Angela Deem’s recent behavior on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? is bringing attention to an old petition to ban her from TLC. Viewers of the show have been complaining for years about Angela’s treatment of her husband Michael llesanmi with some even accusing her of abuse.
Most recently an argument between the pair had fans in an uproar after Angela shouted at Michael and berated him over the phone because he didn’t support her enough after her surgery.
The interaction has sparked new outrage from TLC fans and has even reignited a two-year-old petition from people who want her axed from the network.
TV viewers want Angela Deemed banned from TLC
Angela’s recent actions on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? have sparked new life into an old petition, and now more people have added their signatures.
The Change.org petition was created two years ago, but did not get the 5,000 signatures it required to garner much attention. However, more people have recently signed the petition and it continues to creep closer to its 5,000 signature mark.
The petition — which was started by someone named Alice Paige — has over 4,000 signatures as of the time of this article. And Alice wrote a lengthy explanation regarding the reason for her petition.
It reads, “Angela Deem is the epitome of an abusive partner. Dangling citizenship over the head of her much younger fiance and forcing him to cater to her whims and follow her rules–for example, prohibiting him from working due to her jealousy–she continuously abuses him before the public eye.”
The petition also reiterated recent claims made about Angela regarding her alleged abuse of Michael. 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever? viewers have reasoned that if Michael had treated his wife the way she treats him, the abuse claims would be taken more seriously.
“Partner abuse is never acceptable. If these behaviors were happening to a woman, there would absolutely be an uproar as they are completely outrageous and harmful,” states the petition. “TLC should be ashamed to be broadcasting this at all, let alone without any intervention or acknowledgment of the abuse.”
Petition says TLC is promoting abuse
The petition against the 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? star went on to state that, “TLC is promoting and giving a platform for financial, emotional, and physical partner abuse by continuing to give Angela airtime.”
The signees want the network to remove the 54-year-old from the show immediately and to also make a donation to a domestic violence organization.
It states, “Take Angela off the air immediately and acknowledge the harm and damage she has caused to the psyche and well-being of a young man eager to find love and get to America. A donation to a domestic violence organization or immigrant rights group would be very meaningful as well.”
90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? airs Sundays at 8/7c on TLC.
This is the most fowl mouthed hateful woman. Pure ignorance! I am ashamed when she hollers that she is an American! I is so embarrassing to watch this horrible woman, please get rid of her. She is just plain abusive.
I think that this petition is ridiculous, I am sorry she is seems to come across as rude but if you don’t like it then don’t watch her when she comes on……I love her, she gives me the chuckles…I don’t need any nasty or mean comments, I am allowed to have my opinion too.
She certainly is the image the world has of Americans – loud, crude, demanding, bossy, overweight, obnoxious.
You don’t have to be “deemed” banned from anything – merely banned. An entire generation (the last 2, in fact) that cannot write nor speak properly. Angela is trailer trash but she garnered a lot of attention & that is why disgusting TLC (“learning channel” haha) in not likely to get rid of her.
Most of the participants on the 90 Day shows, are emotionally disturbed. This is what TLC & the media count upon to make their VAST fortunes. They exploit these unfortunate trainwrecks, knowing that a good number of Americans, in this day and age, are voyeurs and are addicted to shallow, inane celebritydom.
