Bilal Hazziez’s Relationship With Shaeeda
Bilal and Shaeeda’s relationship began online. They had mutual friends online and Shaeeda reached out to Bilal on social media. The couple had a long-distance relationship but in 2019, Bilal travelled to Trinidad and Tobago, Shaeeda’s home country. They spent a week getting to know each other in person. Then came the COVID-19 pandemic, and all plans to meet again in person were put on hold. Bilal and Shaeeda eventually practiced nikah which is an Islamic religious but not legally-binding marriage ceremony. They did it so that they could stay together in America as a couple before getting married.
In the first episode of 90 Day, Fiancé Shaeeda came to America for the first time. Bilal decided to do a gold digger prank on his fiance on her first time in America and their second time being together in person. Bilal took her to the run-down house he grew up in rather than his own home to see if she would accept him regardless. He wanted to test if his soon-to-be wife was a gold digger.
Many 90 Day Fiancé fans didn’t like the idea of the prank and saw this “testing” done by Bilal as a huge red flag. She eventually failed his test and admitted that she was not comfortable with having to live like she was in the 1900s. However, the yoga instructor and the real estate mogul were able to put their differences aside and on December 18, 2021, made it down the aisle. The wedding ceremony wasn’t shown on the TLC show till an episode of the show was released in August 2022. Following their wedding, the pair returned to the screens in season 7 of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, which debuted in September 2022.
Their Shared Experiences On 90 Day Fiancé
Shaeeda and Bilal’s marriage came as a surprise to some of 90 Day Fiancé fans. Bilal on several occasions didn’t seem to treat Shaeeda well. Fans had mixed views on Bilal’s relationship with Shaeeda. Shaeeda had two failed engagements in her past, and her being unmarried at the age of 37 at the time was somewhat worrying to Bilal’s family. The couple argued for most of the season about different things. They argued about whether to have a child because Bilal said he didn’t want any more children. They also disagreed over the topic of finances.
In episode six of the show, the couple had an argument while on a car ride and Bilal threatened to drop her off on the side of the highway. Shaeeda also had a strained relationship with Bilal’s children. It didn’t end there Bilal informed Shaeeda that she needed to sign a prenuptial agreement that did not offer her any protection in the event of a divorce. However, since appearing on 90 Day Fiancé, Shaeeda and Bilal appear to be in a healthier place.
Shaeeda And Bilal Lost Their Pregnancy
It was no news that Shaeeda always wanted to have a child, but Bilal wasn’t on the same page initially. However, Bilal appeared to have a change of heart when he proposed the idea of starting a family during the 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? tell-all on January 15. Shortly after in February tragedy hit as the couple revealed on Instagram that they’ve experienced a miscarriage.
The couple shared a heartfelt message on their Instagram. They stated that they appreciate the support from fans and loved ones. The couple also stated that the experience brought them closer as husband and wife.
