90 Day Fiance: Jibri Bell Prepares for Miona Bell to Arrive

On 90 Day Fiance, Jibri Bell prepares for his fiancé Miona Bell to arrive in America. Or as mentioned already in Soap Dirt, his wife. He is a musician with a passion for art and music. He expresses his creative personality with a montage of tattoos and crazy hair.

It’s hard to tell who the portrait tattoos are exactly. But it definitely looked like one of the Golden Girls on his torso and maybe the late Sonny Bono on his calf. Jibri does solo music and is also the front man for a band called The Black Serbs.

He met his BFF Daveed in high school. Daveed is a refugee from Serbia, so Jibri Bell traveled with him to his home country. He fell in love with the country and its culture. While touring there later he met Miona Bell. Who he describes as a “small sexy fireball”.

Jibri and Miona hit it off. And he admits it was butterflies at first sight. He later proposed in Thailand. But the pandemic altered their plans. His band is now inactive. And he’s living back home in South Dakota with his mom Mahala and dad Brian.

On 90 Day Fiance, Jibri Bell has mad respect for his mom. Who he admits doesn’t play. She has concerns about Miona’s social media. Because her photos are “attention seeking”. Jibri admits Miona Bell seeks a Kardashian lifestyle and would prefer L.A. over the prairie.

Even though he’s broke right now, he says he’s a hustler. And could sell salt to a slug or meat to a vegan. But what he can’t sell is small town life to his wife. Or BS to his mother.

90 Day Fiance: Kara Bass Falls for Guillermo Rojer

On the new season of 90 Day Fiance, Kara Bass is head over heels for her fiancé Guillermo Rojer. Kara is a self-described “Jill of all trades”. Her jobs have included singing, dancing, voicing audio books and the latest: big balloon creations.

Kara Bass is upbeat and traveled the world before the pandemic. During a temporary job in the Dominican Republic, she fell fast for Guillermo Rojer. Although he’s a bit younger, she was charmed by his good looks. Especially his pouty lips. And his grandma agrees.

So, the pair ended up living together when Kara returned to the Dominican Republic. Guillermo proposed but the job ended and again the pandemic got in the way. The good news is that Guillermo, who is actually a native of Venezuela, is approved for the K-1 visa.

Kara video calls Guillermo to be sure he’s got everything together for his trip. They even share an adopted dog Chiqui Mama. She joins them on the video call.

On 90 Day Fiance, Guillermo is a little concerned since his passport has expired. Kara Bass says there is an agreement between the U.S. and Venezuela that will allow travel based on the approved visa.

But Kara worries that since Guillermo Rojer is only 23, he’s not taking things seriously should he run into an issue. So she boards a plane and travels back to the Dominican Republic to help him travel back home with her.

Emily Bieberly Waits for Her Fiance Kobe Blaise to Finally Meet Their Son

Emily Bieberly is an admitted wild child who grew up in Salina, Kansas. Although she had a carefree childhood filled with horseback rides and small town charm, she wanted more. So she went to college and partied more than she studied.

Then spent a summer in China where she met her 90 Day Fiance, Kobe Blaise. She was drawn to Kobe’s strong arms among other things. And it turns out he was actually an international underwear model.

The two shared a night of passion on the shower floor. And then shortly after that Emily Bieberly felt a little weird. And it turns out Emily was pregnant. So it was too late to say “It wasn’t me” banging on the bathroom floor. She was a little nervous to share the news with Kobe.

But he was ecstatic when he found out. Kobe Blaise proposed but was later denied a visitor visa and again the world was in the throes of the pandemic restrictions. So, Kobe has never met their adorable son Kobun who’s now 17 months old.

Emily and Kobun live with her parents and sister. The family has questions about how Kobe Blaise and Emily will support themselves. It seems her dad will be supporting them until Kobe can work which could be 6 months. He warns them not to get pregnant again.

Emily Bieberly admits that she too has concerns. She’s gained weight and is in mom mode now. Not to mention sharing one bathroom with 5 adults and a toddler.

90 Day Fiance: Bilal Hazziez Has a Trick up His Sleeve

Bilal Hazziez is a successful real estate agent and investor from Kansas City, Missouri on 90 Day Fiance. He is divorced and a father of two daughters. Bilal is engaged to Shaeeda Sween, a yoga instructor in Trinidad.

Bilal shows a house to his client who also happens to be his ex wife Shahidah. He lets her know Shaeeda is coming to visit in a few days. She is supportive, but cautions him to be careful that her motives are right, since Bilal “flexes” his wealth on social media.

Bilal denies this. He claims when they video chat she only sees the white wall behind him. Shahidah also brings up the fact that Bilal Hazziez is very crazy when it come to neatness and everything being in a perfect place.

He assures her that he is in love with Shaeeda Sween. And admits for awhile he was hesitant to move forward with dating her since her name is so similar to Shahidah’s. But he has spent time with her in person before travel was restricted.

It’s finally time for Shaeeda Sween to arrive on 90 Day Fiance. Bilal Hazziez has hatched a little plan to test whether she’s with him for the right reasons. He’s included his sister in the scheme. He borrows a plain white work van to pick her up at the airport rather than his Mercedes.

And plans to take her first to his modest run-down childhood home rather than the bougie home he owns now. His sister has some concerns about the couple too. Will she pass the test? Till next time!
