[90 Day Fiance Spoilers Warning: This report contains spoilers about Ariela and Biniyam's relationship and whether they broke up or are still together in either Ethiopia or the United States.]

Ariela, a 29-year-old freelance writer from Princeton, NJ, introduced herself on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way as Biniyam's girlfriend.

And after going through a difficult divorce, Ariela said she wanted to get to know herself better and see the world -- so she booked a cheap trip to Ethiopia and met Biniyam while she was waiting for a taxi outside of her hotel.

Biniyam is a 31-year-old dancer, choreographer, martial artist and gymnast from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, who was living with his older siblings when he met Ariela.

Only three months into dating each other, Ariela learned she was pregnant, which was certainly "unexpected news."

Ariela planned to move to Ethiopia long-term so she could raise her baby with Biniyam, but the couple were used to different cultures, and it took time for Biniyam to find the couple a suitable apartment, suitable for a middle-to-upper class American.

Biniyam was previously married to another American woman for four years, but he said he was only with her for "six to eight months." The woman apparently left for America when the couple's son was only three years old and she never returned.

When getting settled in their new life together, Ariela and Biniyam had issues to work through -- such as Biniyam's desire for Ariela to convert to his Ethiopian-Orthodox Christian church when she had been raised Jewish.

And once their son was born via emergency C-section, Ariela initially didn't want to circumcize or baptize Aviel Biniyam Shibre.

Ariela also missed Biniyam when he worked late, and she battled trust issues. For instance, a woman once called his phone and Biniyam denied having any involvement with her.

Although Ariela said she and Biniyam weren't communicating and acted more like roommates, they got engaged while attending a celebration for the baptism of Jesus Christ, which is a holiday in Ethiopia.

Ariela then hired a nanny, Mimi, and she and Biniyam had moved into a three-bedroom house together. Ariela gushed about child-help being only $200 a month, but Biniyam hadn't been working much due to COVID-19.

The couple even survived a visit from Ariela's ex-husband Leandro, who oddly remained Ariela's best friend. The pair had married young and stayed together for 10 years, but as they aged, they grew apart and Leandro didn't want children, much to Ariela's dismay.

Ariela started to feel like Ethiopia was her home, and Biniyam told his fiancee that he never wanted to lose her because she and Aviel are God's gifts to him. Ariela therefore asked Biniyam to open up and express himself more.

"I love you so much. You are my heart. You are my everything. Just don't give up. Don't worry, it will get better," Biniyam told Ariela.

Ariela and Biniyam later took their son Avi to a pediatrician in Ethiopia and learned Avi had a hernia at nine months and would need surgery as soon as possible to avoid further complications involving the baby's intestine.

Ariela ultimately decided it would be best for Avi to have surgery in the United States, where Ariela still had health insurance.

Ariela knew Biniyam wouldn't like her traveling to the U.S. with Avi since he couldn't join them due to the U.S. Embassy being closed amid the coronavirus pandemic.

"My ex-wife went on a trip. She cried and convinced me like this. She took my child and didn't come back. For Ari to repeat this, this is a difficult thing for me," Biniyam said.

Biniyam begged Ariela not to go, insisting he would find her a special doctor and do anything it takes. But Ariela revealed how she had already purchased her plane ticket, and Biniyam pleading for her to stay on one knee didn't change Ariela's mind.

Ariela promised Biniyam and his sisters that she'd return to Ethiopia and would never hurt Biniyam in the way his ex-wife had. She planned to stay in America for just one month.

Ariela understood Biniyam had been "traumatized" over his first wife neglecting him.

Ariela therefore bought Biniyam a wedding-type band to prove her loyalty and devotion to him, and he said he'd never take it off. Ariela had the ring engraved and it read "forever family." She also bought herself a matching ring.

Once Ariela landed in the U.S. after spending more than a year in Ethiopia, her parents were overjoyed to be reunited with their daughter and grandbaby, whom they hadn't seen in seven months.

Ariela, however, wished Biniyam could have joined her for the trip, and she noted, "I'm worried that with Avi and I so far away, this could cause a whole different set of problems for us."

Later on, Ariela's family tried to convince her to move back to America so Avi would be exposed to the best education and health care available.

But Ariela said she liked Ethiopia and moving wasn't even an option since the Embassy was closed due to COVID-19 and Biniyam couldn't obtain a K-1 visa.

Biniyam also didn't like the idea of leaving Ethiopia and his close-knit family in general.

"Coming back here feels like visiting," Ariela said, before one relative asked Ariela to "wake up" because Avi needs to grow up in the best possible environment so he can thrive.

Ariela didn't think Biniyam would be open to making the same sacrifices she had made for him, although she found the idea of a life in the U.S. with her fiance intriguing.

Being so far apart from Biniyam had also been "really hard" for their relationship, according to Ariela.

Ariela accused Biniyam of not communicating and lying about his whereabouts. She also said Biniyam had never done anything nice for her, which prompted Biniyam to say, "Go find yourself an American man if that's what you want."

