Ariela had been traveling the world since a young age, and she got married to a man named Landro in Argentina at age 17.

The pair got married six months later and remained married for 10 years. However, they separated three years before Ariela began filming the show.


"I was young and immature and I definitely rushed into a responsibility I wasn't ready for," Ariela admitted. "Last year, we got a divorce. I definitely was not looking for love after my divorce. I wanted to get to know myself and see the world."

Ariela therefore booked a cheap trip to Ethiopia and stumbled across a very attractive guy while waiting for a taxi outside a local hotel. She yelled at the guy, "Don't I know you from somewhere?!" And she joked it actually worked to pick him up.

Biniyam is 29 years old and everyone calls him "baby." He's a dancer, choreographer, martial artist and gymnast. Ariela said she didn't want a boyfriend at the time so she did her best to avoid him and not talk to him, but she kept finding herself wanting to spend time with him.

"After dating for three months, I got some unexpected news. I found out I was pregnant," Ariela revealed.

"I am six months pregnant with a baby boy. When I found out I was pregnant, I was really scared, so I came back to the United States for prenatal care."


Ariela, however, planned to move to Ethiopia permanently to be with her boyfriend and deliver her baby there.

Ariela wanted both parents to be present at the birth, and since a K-1 visa was going to take too long for Biniyam to come to America, she felt she had no choice but to move to Ethiopia.

Ariela had her concerns about their language and different culture. Ariela also expected inferior health care to what's offered in the United States, and she said the idea of not having an epidural while in labor really scared her.

Ariela's mother Janice, an emergency trauma nurse, therefore traveled with Ariela to Ethiopia to make sure the maternity ward in the hospital would be safe for Ariela to deliver a baby and that Ariela would have all necessary medications or pain relievers at her disposal.


Ariela's family was also concerned because Biniyam had been married to an American woman before, and the pair had a son together who is now three years old.

"Our story, there are some similarities. She also got pregnant early on in their relationship," Ariela told the cameras.

Ariela told her loved ones that Biniyam is not on speaking terms with that woman, who moved back to the United States with her son. Ariela admitted Biniyam hadn't seen his son face-to-face since, but Ariela's family still questioned Biniyam's motive and whether he was just after a Green Card.

Ariela and Biniyam also follow different religions, with Ariela being raised Jewish and Biniyam being an Ethiopian-Orthodox Christian.

Ariela said she was making "the biggest and riskiest decision" of her life because she was giving up so much to be with him.

Biniyam is a 29-year-old from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, who lived with his brother and his sister-in-law in a one-bedroom house.

Biniyam apparently slept in the living room and his everyone took care of him since he's "the baby" in the family and his parents died from undisclosed illnesses when he was 13 or 14 years old.

Biniyam said his family was suddenly left with nothing but he took care of himself by doing a lot of jobs such as personal training, dancing in a nightclub and MMA fighting.

Biniyam told his friends that he planned to propose marriage to "Ari," but he didn't want history to repeat itself. Biniyam said he was married to the previous American woman for four years but he was only with her for "six to eight months."


Ariela had high expectations when she moved to Ethiopia, and she was terribly disappointed by the dirty and moldy apartment Biniyam had found for them.

It took time for Ariela and Biniyam to find a suitable apartment in Ariela's mind because she required running water and electricity, but Ariela's mother approved of the hospital Ariela would be delivering her baby in.

But Ariela and Biniyam faced problems as Ariela attempted to adjust to life in Ethiopia.

Janice knew Ariela was "in love," but she predicted feelings would fade if Ariela felt alone in raising and taking care of her child.

Biniyam, for example, danced at a nightclub with his ex-girlfriend and didn't make a lot of money. Biniyam also wanted to baptize their son in his religion, and Biniyam's loved ones put a lot of pressure on Ariela to convert to being an Orthodox Christian.


Biniyam believed that if his son got baptized, he'd automatically go to heaven, and so Biniyam admitted that's very important to him, but Ariela didn't want to compromise so much of herself for her man.

Ariela also struggled with homesickness once Janice returned to the United States.

"I'm not looking forward to being alone with you. I am not happy about it," Ariela confessed to Biniyam in tears. "I am not happy about it... I don't want to hurt your feelings, but I feel like you don't know me at all or understand me."

"It'll be okay. I love you. I want to make family with you. I want to be a good father, I promise. But don't leave me," Biniyam begged his girlfriend.

Ariela ultimately decided she really wanted to make her marriage work and loved Biniyam, even though she knew they'd struggle financially without a car in Ethiopia.

Ariela and Biniyam later learned their baby was breech and Ariela's amniotic fluid was low and so Ariela must undergo an emergency C-section, which was not a common procedure in Ethiopia.

"I have never been more scared in my life. My family is not here... I wish more than anything in the world that my mother was here," Ariela told her parents on the phone. "I am about to have abdominal surgery in a place that's very underdeveloped. I don't know what's going to happen."

Ariela didn't feel ready to have her baby at all, and she cried and apparently had a panic attack, so doctors had to put her under general anesthesia in order to calm her down and take out the baby.

Once Ariela woke up, she said becoming a mother was "amazing and shocking," and she immediately fell in love with her son, whom they later named Aviel Biniyam Shibre.

Ariela made Biniyam walk home with their baby since they didn't have a car seat, and the pair had a warm welcome at home. (Although Ariela didn't appreciate watching a sheep be slaughtered in her honor).

