyam Shibre's Secret on 90 Day Fiance (Recap)

May 02, 2022

90 Day Fiance Season 9, Episode 3 continued several stories while bringing on one of the franchise's most polarizing couples.

Ariela and Biniyam have Bini's paperwork and his K-1 visa, but he hasn't told his family.

Telling them at the last minute makes things worse -- especially for Ariela, who somehow ends up getting the blame (and a face full of wine).

Bilal's twisted test for Shaeeda, showing her a fake house and deducting points when she notices that something is wrong, has thus far earned her a D-.

Without knowing that she's being tested, can she still get her grade up enough to see his real house?

Emily and Kobe are looking forward to spending time together, but Kobe is eager to meet his son for the first time.

Jibri brings Miona home to meet his parents, but they just can't see eye-to-eye on when to make the move from Rapid City.

Yvette meets Mohamed at the airport, but despite their reunion being uneventful, things just feel ... odd.

1. Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre

Ariela weinberg and biniyam shibre back now with documentation
One of The Other Way's most talked-about, most polarizing couples is now ready to make their way to the United States via the K-1 visa. Biniyam now has his passport ... after Ariela handled all of the paperwork to get it. They, and baby Avi, are just days away from making this journey and leaving Ethiopia behind.

2. But Biniyam hasn't told anyone yet

Biniyam shibre i didnt tell them still now
The K-1 process takes a long time, and Bini had many opportunities to tell his friends and family. Instead, fearful of how they will respond when they find out that he is moving away, he has postponed telling them until now. (Presumably, they assume that he and Ariela are filming again for another season of The Other Way)

3. Most of us are familiar with Ari and Bini's story

Biniyam shibre im married american woman ex wife recap
But for those who don't (not everyone who watches the flagship series watches all of the spinoffs -- there are so, so many), Biniyam explains how he was married once before to a different American woman whom he impregnated. Unlike with Ariela, he did not get to witness that baby's birth. And now it has been several years since he last saw his firstborn son in person.

4. He and Ariela have their own son, Avi

Biniyam shibre recalls saying goodbye to ariela weinberg baby av
Avi was born in Ethiopia -- Ariela flew there to give birth so that Bini could be there. However, Avi had a hernia and required surgery, so towards the end of their more recent season, Ari flew back with Avi to New Jersey for the hernia surgery. While she was gone, Biniyam's existing behaviors -- partying with friends, being unreachable for lengths of time -- became even worse.

5. C'mon, man

Biniyam shibre i switched off my phone
Biniyam admits to the camera that while his fiancee and son were overseas, he would go out to clubs with friends, hang out with his buddies, and often turn his phone off or put it into airplane mode, making himself unreachable. He had these behaviors before, but then he was always (eventually) coming home to Ari. Instead, Bini was home alone, turning the house into a dance studio. While he insists that the women he invited over were just friends and that he did not cheat ... things got pretty bad. For a guy who talks so much about being afraid of losing his family again, he didn't really seem to make much of an effort to be a good partner for a long time. That changed when Biniyam met Ariela halfway, temporarily moving to Kenya to be with her and Avi and patch things up.

6. Fans generally like Ariela's family

Janice weinberg chats ahead of k 1 trip neighbors family support
Her mother, Janice, has been part of their story since the first day. We see her chatting with Ariela, wondering how Bini will adapt to being neighbors with Ariela's family. Ari's parents are renting an apartment that isn't too far from their home so that their daughter and future son-in-law and their grandson can be close at hand, which is a wonderful gesture. Ari admits that Bini has asked her to not tell her parents about their disagreements, because he wants them to have a good impression of him.