Ariela said she didn't want another man; she just wanted Biniyam to treat her decently. She also asked Biniyam to never turn his phone off so that she could reach him at all times.

Ariela told Biniyam that it didn't seem like he cared she was gone and he appeared to be having a great time without her at the club "every weekend for three weeks." Biniyam said going out made him feel better because he was lonely.

Ariela said she felt "hurt" and it was painful when Biniyam didn't answer his phone.

"What about me? I need you. Avi needs you. Your friends are not the most important thing. We are supposed to be the most important thing," Ariela noted.

Biniyam thought Ariela was just acting jealous, and his friends complained about Ariela's alleged difficult personality and high expectations of her partner.

"I am fearful inside because we don't have a good relationship," Biniyam lamented. "I really want Ari to keep her word and return to Ethiopia for me. If she is not happy, I know she will not return. Therefore, the situation scares me."

Ariela acknowledged some of Biniyam's friends were "poison" because they liked to party and weren't in serious relationships. Ariela even said Biniyam's pals had been using her home as a place to drink and unwind.

Ariela's mother Janice suggested Biniyam should join Ariela in the United States and leave his bad influences behind, which Ariela noted was "a good idea." She also contemplated moving to Kenya, where Biniyam is from and the couple apparently fell in love.

"I know Biniyam wants to live in Ethiopia, but if he continues to behave like this, I don't think I can go back there," Ariela said in a confessional.

Ariela later admitted her relationship with Biniyam had deteriorated.

People had texted Ariela letting her know that Biniyam had been hosting parties at their house, and his photos had been synced to her iCloud, showing people -- whom she didn't even know -- were in and out of her house.

Ariela then Zoomed with Biniyam and accused him of not caring about her or Avi. Ariela said Biniyam had turned her home into a party house and he had even invited women over.

"What you are doing, it's so shameful," Ariela said.

Ariela told the cameras that Biniyam had even packed up Avi's bed and she wasn't okay with that. She was also upset Biniyam didn't answer the phone when she called.

Ariela proceeded to tell Biniyam, "I thought about it a lot, and I've decided I'm not coming back to Ethiopia."

"What?" Biniyam asked.

"I'm not coming back to Ethiopia," Ariela repeated.

Biniyam said Ariela had made him a promise, but Ariela countered, "After everything you have done, I will never go back to Ethiopia."

Biniyam called Ariela's decision "disrespectful" to his culture, but Ariela said, "Stop using your culture as an excuse. Is it normal in your culture to sleep with other women when you're engaged? Is that normal?"

Biniyam smiled at the suggestion he's cheating on his fiancee, showing that he thought it was funny and ridiculous -- but Ariela said she had no idea what was going on over there.

Ariela had allegedly learned from Biniyam's own friends and family members that he had welcomed other women into their home and so he wasn't being sneaky.

"No, you're wrong," Biniyam noted.

Ariela told Biniyam to get tested for his own safety and the safety of others. Biniyam's sister Wish had apparently texted Ariela the news, and Ariela said she also had Biniyam's Messenger on her phone.

"He got a message saying, 'Remember me from the other night at the club?'" Ariela claimed. "Obviously he'd hiding something."

Ariela told Biniyam that if he wanted to be a family again, they could move to Kenya and start over again -- or they could co-parent from different countries.

Ariela said she was hurt but a part of her still loved him and she didn't want him to lose his son.

"But you are surrounded by evil, and you are not the same man that I knew," Ariela said, adding that Biniyam's behavior was "embarrassing" and shameful.

Ariela thought Kenya would be neutral territory, and she left the decision up to him.

Biniyam called Ariela "bossy" and said he didn't like it, but Ariela told him to "shut the f-ck up and listen" because he had allegedly "destroyed" his family and "sacrificed nothing."

Ariela told Biniyam that she was giving him only one more chance and he needed to wake up.

So did Ariela and Biniyam break up or get married, and is the 90 Day Fiance couple still together now?

Ariela led fans to believe she's still living in Ethiopia when she posted a video of herself on November 4, 2021 crying about the current civil war in Ethiopia and how "Ethiopia needs peace."

"Please pray for Ethiopia! we need solutions. We need smart thoughtful people to work together. We need to treat each other with respect and forgive one another. We need peace.
#prayforethiopia #ethiopia #endthewar #enough #tired," she captioned the video.

Ariela said in the video she didn't want to talk about her fight with Biniyam and didn't care about what airs on a TV show compared to the big things that are going on in the world.

"If you want to DM me about my treatment of Bini, that's fine. But this is not the time," Ariela said.

But Ariela's latest Instagram posts give the impression she and Biniyam may have split.

On November 3, Ariela suggested she has fallen out of love with Biniyam.

"Ethiopia... I dont have words. Love is a strange thing, even when it is for a place rather than a person," Ariela captioned a video of herself making a giant pancake outdoors in Ethiopia.

"I have made the most amazing memories of my life in Ethiopia. When you love a person or a place you suffer and cry with them. But just for now I want to laugh at this funny little memory."

