Though it may be somewhat surprising that Darcey is a mom of two, fans first met Aniko on her first stint on 90 Day Fiancé. When Darcey's then-boyfriend Jesse came to the U.S. for the first time, he and Darcey rented an Airbnb near her home in Middletown, Connecticut so that Jesse could meet her daughters, Aniko and Aspen.
While attempting to cook a steak dinner, Darcey and Jesse got into one of their regular blowout fights, after Darcey demanded that Jesse "cut the steak on a bias."

Aniko stepped in to defend her mom and make sure that she was okay.
"Are y'all serious? Both of you guys are acting like you're my age," Aniko said at the dinner table when Jesse and Darcey couldn't let the fight go. "Grow up."

"I feel like if Jesse wants to be a parental figure, he will have to show more respect to us and my mom, because, if he doesn't, that won't lead to a very good relationship," Aniko poignantly said in an interview after the fight.
In the years since Aniko's mature words at the steak dinner, the teenager has become a social media star in her own right. Aniko has more than 99,000 followers on Instagram, and she's using her mom's reality fame to boost her platform on TikTok.
Aniko has over 1 million likes on the short video-sharing app, and one of her most popular videos to date features a special guest. She dances with Darcey in the video, which she captioned, "Hey Mom."
Outside of her influencer status, Aniko is also headed to college at the University of Arizona and she shared the news on TikTok.
