Fans of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? have been wondering if Emily Bieberly and Kobe Blaise managed to withstand the doubts in their relationship that their Cameroon trip created. The answer is, yes, they did. Their current relationship status became apparent with an Instagram post that Emily made on April 15, thanking her social media audience for making it to 200K followers.

The post had a picture of their family of five, all smiles.

Emily and Kobe met at a club in China when Emily was working there as a teacher while Kobe was a model. Their story was documented on 90 Day Fiancé season 9, where Emily had just applied for Kobe's K-1 visa.

On 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 8, the parents of the two were seen on a trip to Kobe's home country of Cameroon, where their relationship went through a rough patch, making fans wonder if they would call things off.


What happened between Emily and Kobe on their trip to Cameroon in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?

On 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 8, Emily and Kobe, along with their two children, went to Kobe's home country of Cameroon. While there, Kobe wished to show his culture to Emily and to spend time with friends and family.

Things went south when Kobe was asked by his Cameroonian friends if Emily was a "bossy" wife. They shared their notion about marriages between Cameroonian men and white women not working because white women were opinionated. Kobe denied their claims and said he was willing to fight for his marriage.

When Kobe told Emily about this, she decided to confront his friends, who didn't change their opinion even after Emily insisted that white women can be great wives and mothers.

Another shocker for the Kansas native was when Kobe's father asked them to remarry according to the Cameroonian ceremony. Emily also discovered that Kobe had a girlfriend back home when he was dating her in China, much to her shock.

While fans were afraid that these things might cause a rift between the two, all seems to be fine, as the couple welcomed their third child, Atem, long after 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 8 was filmed.

The couple and their kids are still living with Emily's parents.

Their financial situation was a subject of discussion in season 9 of 90 Day Fiancé, where they earned flak for expanding their family despite not being stable on the financial front.

In the season, Emily's father even urged her to not have more children while living in his house, and advised her to soon move to a place of her own. As a result, the couple started house hunting.

Emily was asked about her then status of moving out of her parent's house on the 90 Day Fiancé season 9 Tell All. At the time, she said that despite their efforts at looking for new houses, they weren't able to pin one down because they were highly priced.

Despite her father's remarks about not expanding her family further in his house, Emily and Kobe went ahead with it, leaving the internet divided. While some fans called them out for having children without a strong financial base, others congratulated them and showed faith in their progress.
