Publish date: 2024-05-03

90 Day Fiancé’s Veronica Rodriguez expressed concerns over her partner Jamal Menzies’ communication skills on 90 Day: The Single Life. Now, its her who can’t keep up with the conversation as her daughter, Chloe, bond over memes.

Life in the age of the internet essentially means anyone and everyone is open to a meme reference at any given time. In response to Chloe’s footwear on 90 Day Fiancé, Jamal asked: “What are those?” referencing a super popular online clip. The “what are those” compilations have been doing the rounds for years since the moment went viral. But, it went over the TLC star’s head.

90 Day Fiancé’s bonding moment

Veronica is a mom of one who first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé alongside Tim Malcolm.

She has a 16-year-old daughter named Chloe who she wants to see “bond” with her boyfriend, Jamal.

Jamal landed himself a spot in the reality TV world after his mom, Kimberly Menzies, joined the 90 Day Fiancé cast.

Speaking on the show, Veronica explains Chloe and Jamal have met, but they’ve never “hung out, hung out.”

The TLC star was excited for some “bonding time,” but ended up feeling left out in the January 22 episode.

Jamal jokes ‘What are those?’

As Jamal, Chloe, and Veronica chill out by the pool during 90 Day: The Single Life, Chloe notices her sandals are being looked at.

Chloe says: “You’re looking at my shoes, I know.”

Referencing a viral meme, Jamal jokes back: “What are those?” before the two burst into laughter.

Veronica asks “What is happening? Why was that funny?” as the joke falls flat for her.

Jamal asks: “Wait, do you not know about that?”

Showing the age difference between herself, her daughter, and her boyfriend, Veronica explained: “I feel very left out and slightly confused.”

Veronica is 10 years Jamal’s senior

Despite not grasping the “What are those?” joke, Veronica was keen to see the silver lining in it all.

Speaking of the moment, the 37-year-old said she initially had some concerns over getting into a relationship with Jamal, 27, as he’s 10 years younger than her.

Despite feeling like “an ancient dinosaur” because of the misunderstanding, she explained: “This might be one of the benefits. He kind of like bridged the gap. He can be the Chloe translator.”
