Miguel and Nazanin Mandi recently reunited after their separation. The pair disclosed the news through Instagram on February 15.
The couple announced their reunion five months after their split in September 2021. Before the breakup, they were together for 17 years, of which they spent three years married. Their wedding was held at California’s Hummingbird Nest Ranch in 2018.
Both shared a photoshoot on Instagram to celebrate the occasion and called themselves Pimentel again. They were seen rocking sunglasses while being decked out in leather. Mandi wrote,
“Heal the root so the tree is stable. I’m so proud of us.”
Miguel’s caption was simple where he just wrote:
"Love heals."
Fans began to suspect something when they spotted Miguel on one of Nazanin’s Instagram stories as she was recovering from Lasik surgery. The duo were seen wearing eye patches in the clip.
