SOKOTO, NIGERIA: Kim is eager to take her relationship with Usman to the next level and is taking the initiative to do so. Kim arranges a romantic proposal to Usman in an exclusive clip from Sunday's new episode of '90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?,' and his reaction is unexpected.
On '90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?,' Kim Menzies and Usman Umar take the next important step toward marriage. On the TLC reality show, the pair has argued over several relationship issues, including Usman's views on taking multiple wives. Before meeting Kim and joining the cast of 'Happily Ever After,' he was featured on '90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days' with his ex-wife Lisa Hamme. Certain differences in his beliefs regarding relationships with both Lisa and Kim have left fans perplexed and wondering if Usman and Kim can really stay together.

Usman and Kim have had a lot of ups and downs this season, and his mother isn't happy with their relationship because of their 19-year age difference and the fact that she can't give him kids. Still, the pair has stuck together, and in this video, she surprises Usman with candles, rose petals, and champagne. Kim then holds his hand in hers and sobs as she tells him she loves him more than he probably realizes. Kim asked Usman if he would marry her with remarkably little fanfare, aside from mentioning that she made the decorations herself.
"We've been through a lot in two years," she adds. "So, I'm gonna ask you a question. Will you marry me?" Usman is visibly taken aback as Kim drops to one knee and proposes to him with a ring. "If marrying you is what truly will make you happy in this life, I'm ready to marry you, I'm telling you," he answers. "I never expected this, and I will repeat and say, yes, yes, yes."
Sadly, the ring does not fit, but Kim purchased a spare just in case. Usman tells the cameras that her proposal has moved him. "When Kimberly goes down on her knee, it's not my culture, but like, it's beautiful, and she's trying to show me how much she loves me and how she's ready to be with me regardless of anything that's going to happen," he explains. "I have to accept it, it's something touching, actually. Look at how she took much time decorating the whole house. It looks so romantic and I feel loved."
Fans of '90 Day Fiancé' have made their feelings for Kim known, but her love for Usman has clearly been on display during their time on TLC. Their relationship shares several traits with Usman's marriage to Lisa, particularly a substantial age difference between the two. However, this relationship appears to be evolving in many ways. Usman has been a major draw in each of the '90 Day Fiancé' series he has starred in, initially gaining popularity as his musical alter-ego Sojaboy and then continuously stealing the show with his outre personality. A lengthier stay in the '90 Day Fiancé' realm has allowed him to display more aspects of himself, and his marriage to Kim may allow him to show a more 'evolved' Usman. Fans will undoubtedly see every detail of what happens next in one of the '90 Day Fiancé' series, but for the time being, they can only speculate about how Kim's proposal will affect the pair's dynamic going forward.
'90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?' airs Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on TLC and Discovery+.
