CHARLESTON, WEST VIRGINIA: The star of '90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days', Amanda Wilhelm, gets betrothed to Joel Zalazar. A video circulating on Instagram appears to show her new partner getting down on one knee to pop the question to the TLC star at what appears to be a restaurant.

In March, Amanda shared a number of Instagram Stories from her Miami night out. One of them included her fiancé at the moment. 

Amanda shared a photo of herself with her then-boyfriend on Instagram, tagging @Joelzalazar. Joel put his hand around Amanda's waist as she stood up in her paisley dress and snapped a full-length photo in front of the mirror.

Joel didn't grin for the camera, but Amanda's happiness was evident in her countenance.

Even though several fan pages have posted the video on Instagram, Amanda took to her Instagram stories on May 26 to show her disgust. She wrote, "I really can't stand gossip on social media. Why post about something that I havent even posted about or confirmed?"

Even though the viral video suggests otherwise, Amanda doesn't seem to confirm the news. Maybe, not yet.

Joel and Amanda appear to have been dating for some time. Joel's Instagram profile has images from January that feature him and Amanda exchanging suggestive remarks.

In one of them, Amanda referred to Joel as "the sexiest man in the world."

How did 90 Day Fiancé's Amanda Wilhelm's husband die?

Amanda, a mother of two, was a devastated widow who began seeing her lover, Razvan Ciocoi, a few months after her husband's death. Amanda's husband, Jason Wilhelm, died abruptly of ampullary cancer, barely 10 days after being diagnosed.

They had been married for eight years. She utilized TikTok to escape, which is where Amanda's romance with Razvan began.

Why did 90 Day Fiancé's Amanda Wilhelm and Razvan Ciocoi split?

A few months before the filming of 'Before the 90 Days' Season 6, Amanda, a single mother of two, connected with adult model and social media star Razvan on TikTok. After the sudden loss of her husband, Jason, Amanda came under fire for not allowing herself enough time to recover.

When she traveled to Romania, she came to the realization that dating Razvan was a mistake. Razvan had previously applied for a US visa without telling Amanda because he intended to have additional children with her.

Even though Amanda and Razvan's relationship had many difficulties—such as envy, disagreements over their future plans, and skepticism from friends—they were still together in the end. After Amanda came back from Romania, Razvan ended their relationship, saying he wanted to concentrate on his work and be single.

Was '90 Day Fiancé' star Amanda Wilhelm dating Scott Wern?

After her highly publicized breakup with Razvan, Amanda clarified that she is not dating Scott Wern. Although Amanda did not provide a message for her love shot, she did include the song 'Quién Pudiera?' by Cardellino as the background music.

The remainder of Amanda's Instagram Stories from the evening showed her traveling to Espanola Way for cocktails and South Beach, Florida. Amanda shared another mirror selfie before going to bed, giving the impression that she was happy with her date night.

Her igniting romance speculations with Scott from '90 Day Fiancé: Love In Paradise' and 'The Family Chantel' garnered media attention. Scott, the ex-boyfriend of Lidia, the mother of Pedro Jimeno, gained notoriety as a bad guy after breaking up with her.

In February 2024, Scott asked Amanda to be his Valentine. Before Scott moved into her basement, Amanda gave him an OK.

They made an attempt to seem like a brand-new franchise couple. They even put their first photo together for sale. 

But it's possible that the two were only amusing themselves at the expense of their followers on social media.
