Just last month, 90 Day Fiance fans speculated that Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre might be over.
There were hints. But it looks like the pessimists were right. She and Bini seem to be together.
That doesn’t mean that Ariela isn’t interested in making a change, however.
She just debuted a stunning new look. And some fans wonder if this is a hint that she’s making a 90 Day comeback.
Just a few days ago, Ariela Weinberg took to Instagram to unveil her brand new look.
Fans (and detractors alike) first got to know Ari as a very, very pregnant traveler who was returning to Ethiopia to live with the father of her future child.
Now, her fresh blonde tints and polished curls are showing that she’s feeling more in her element.
Very naturally, some fans speculated that Ari’s new look is a prelude to a return to the world of reality television.
We see this all of the time, whether it’s on 90 Day Fiance or Real Housewives: someone appears on reality TV, then undergoes a glow-up after seeing themselves on screen.
Maybe Ari was tired of seeing herself on camera with the casual bedhead of a busy mom who’s just done a lot of traveling. Especially if she’s going to appear on a new season with her husband.
Well, if we can believe Ariela, that’s not the case.
She recently told fans that she’s not planning to continue with reality television. Not on camera herself, anyway.
Instead, she hopes to take on a behind-the-scenes job as a producer in some capacity. After all, she has a lot of experience with how reality TV works.
There are some pretty infamous examples of Ariela abruptly changing her mind on decisions that are, frankly, much more consequential than whether or not she appears on reality TV.
(For a number of fans of the show, Ari listing all of the reasons that she didn’t want to take a choice from her infant son but then caving and circumcising him anyway was a turning point in whether or not people liked her)
However, assuming that she does not pull a 180 on this (again, less important) topic, Ari’s not planning a 90 Day Fiance comeback.
Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre remain one of 90 Day Fiance‘s most memorable couples. Particularly among 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way cast members.
Why? Well, they were divisive, controversial, and elicited strong reactions from viewers.
Part of that was some shady editing. Not the worst case that we’ve seen, but they sure didn’t do Ari any favors. The rest came from their own personalities and the natural ups and downs of their relationship.
Ari and Bini seem to be fundamentally incompatible people. They have different goals, different boundaries, different communication styles, different faiths, and different values. It’s a mess.
The one thing that they do have in common is little Avi.
And their mess is just his problem for life, we suppose.
