90 Day: The Single Life couple Veronica Rodriguez and Jamal Menzies are not meant to be together due to the many red flags in their relationship. Veronica started off her reality TV career as a side character in Tim Malcolm’s storyline in 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 3. Veronica had been with Tim for seven years before they split and decided to continue co-parenting her daughter Chloe. Veronica had gotten pregnant when she was 20 and married her baby daddy. Veronica broke up with her ex-husband before Chloe was even born. She’d met Tim after her divorce.
In the eight years that followed, Veronica dated different kinds of men, including Justin Foster from 90 Day: The Single Life season 3. Justin kept Veronica in the dark about his move to a different state, leading to their breakup. Veronica knew Jamal from the franchise, but they started talking when Jamal slid into her DMs and complimented her eyes. Veronica thought Jamal was sexy the first second she laid eyes on him. They met up for the first time when Veronica went to San Diego, but kept things casual. Veronica knew she wanted to get married again, but Jamal may not have been the right man.

Jamal had appeared briefly on a FaceTime call screen on Kim’s phone and was declared a 90 Day Fiancé heartthrob.

He concluded it was because of her insecurity and her thinking that he didn’t want to talk to her. Jamal had been open about him sleeping with other people after he met Veronica. He said he was using protection. Veronica, meanwhile, was seemingly committed to Jamal in her head because he was being “lazy” about dating other men. Tim wasn’t amused by the arrangement. He knew Veronica wanted to tell Jamal, “Hey, you’ve got to get rid of the other girls.”
However, Veronica claimed it was she who suggested they have an open relationship. Jamal could have taken advantage of Veronica being so easygoing and continued to see other women as soon as he left North Carolina.
