Fans are questioning why Ben Rathbun and Mahogany Roca's Instagram accounts have been disabled.
When they were introduced on Before The 90 Days season 5 episode 6, some 90 Day Fiancé fans assumed Mahogany, 24, was a catfish tricking 52-year-old Ben. Because Mahogany was too nervous to have video chats with Ben, took a $1,000 loan from him, and photoshopped her Instagram photographs to seem like someone else, it appeared that something fishy was going on between them. Expect, Mahogany did turn out to be genuine, and Ben still wants to marry her - a strategy that seems to be working.
Ben and Mahogany were recently seen together at a Peruvian mall. Unfortunately, the pair has since vanished from Instagram.
Ben met Mahogany, the love of his life, online after she fell in love with his shirtless modeling images and sent him a friend request. Ben just needed three months to design a plan to bring her to the United States, which his grown-up children publicly opposed.
Unfortunately, Ben ignored all the warning signs and flew to Peru only to be ghosted by Mahogany, who claimed to be afraid of seeing him. Meanwhile, Ben didn't appeal to her parents as an ideal relationship choice because of his age, and Mahogany claimed that he seemed smaller in person and had catfished her.
Nonetheless, a larger dramatic surprise occurred when Ben discovered Mahogany had lied to him about her true age. She was just 22 years old, not 24.
At the conclusion of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 5 episode 11, Ben was terrified out and nearly returned to the airport, but he shared a beautiful photo with Mahogany and defended her. "The waves of ignorance and hatred continue to pound her everyday," Ben said in his post (re-posted by @90daythemelanatedway).
He also said that Mahogany's surname "Roca" means "rock," despite the fact that some admirers believe her first name is a forgery. This was Ben's final Instagram post before he and Mahogany both erased their accounts.
Overall, the main reason for Ben and Mahogany's departure might be because they do not want to face with "hate" from fans. It might possibly be the result of a Reddit user (through @90daythemelanataedway) discovering a Facebook profile belonging to Ben and a lady named "Amy Phung."
The combined Facebook account was made public to followers on March 2nd, and it reveals that Ben was engaged or married to a younger lady in 2019 who he does not discuss on 90 Day Fiancé.
On a website named "Ben N Amy Rathbun-Phung," there are beautiful professionally-shot images of Ben with the woman, suggesting at how serious the relationship may have been.
To be clear, this isn't the lady Ben mentioned on 90 Day Fiancé. Ben became engaged to a lady 17 years his younger following his divorce, and she is an entirely different person.
Ben and Mahogany's Instagram profiles were deleted shortly after Ben and Amy's Facebook page was exposed. Furthermore, many fans believe that Ben and Mahogany are hired actors who are pretending to be in a relationship on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days.
According to an earlier video of Ben, producers from 90 Day Fiancé approached him after seeing his fitness photographs in a magazine. He has since recanted his claims of being scouted, but Mahogany's on-screen antics with exaggerated faces and "oh my god" exclamations made her seem to be acting (badly) on the TLC show.
Fans have ridiculed Ben and Mahogany on social media due to their 30-year age difference, Mahogany's professionally manipulated images, and her fictitious San Bartolo mansion.
It's safe to assume that this is the main reason Ben and Mahogany have taken a sabbatical from Instagram, but there are certainly many other reasons that followers have yet to discover.
Honestly, I just don’t understand what is happening with this couple!?
They dropped into the season half way through and have been reeking havoc ever since! 😂
Are they together? Is she real? Was that an AirBnB? Is he older than her parents? Is she the same age as one of his children? They’re still together? I thought when we met Ben, he said she didn’t speak English, but this Mahogany clearly speaks English. I would almost got out on a limb and say that English is her first language and Spanish, her second.
Ben Rathbun's Secret Lover
Ben Rathbun's first marriage was full of " bad things". The 90 Day Fiancé actor also claimed that the religion had total control over his life, including his marriage.
Ben and his ex-wife divorced after 24 years of marriage. Surprisingly few months after is divorce, fresh images of Ben Rathbun with another lady have appeared on the internet. A Reddit member unearthed an unusual Facebook page, implying that the 90 Day Fiance star was in a relationship with another lady at few years before is divorce, meaning that he cheated on his ex-wife .
The couple's names were combined on the Facebook profile, which was called "Ben N Amy Rathbun-Phung." It implies that Ben had a "joint" social media account with the unidentified lady at one time.
The Page includes images of Ben Rathbun and his supposed ex, who seem to be in a relationship. There's also a photo of the 90 Day Fiance actor dressed in all-white to match his ladylove. This generated suspicion that the two had likely married.
It's worth mentioning that the images were shot in August of this year. This seems to contradict Ben's statements that he stopped dating following his divorce from his ex-wife. So far, he has not responded to the images that have been making the rounds on the internet.
Meanwhile, fans have many unresolved concerns concerning Mahogany Roca. Many 90 Day Fiance supporters continue to have doubts about her honesty, pointing out various red flags.
Mahogany invited Ben to her opulent house in an episode of Before the 90 Days, which surprised both viewers and Ben. He was also introduced to her parents by her. Some admirers, however, are skeptical that they are actual parents, claiming that they seem to be professional actors.
Regardless, Ben Rathbun and Mahogany Roca's relationship seems to be going well. The 90 Day Fiance pair was recently photographed together at a Peruvian mall, possibly proving that they are still together.
