I’ve seen a variety of 90 Day Fiancé franchise couples over the years. Some were less memorable than others. Take 90 Day Fiancé Season 1 couple Louis and Aya Gattone or Season 2 couple Chelsea Macek and Yamir Castillo. There’s no denying these couples had their memorable moments, such as when Aya needed to embrace Louis’ children, ex-wife, and coparenting efforts. Or when Yamir gave up his music career to move to America.

Some of these stars fell to the wayside as more tumultuous duos took over and there’s no denying that the franchise is full of tumultuous characters. Take Angela Deem, for instance. She’s a 59-year-old Meemaw who berated her husband on national television for years. Her actions were so over the top that fans requested she be removed from the series several times. However, when I reflect on the series, there’s one couple in particular that I think takes the cake and changed the way I and many others view international reality TV shows: Mohamed and Danielle Jbali.
’90 Day Fiancé’s Star Mohamed Was the First Obvious “Scammer”
Scammer might be a strong word to use, but there was something definitely off about Mohamed’s actions toward Danielle. When he finally made it to America, he didn’t treat her with respect and didn’t seem interested in any sort of physical contact with Danielle. Even on their wedding day, he refused to seal their marriage with a kiss, claiming it would break the rules of the ongoing muslim holiday. While I understood his reasoning, I couldn’t help but wonder in those moments if he was using his religion as more of an excuse. Then, within a year of getting married, Mohamed fled.

Coincidentally, he fled just in time for the arrival of his green card. Overall, Mohamed gave the franchise the ultimate set of red flags to be wary of. Since Danielle and Mohamed appeared in Season 2, viewers like myself were still unsure of what to expect, especially since most couples did well in the first season. However, it was obvious that this couple would be different from the moment they appeared on-screen. Ultimately, now, whenever I think about green card scammers, or I am searching for red flags about a new 90 Day Fiancé couple, I often compare them to Mohamed as he’s provided a handbook full of red flags to be aware of.
’90 Day Fiancé’ Star Mohamed Threw Inappropriate Low Blows
Their time on screen didn’t end after the couple split up. They later appeared on a few spin-offs that highlighted a few more of their instances together and the relationship continued to deteriorate. However, the actions that really shook the 90 Day Fiancé viewership came from an interview with the couple and the Tell All host, Shaun Robinson. Like myself, Shaun wanted to understand Mohamed’s hesitancy towards Danielle and why he fled. First, Mohamed revealed he was never truly attracted to Danielle, thus confirming my original thoughts of him being a scammer.
But then he revealed even more jawdropping information that ultimately changed the entire franchise. According to Mohamed, Danielle’s privates had a bad smell, which added to his reluctance. The 90 Day Fiancé star also claimed she urinated on him during sex and I don’t think anyone has been able to look at them or the franchise the same again. Mohamed went above and beyond with the low blows. I think Danielle was right when she called him a “user” and he cared far more about making it to America, regardless of who may have gotten hurt or caught in the crossfire.
