NORTH CAROLINA — It was the «magical» wedding fans had been waiting for since late 2025, but one iconic face was missing from the crowd. As Veronica Rodriguez and her new husband, Seth, shared stunning photos of their nuptials, the «90 Day Fiancé» community immediately noticed a glaring absence: Tim Malcolm.
For years, Tim and Veronica have been the gold standard for «exes-turned-best-friends,» co-parenting daughter Chloe and appearing together on Pillow Talk. However, it appears that in the new era of Veronica’s life, the «bestie» has been sidelined for the «husband.»
The «Inappropriate» Truth
After weeks of rumors suggesting that Seth’s discomfort with their bond was the cause of the drama, Veronica finally broke her silence. Responding to fan theories and blogger speculation, Rodriguez confirmed that Tim was indeed not present at the ceremony.
«Tim didn’t attend because it wouldn’t be appropriate, and that was completely understood by everyone,» Veronica stated. While she tried to soften the blow by explaining that Tim was actually at her father’s Florida home «enjoying a free vacation» and house-sitting, fans aren’t buying the casual excuse.
Seth vs. Tim: A History of Tension?
The wedding comes on the heels of a rocky road for the couple. In late 2025, Veronica and Seth made headlines for a domestic violence case that was eventually dropped after the pair reconciled. This volatile history has led many fans to believe that Seth is marking his territory.
«She may have learned from past failed relationships that having Tim involved is a no-no for a lot of guys,» one viewer commented. Others were more blunt, suggesting that Seth simply didn’t want his wife’s famous ex-boyfriend standing at the altar—even as a «bridesperson.»
A New Best Friend
In a move that felt like a dagger to many long-time viewers, Veronica claimed she has a «new best friend» now: her husband. While she insists she will continue to co-parent with Tim, the decision to label his presence at her wedding as «inappropriate» marks a massive shift in their decade-long dynamic.
