Something tells me 90 Day Engagement: Before the 90 days Star Chidi Ikpeamaeze never loved Rayne Fernandez and has ulterior motives to date her. Rayne is a single mom of two from New Mexico. Rayne had welcomed two kids from two different relationships but had never experienced feelings of being wanted until she met Chidi. I was kind of amazed that Chidi and Rayne had known each other for five years but only decided to meet for the show. The 33-year-old Chidi became the franchise’s first blind cast member when Rayne went to meet him in season 7.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Chidi was the one who proposed the idea of them going on a 90 day engagement to Española resident Rayne. Rayne already spoiled their storyline after the first episode, What I feel is that she is not interested in reality TV. She also doesn’t have a public Instagram account, so I doubt she wanted to become a social media influencer like Tigerlily Taylor or Vanja Grbic from her season. Rayne’s social media updates reveal that she is a woman hurting after being betrayed by someone she loved. She regrets every decision she took after meeting Chidi.
Chidi was blinded by Rayne
Is Chidi really “terrified” of telling Rayne the truth?
Five years ago, the man of her dreamsFell into Raynes lap.“It was Rayne who sent Chidi a friend request, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t acting sketchy when they started talking. I remember Chidi telling the cameras that he was”Afraid“To tell Rayne he was blind when they first met. Chidi thought it would have”AfraidShe left. He claimed that he did not know that he was talking to a white woman. Chidi only told her that he was blind when Raine sent him a booty picture, and he didn’t respond.
Chidi didn’t tell Rayne about his celibacy vow
How many things did Chidi hide from Rayne?
Chidi, not telling Rayne he can’t see, was just one of the secrets he kept from her. I was shocked when Chidi said that he had made a vow that he would never have sex with any woman until he married her. Chidi knew that Rayne was coming to see him in person after five years of knowing him and she wanted to be intimate with him. While she was ready to go see him, Chidi did not tell Rayne that she would sleep in a different room and that they would not have sex.
“It’s something I can’t bear to tell her on the phone, but I just hope she understands my commitment to God.”
Chidi didn’t call his sister during the chicken scene
Chidi knew that Rayne did not like to watch live animals tortured
I mean, As her boyfriend of five years, Chidi should have known about Rayne’s love for chickens. It wasn’t like she didn’t eat them, but Raine had 130 chickens on her farm and formed a bond with a bird she saw at a local Nigerian market. I saw Chidi practically giggling as he turned to the owner of the meat shop and said, “She does not like killing animals– If he should have told this to his sister before the market visit. It was Chidi’s duty to inform his sister about him before the market visit.
Instead of trying to pacify Raine, Chidi stood away from her and continued to smile.
To me, it seemed as if Chidi and Victoria had already decided that they were going to take Rayne to the market and to the chicken shop. They wanted to see Rayne lose her temper on camera So they can prove that she has some issues that she was dealing with. Reina did not want to see a live chicken being killed before her eyes. I’m sure Victoria could have bought pre-processed chicken from the same market, but it wouldn’t have ruined Rayne’s reputation on the show by making her look deranged.
Chidi tarnishes Rayne’s reputation for good
90 Day Fiance fans think Rayne is irrational
It wasn’t just the chicken episode that Chidi used to make Rayne appear unhinged. He posted and deleted a long post on Instagram that Sunbearemii Reposted. This time, I watched Chidi give a brand new excuse for not sleeping with Rayne. He said it was due to the “Unsettling, alien and mystical things” Rayne mentioned during their discussions. I couldn’t believe what I was reading. Chidi claimed that Rayne was able to communicate with the dead and that she asked him to be ready to be sacrificed. He also mentioned vampires and cannibals.
I wonder if Chidi was so bothered by Rayne talking about vampires, cannibals, and a force that enters their sexual partners, why did he even allow her to come visit him? Chidi could have asked Rayne to cancel her trip and dumped her, but he invited her over. It’s hilarious as Chidi wrote he wanted”Observe her and decide“If your horror stories were”Genuine or just bluffs.“ As I read Chidi’s post, I found myself wondering why a deeply religious man like Chidi would want to be associated with such a dangerous woman.
Rayne accused Chidi and family of being fame hungry
Rayne says Chidi and his sister are after money
In October 2024, 90 days the melanated way Shared screenshots of an Instagram post by Rayne where the American woman revealed that she had broken up with Chidi. Rayne wrote that Chidi wanted to marry her, but he couldn’t because of his family. She accused Chidi of being “Breastfeeding“And claimed he didn’t make any decisions on his own. The most surprising part of Rayne’s confession to me was her claim Chidi and his family have the show for “The money and the opportunity.” Rayne wrote that she went to meet Chidi because she saw hope.
“He started caring about money, he started drifting.”
All the dots have started joining together for me. To me, it now looks like Chidi always cares about money. While he may have liked Rayne in the beginning, he stayed with her in the relationship because of the perks. Rayne seemed to have helped Chidi financially. But he stabbed her in the back when he realized there was more money to be made as a reality TV star. I’m sure he’s heard of the show before and of these cast members for him who are from Lagos, the very popular Michael Ilesanmi and Usman”Sojaboy“Omar.
Why did Chidi make a fan page for himself in March 2024?
Now, more proof of Chidi using Rayne for fame has surfaced online. Bloggers like 90dayfiance_alexa have found details of Chidi creating online fan pages for himself months before his 90 Day Engagement: Before the 90 days Debut. Considering Chidi and Rayne split while filming themselves, I find it odd that he still hoped to make a career out of reality TV. the “Chidi fanpage” was created in March 2024 when the show premiered in September 2024. Chidi always wanted to be famous. Rayne is just a victim.
