Megan Wants a Millionaire Ryan Alexander Jenkins and Jasmine Fiore Murder

Ryan Alexander Jenkins, a contestant on a reality TV show, Megan Wants a Millionaire, has been named "person of interest" by the Buena Park Police Department in the murder of Jasmine Fiore. Megan Wants a Millionaire is a currently airing VH1 reality show profiling Megan Hauserman's search for a well-to-do suitor and her goal of becoming a millionaire's "trophy wife". Jasmine Fiore's body was found stuffed in a suitcase and dumped in an Orange County trash bin. Jenkins, Canadian national, was first reported as possibly fleeing to Canada but his publicist spoke to TMZ, stating that Ryan Alexander Jenkins would be speaking to his attorney and to the police. There was no time frame mention in Jenkins' publicist's statement.

Who is Ryan Alexander Jenkins and how is he connected to Megan Hauserman?
Jenkins was a contestant on Megan Wants a Millionaire, and by Hauserman's admission was also a finalist. Fans of the VH1 show recognize Ryan's name and face as a smooth talker, who told Megan that she would "love Canadian bacon" when he first met Hauserman. Megan Wants a Millionaire has only aired its first three episodes, showing millionaire suitors buying Megan lavish gifts and spending large amounts of money on her. The show's premise is that Megan wants to be a "trophy wife" to a guy who has the money and is willing to spend it all on her. Ryan was doing very well in the first three episodes of the show. My personal bet was that Ryan would make it to the finals of Megan Wants a Millionaire and possibly even win.

Ryan Alexander Jenkins appeared to be very smooth, handsome and well put together. He claimed to be a wealthy Canadian and very interested in Megan. Jenkins' reality show profile has been removed from the VH1 website, but it previously stated that Ryan was a Calgary investment banker worth $2.5 million who "has left many amazing women in his life primarily because he wanted more women." He said he molds "player girls" into "princesses" and listed his nickname as "Smooth Operator." Ryan is also 32 years old.

During one of Megan Wants a Millionaire episodes, Ryan told Megan that he is a Canadian citizen and would require a US citizenship in order to work in this country. Jenkins told Megan that they would need to get married so that he could get his US citizenship, and be allowed to stay. Megan did not find this statement odd, but she has seemed extremely impressed by Ryan's smooth ways.

Ryan Alexander Jenkins made it to the finals of Megan Wants a Millionaire, but was reportedly booted off the show and did not win Megan's love. Immediately after getting kicked off the show, as reported by Hauserman to TMZ.com, Jenkins went to a Las Vegas strip club. Jenkins met Fiore at a strip club in Las Vegas where she worked as a dancer. Megan says Jenkins married Fiore two days later. Remember, Jenkins needed to be married to a US citizen in order to stay in the country and seek work. Jenkins was smart, nice and Megan Hauserman is shocked by the turn of events, claims TMZ.
