Before Ryan Jenkins murdered Jasmine Fiore, his wife of five months, he called her repeatedly from the Mexico set of…
Rock of Love: Charm School. “The funny thing about Megan was her stated ambition, which was to marry a millionaire,” says Cronin. “So we said, ‘What if we filled a house with millionaires and they were competing for you as their trophy wife?’”
In 2009, as today, there was no standardized system for vetting potential reality show contestants. While the specific process varies by network and production company, generally candidates first fill out a detailed packet of personal information containing “every address you’ve ever had, every job you’ve ever had, everything from your mortgage to your car,” says Jodi Wincheski, who competed on CBS’.
But when Hauserman let producers know which millionaire she wanted in the end, they had other ideas. Jenkins, the producers explained, “wasn’t likable in his interviews” and was just “putting on a show” for her. Though they never explicitly told her not to choose him, producers made it clear to Hauserman that viewers wouldn’t want Jenkins to win, and strongly encouraged her to rethink her options. She did. In the penultimate episode, she sent Jenkins home.
When they finally spoke, though, Jenkins had some even bigger news. “He called me and said, ‘I have to tell you something. I was so upset when I left the show, I went to Vegas and I met a girl. She’s my soulmate, and we got married,’” remembers Hauserman. Cronin notes that in retrospect, Jenkins’ quickie marriage made a strange kind of sense. “He was really desperate to have a trophy wife,” he explains.
