Hannah Niedermeier-Rubio’s Hospital Journey Amid Brain Bleed

7/26/2026, 1:17:48 PM

Core Event

Thirteen-year-old Hannah, the daughter of “90 Day Fiancé” stars Kenneth Niedermeier and Armando Rubio, was rushed back to an Arizona emergency department after her existing medical emergency worsened. Doctors reported that she continued to experience partial blindness, facial drooping and muscular weakness stemming from an unexpected brain bleed. She remains on preventative anti-seizure medication and a regimen to reduce brain swelling. After a brief stay, physicians discharged Hannah to her fathers’ care, noting that a home setting would be appropriate for her continued recovery.

Background & Context

Hannah was first hospitalized for the brain bleed earlier in the month and was released after an initial period of observation. During that time, the fathers shared that she still suffered lingering neurological symptoms and required ongoing medication. The family kept followers updated through Instagram Stories, emphasizing her good spirits despite the serious condition.

Official Statements & Responses

Kenneth Niedermeier used Instagram to inform fans that doctors were conducting additional tests and scans while Hannah remained upbeat. He later expressed relief that the medical team felt she would benefit from being at home, and he thanked the Customs & Border Patrol officers who facilitated his partner’s entry into the United States.

Immigration Hurdles

Armando Rubio initially sought a temporary humanitarian visa in mid-July but was told by a U.S. Customs and Border Protection supervisor that such visas had not been granted since 2025. After consulting an immigration attorney, Rubio pursued an emergency request and, on July 18, received an emergency humanitarian visa that allowed him to reunite with his family in Arizona.
