Kimberly Menzies has stunned the 90 Day Fiance universe by publicly backing Big Ed’s latest business venture — and she didn’t come alone. For the first time in franchise history, Kimberly and her son Jamal appeared alongside Ed Brown to promote his new wine brand, Big Ed Malbec, raising eyebrows across the fandom.
The move comes as a surprise given Kimberly’s past entanglements with Usman and her reputation for fiery Tell-All confrontations. Fans recall her slamming Cortney for leading on Usman, proving she’s never shied away from controversy. Yet now, instead of reigniting old drama, Kimberly has chosen to stand beside one of the franchise’s most polarizing figures.
Big Ed, who recently launched his vineyard project in Argentina, invited Kimberly to a promotional event where she posed with him and Jamal, sipping wine and smiling for Instagram. Kimberly admitted she “never thought” she could befriend Ed due to past drama, but insisted they had buried the hatchet. Jamal’s presence added legitimacy to the endorsement, signaling that this partnership was more than a casual photo-op.
Still, fans are divided. Some see Kimberly’s support as genuine friendship, while others suspect a calculated alliance designed to boost Ed’s struggling reputation and Kimberly’s own visibility. The fact that the visit appeared “arranged” rather than spontaneous only fuels speculation.
For Big Ed, the endorsement marks a milestone in his long-held dream of breaking into the wine industry after years in real estate and reality TV. For Kimberly, it represents a pivot from heartbreak and weight-loss journeys to a surprising new chapter of collaboration.
Whether this unlikely alliance is a sincere bond or a strategic move, one thing is certain: Kimberly and Jamal’s public support has reignited debate about loyalty, opportunism, and survival in the chaotic world of 90 Day Fiance.
