Kim Menziescoped with the emotional tumult of a family loss as fiancéUsman “Sojaboy” Umaropened the door to adding a new member on the latest90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?
On Sunday’s episode, the 52-year-old struggled to understand how her new family might look after a conversation in which she told Usman, 33: “I’m worried about our future.”
Instead of listening, he dropped a bomb: “I feel like maybe I’m going to adopt.”
“What? What? Are you joking right now?” Kim asked.
Usman explained, “If getting a second wife is something that can’t happen, I thinkadoptingmy nephew Mahadi would be the best idea.”

Usman replied, “I’m asking, do you want to raise him?”
“No, I’m too old,” Kim said. “I don’t know if I want to raise another child, like I raised mine, you know what I’m saying?”
The call ended with the couple resolving to talk more about the issues at hand, but later in a confessional, Kim was less optimistic, saying, “I’m in total shock. Like, this is a WTF moment.”

Earlier in the episode, Kim shared that she had recently lost her mother unexpectedly, shortly after she returned from Nigeria.
In a conversation as Kim and her son Jamal walked along the San Diego boardwalk, they remembered Kim’s mom, with whom she’d lived and for whom she’d cared the past eight years.
Jamal even joked, “Well, Usman’s almost the same age as me, so you can take care of him.”
It was almost too soon for Kim, who winced before laughing.
The 25-year-old encouraged Kim: “You’ve got Usman, and regardless of how I feel about him, he is very supportive of you, so I appreciate it.”
He continued later in a confessional, “I feel like my mom is not someone who likes being alone, but she also knows I’m a phone call away and I’ll get on that plane whenever she needs me.”
For Kim, the death of her mom did help to clarify one thing about her relationship with Usman: “It’s really super important to me now with my mom’s passing that Usman comes to the States to be with me.”