Ariela also wrote how she fell in love with the country and then "with a man," and she added, "And now I am falling in love every day with my baby Avi."

Also in early November, Biniyam told his followers in a video that he talks to his baby on "video" and Avi is "so happy and laughing," which suggests he and Ariela may be living apart.

Avi's recent videos on Instagram are also throwbacks of moments he had with Avi.

But in late October, Biniyam and Ariela posted the same advertising content in their Instagram Stories at the same time, giving their followers the impression they had talked about it and planned it together.

Biniyam posted a sweet photo with his son Avi that appeared to be recent. The photo gives the impression Ariela returned to Ethiopia after Avi's hernia surgery.

"I love you Avi. You make me happy. #90dayfiance," he captioned the two images of Biniyam lifting his son up with a sunset in the background.

In late September, Biniyam and Ariela were spotted in New Jersey together and pictures of the couple circulated on social media. Ariela apparently told the fan that she and Biniyam were "just visiting" the U.S.

Biniyam also made it seem like he and Ariela are still a couple when he posted a fan's illustration September 15 on Instagram of Ariela and himself as Simpson characters hugging each other. Biniyam called the picture "awesome" and said he loved it.

And back on September 12, Ariela and Biniyam conducted an interview with E! News and the couple appeared very happy together. Ariela gushed about how her son loves dancing with his father.

The pair also played "The Newly Engaged Game" with Us Weekly in August when they were definitely still an item.

Ariela gushed about her Biniyam being the more romantic one in their relationship, and one day earlier, she posted a portrait of herself in Ethiopia.

If Ariela continues to reside in Ethiopia, she and Biniyam probably got married or else she stays there six months at a time on a Tourist Visa.

Ariela also posted a photo of herself in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, this past summer, saying she was at one of her and Biniyam's favorite restaurants.

The couple, however, couldn't seem to agree on wedding plans in a Summer 2021 joint interview with Us.

Ariela shared how she and her fiance had yet to set a wedding date or even agree on a time of year in which to marry.

"It remains to be seen," Ariela admitted. "I'll leave that one on a cliffhanger."

Ariela explained how she and Biniyam had "taken time" with their engagement.

"A lot of people get engaged and they get married right away. I think... one of my concerns is and points [of contention] is that Bini is a party person. He likes a big wedding, a big party and, you know, he likes to go all out," Ariela explained.

Biniyam, however, said "it's not about partying" for him when it comes to saying, "I do."

"In my culture, if you have to do a wedding, you have a big wedding. Like, your father's side, your mother's. That's the culture I'm used to, that's how I grew up," Biniyam said.

Ariela, on the other hand, told the magazine that she envisions a small wedding, maybe at the beach.

"I don't know. I don't want a big wedding, and so I don't know how we're going to work that one out," Ariela acknowledged.

Ariela and Biniyam also hadn't even decided on which country their wedding should take place in.

"It would be great if my family could attend the wedding," Ariela said. "I think it would be hard to get the whole family shipped out to Ethiopia."

But Biniyam said he would "definitely" like to get married in Ethiopia.

"I'd like a big wedding in my country. I'd like to show her what a typical Ethiopian wedding looks like," Biniyam told the magazine.

"My father's side is very funny. My mother says it's a different culture [with] a wedding ceremony. I want to show her -- for Avi, for Avi's family... what a traditional Ethiopian wedding looks like."

Biniyam also reasoned how it would be hard to fly his whole family to the United States for their wedding.

"We have kind of a situation," noted Biniyam, who appears to struggle financially in Ethiopia.

Ariela therefore determined, "I think maybe we've got to talk about this one, because that sounds like a lot."

And Biniyam gushed about being happy with Ariela on his own Instagram account on August 1.

In addition to uploading several family photos and videos, Biniyam wrote at the time, "I'm so lucky god he give me this amazing family. We love like crazy. Every day is an adventure when we are together."

And he posted a beautiful photo of Ariela and himself writing "love" as the sweet and simple caption.

On July 10, Ariela captioned photos of herself wearing traditional dress in Ethiopia and "making a coffee ceremony."

"I have loved Ethiopia since I visited for the first time in 2017 before I ever met Biniyam. I love the people, the culture, the food, the landscape, and the history it provides. Ethiopia gave me my family and my son. It gave me my best friend and the beautiful life I have now," Ariela gushed.

She also shared a cute picture of herself hugging Biniyam and wrote alongside it, "Hiking and hugs are the best. #iloveyou."

Ariela had also posted recent photos of her son "in the Ethiopian countryside" with her and videos of Biniyam busting a move.

Ariela wrote to Biniyam in a sweet Father's Day message in June, "Happy Father's Day! Seeing you love and care for Avi makes my whole life."

"I know you love him more than anything," she continued. "Waking up to him and you every day is the most comfortable feeling in the world. I love you both. Thanks for making this family with me. #happyfathersday #90dayfiance #myfamily #usthree #arielaandbiniyam."

More photos of the couple date back months beforehand.
