Kimberly Menzies is back on the market, and for once in this franchise, the breakup came without a single dramatic confrontation. The 90 Day: The Single Life star announced on her Instagram Story on August 3 that she and boyfriend Wayne Hope have called it quits.
“Hi lovelies! Just a quick update. After a lot of thought, Wayne and I have decided to part ways and remain friends,” Kimberly, 56, wrote. “Long-distance relationships can be incredibly challenging, and we’ve come to the decision that this is what’s best for both of us.”
She was direct about the tone of the split. “There is no drama or ill will, just two people who care about each other and want the very best for one another. We’re grateful for the memories we’ve shared and wish each other nothing but happiness as we move forward separately. Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way.”
90 Day Fiancé: How They Found Each Other
Kimberly and Wayne’s relationship began the way a lot of modern romances do: a well-timed DM. She spent the first half of season 5 of The Single Life focused on her family before traveling to England to meet Wayne in person.
“I first noticed Wayne through social media. I just thought Wayne was really cute and super funny, so I slid in the DMs. We’ve been talking every day since,” she shared in a May episode, describing Wayne as 52, divorced, a father of three, and based in the UK. He told her his favorite activities were the gym and time with family, and he took pride in having built his own business.
90 Day Fiancé: She Saw The Risk Coming
Even while falling for Wayne, Kimberly was upfront about her hesitation, and it turned out to be well founded. “This could legit be my person,” she said at the time. “But another international relationship. Do I really want to invest my time and money to go over to another country to have my heart broken again?”
That fear had history behind it. Kimberly has navigated long-distance relationships before, including her time on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days in 2022 with Nigerian rapper Usman “SojaBoy” Umar. The distance problem that ended things with Wayne is the same pattern she has run into more than once.
90 Day Fiancé: A Season Of Focusing On Herself
Even as the relationship wound down, Kimberly spent the past several months investing in herself. In April, she debuted a new smile after dental implant surgery. The month before that, she opened up about a major weight loss milestone.
“Losing 70 pounds has really helped my self-confidence! I have more energy and just feel good all around,” she told Us Weekly in March. “I used to despise shopping for clothes and now I love it!”
That timeline matters here. Kimberly was not sitting still waiting on a relationship that ultimately couldn’t survive the distance. She was building confidence and taking care of herself in parallel, which may be part of why this breakup reads as calm rather than devastating.
90 Day Fiancé: Still Following Each Other
One detail suggests the “no ill will” framing is genuine rather than just a polite public statement: Kimberly and Wayne still follow each other on social media. Wayne hasn’t publicly commented on the split. Still, his continued follow shows that it ended as Kimberly said—mutually and without hard feelings.
Kimberly joined the franchise in 2022. She shares her life from San Diego, California. Two years after Wayne, one relationship down, she remains focused on the version of herself she has been building all year.
