Return to Amish's Jeremiah Raber and Wife Carmela's Relationship Timeline

A complicated history. Jeremiah Raber and his wife, Carmela Raber (née Mendez), wed in 2016 after meeting via social media, but their relationship has been full of ups and downs.

Fans first met Jeremiah in 2012 when he appeared on season 1 of Breaking Amish, which followed him and four costars as they moved to New York City to decide whether they wanted to remain part of the Amish community or stay in the so-called English world.

Shortly before the reality show premiered on TLC, Jeremiah split from Naomi Stutzman, with whom he shares three children. The TLC personality and Stutzman were married from 2005 to 2011. Stutzman and the kids appeared on one episode of Breaking Amish, but they’ve since kept a low profile.

Carmela, meanwhile, has four kids from a previous relationship. After she began dating Jeremiah, she made her reality TV debut in 2016 alongside him on the Breaking Amish spinoff, Return to Amish. The show’s third season concluded with the couple’s wedding.

Less than one year later, however, the duo made headlines when Jeremiah was arrested for domestic violence in April 2017. Carmela alleged in a police report that the incident was not the first time her husband had physically abused her, claiming that he struck her “on a daily basis.”

The charges against him were dropped in July 2018 after he completed a pretrial diversion, but the pair soon faced more turmoil. In October 2017, Jeremiah claimed that Carmela stole $15,000 before leaving him. Carmela claimed in response that Jeremiah had been physically abusing her. “I’m so scared but I’m free from his manipulation and he can go ahead spread his lies but in the end, [the] truth will come out,” she wrote in a since-deleted Facebook post.

Jeremiah, for his part, denied her allegations, claiming that his wife was seeking the “spotlight.” After more social media back-and-forth, the duo reconciled before splitting again in 2022. In March of that year, Carmela filed for a restraining order against her husband, alleging that he threatened to “put me 6 feet under.”

In response, Jeremiah claimed that all of Carmela’s allegations were about things that happened in 2017. “It’s all in the reports from back then,” he alleged while speaking to In Touch in March 2022. “She used the s–t to get the order just to kick me out. It’s sad how quick people are to post stuff like that but turn a blind eye to the change for the better people have made in their life.”

The reality star also confirmed via social media that he and Carmela were “done” for good. “Why did we break up?” he said in an Instagram video at the time. “I mean, I’m not going to go into detail, but you know, it just didn’t work out.”

Aly Raisman: A Day in My Life

Aly Raisman ’s life has looked quite different since she officially hung up her leotard and retired from gymnastics in 2020. But even though she’s not spending as much time at the gym, the former gymnast, 26, still makes it a point to live a healthy lifestyle. On a typical day in her life, Raisman will do a Pilates session to maintain her svelte physique. After years of intense training, the three-time Olympic gold medalist found that the method — which involves low-impact flexibility and muscular strength and endurance movements — not only benefited her body, but her mind too. “When I have a good workout, I feel more calm and I feel more connected to my body,” she told Women’s Health in January. “That is a very different answer that I would have given you a couple of years ago. If I were training, I would have probably said a good workout to me is when I push myself as much as I can … I think I pushed myself enough for most of my life. So, now I just want to leave the gym feelin...
