The screenshot of the post was reposted by Instagram user Shabootydotcom on October 10, 2024. In the post, Rayne claimed her removal stemmed from perceived negativity on 90 Day Fiancé.

The reason behind Rayne and Chidi’s 90 Day Fiancé Tell-All absence

Rayne’s statement about being uninvited

In October 2024, Rayne took to Threads, where she explained that she and Chidi were not included in the Tell-All due to the negative dynamics surrounding their relationship. She mentioned that she had been looking forward to performing a song, Don’t Forget About Us by Mariah Carey, during the reunion but ultimately was informed that they were uninvited.

Rayne suggested that the decision was made before the increasing public tension between the two, which included Chidi's public statements against her. Rayne wrote:

“I was planning on performing ‘Don’t Forget About Us’...but luckily we were both Uninvited due to all the negativity. As Well as that can’t be done on television, finding out [at the] last minute. This was before all his hatred towards me started spilling out all over the internet. Just saying.”

The relationship between Rayne and Chidi

90 Day Fiancé couple's relationship, despite their limited screen time in Before the 90 Days, attracted significant attention due to the ongoing conflicts between the couple. The drama largely centered around Rayne's trip to Nigeria, where she had conflicts with Chidi's family, especially his sister.

A significant point of contention was Chidi's decision to remain celibate until marriage, which caught Rayne off guard. Chidi had previously told Rayne about his decision before she traveled to Nigeria, but the situation escalated when he asked her to stay with his sister instead of living with him.

Chidi addressed this issue in a (now-deleted) Instagram statement from September 2024 according to Starcasm, explaining:

“The primary issue is the decision not to have s*x or share a bed until we are married. While this is a decision I have made, I want to make clear that I informed Rayne about this before she came to Nigeria.”

The 90 Day Fiancé star further elaborated that Rayne’s reaction was one of anger, initially threatening to cancel her visit before ultimately deciding to stay.

The breakup and aftermath

The relationship concluded in the October 6, 2024, episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, after a fierce disagreement between Rayne and Chidi's sister. The disagreement led to accusations from Rayne that Chidi was only interested in marrying her for the sake of a visa. Chidi, however, denied these accusations, stating during a confessional:

"If I really want the visa, I would have submitted. Which includes having s*x with Rayne... I wanted to marry her cause I love her deeply for five years."

Since the 90 Day Fiancé couple's break up, Rayne has continued to express her opinions about Chidi on social media. She made a post on her Threads account (@raynethelastonestanding111) on January 7, 2025, where she criticized his treatment of her, particularly in Nigeria, stating:

“You can clearly see who does not have a soul. Just a dark vibration of what he once was.”

A day later, she shared another post, recalling the final words Chidi allegedly said to her as she left Nigeria:

“As I was walking away on the last day in nigeria. The last word that I ever heard from his mouth were... I havent loved you in over two years , No guy would ever love you.Who would want somebody like you. And so on.. Then I got in the elevator.”