Despite her initial opposition, Ariela came around to the idea of baptizing her son in Biniyam's faith in order to show her love and willingness to compromise.


However, Biniyam pushed to have Aviel circumcised, and Ariela was furious about feeling pushed to go through with the procedure that made her baby cry.

"I feel like I didn't really have a choice," Ariela told Biniyam. "I am doing this because of the pressure I got from you."

Ariela admitted she felt like she had "made the wrong decision" in choosing to change her son's body without his consent.

"If I can't even put my foot down and I don't have control over the situation, then I can't be a good mom," Ariela told the cameras.

Biniyam comforted his wife and Avi eventually settled down in his mother's arms. Biniyam was upset because Ariela's trust in him was low and she didn't seem to have much confidence in him, which made him worry about the future of their relationship.


Ariela didn't think she and Biniyam were going to break up, but she said one person winning and one person losing during their disagreements had to stop.

When Ariela's son Aviel was two weeks old, Biniyam had returned to work in order to support his family. Ariela felt like Biniyam was "working nonstop," and while she appreciated him making money for his family, she wished he could stay home more and spend more time with his baby.

Ariela also seemed a little annoyed she was stuck at home while he got to spend time at the club dancing with beautiful women all night.

"I do trust him in a lot of ways, but I think as human beings, there is always temptation to cheat," Ariela told the cameras.

"People are weak and stupid, and I'm no exception. And I hate to say it, but [Biniyam] is no exception. We make mistakes, and I don't want some dumb mistake to affect us forever."

Ariela was worried about her relationship and was feeling terribly lonely at times. She admitted to Biniyam that she didn't trust him, and Biniyam said he hated Ariela's lack of confidence and trust in him.


"Extremely detailed, she look at my phone. If I have to tell her everything, my love for Ari will grow smaller," Biniyam admitted in a confessional.

Ariela said a woman had called Biniyam and when Ariela called her back on the phone, the woman hung up when she heard English being spoken. Ariela wondered if Biniyam was lying and cheating on her, but Biniyam said, "I have no idea what you are talking about."

Ariela never considered herself a jealous person before, but she said Biniyam pushed her to the limits sometimes.

"He's always kind of portraying me as the bad one and I'm a b-tch, but he doesn't tell me anything and we're not communicating. We are more like roommates with a baby," Ariela explained in a confessional.

Ariela then asked to see Biniyam's phone, and he took a minute to look through it first. Ariela called Biniyam "an assh-le" and grabbed the phone out of his hand.


Biniyam accused Ariela of freaking out for no reason and gave her permission to call all the numbers in his phone.

It also rubbed Ariela the wrong way when Biniyam revealed he had to work the night he was supposed to spend time with her parents, Janice and Fred Weinberg.

Biniyam desperately wanted the approval of Ariela's father, but he wasn't going to be around much -- and Ariela was furious.

"This is not okay," Ariela said, as she wondered whether Biniyam was actually meeting up  with another woman. "I am really pissed off... My parents are coming to meet him and meet our family, and he's just going to leave? I am so disappointed right now."

Ariela told Biniyam he looked like a jerk, like he didn't "give a f-ck," and she told her man "to do better" because he was failing to make her happy.


Biniyam gave Janice and Fred a warm welcome and Fred noted that Biniyam had kind eyes, but the married couple hoped Ariela wasn't feeling alone and helpless in Ethiopia.

"Biniyam is a great father, but he has not been around when I need him. Our relationship is not easy," Ariela said in a confessional, adding, "I am so angry right now."

Ariela hated the idea of Biniyam "flirting with people as a means of making money."

Did Ariela and Biniyam work through their problems or split, and is the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way couple still together now?

Ariela gave birth to their son, Avi, in December 2019, according to In Touch Weekly.

Ariela hinted she and Biniyam are still together nearly one year after welcoming their son on Instagram.

Ariela took to Instagram on November 2 and shared a sweet selfie with Biniyam.

The pair posed in what appeared to be the staircase in the apartment they share in Biniyam's hometown of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Comments of love and support poured in for the couple.

And in late October, Ariela posted a photo of Biniyam and herself eating a meal together.

"Ethiopian food is the best! #arielaandbiniyam #ethiopia #kategna #ethiopianfood #90fiancetheotherway #90dayfiancepillowtalk #90dayfiancehappilyeverafter," Ariela captioned the photo, suggesting she's still in Ethiopia.

Around that same time, Biniyam posted a photo on his own Instagram account with Ariela and their son. It also appears that Avi has a nanny in Ethiopia, who joined in the family photo with a big smile.


"Your real family are the people who are always there for you through thick and thin.
#family #future #arielaandbiniyam #90dayfiancetheotherway #90dayfiancepillowtalk #90dayfiance," Biniyam wrote alongside the photo.

Ariela has called the apparent nanny, Tsion, her best friend and sister as well as Avi's second mother.

"You taught me so much about Ethiopian culture, friendship, and sisterhood. You are pure in your heart," Ariela recently wrote on Instagram.

"I know you are a part of g-d walking on this earth disguised as a silly human. But I see through it. Avi and I love you more than anything! I want the world to know about you, that special people like you do exist."

Biniyam is also now selling merchandise that features a photo of Ariela and himself touching foreheads. All of the T-shirts, bags, socks and more say "Love Without Borders" on them.
