Just days after news broke that 90 Day Fiancé star Patrick Mendes had filed for divorce from his wife, Thais Ramone, the Brazilian native was arrested in Nevada on a misdemeanor domestic battery charge. Clark County court records indicate that Ramone was booked on May 22 on a charge of domestic battery, first offense, and later released after posting a $3,000 bond.
According to Page Six, the arrest came less than 48 hours after reports surfaced that Mendes had filed for divorce, citing incompatibility after four years of marriage. Court filings state that Mendes is also seeking sole legal and physical custody of the couple’s 3-year-old daughter, Aleesi, claiming the child has been living with him separately since early May. Ramone’s next court appearance for the battery charge is scheduled for late July.
The couple became known to reality TV audiences through TLC’s 90 Day Fiancé franchise before later appearing on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? More recently, they were announced as cast members for the upcoming season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Last Resort, a spinoff centered around couples attempting to repair troubled relationships through therapy. The season is still scheduled to premiere on June 1.
In a statement regarding the divorce proceedings, representatives for Mendes and Ramone urged restraint amid the growing public attention surrounding the case.
“Out of respect for everyone involved, we believe it’s important not to jump to conclusions or contribute to speculation before all facts are properly clarified,” the statement read. “Domestic matters can be deeply emotional and complex, and we encourage compassion, privacy, and due process for all parties involved.”
Additional reporting tied to the divorce filing has also brought renewed attention to the couple’s financial situation. Separate court records indicate Mendes faced multiple lawsuits tied to debts owed to a bank and credit card companies in 2025, with default judgments reportedly entered in those cases.
Neither Mendes nor Ramone has publicly addressed any of these issues outside of the initial statement.
