Melony Velasco Jennings
My Treacherous Wife
The abbreviated story:-
I met Mel briefly in a pub in 2016 when she was in UK on a tourist visa visiting her quite long term pensioner Facebook boyfriend Jerry who had been to Philippines a few times I believe.
Out of the blue I got a text from her asking if we could meet. I had the story of how badly Jerry was treating her (what I later discovered was the standard narrative) and one thing led to another, She even stayed a few days with me – God only knows what lie she told Jerry – I was soon to discover exactly how he felt!
I went to Philippines to see her, unbeknown to me that her relationship with Jerry was still going strong – he too had once again been in the Philippines. At this point I was blissfully unaware that Mel habitually maintains numerous long term relationships with men. This appears to have been conducted in order to provide income streams (but admittedly possibly seeking 'improvement' however that is to be judged – financial or otherwise). I myself unwittingly became one of these income streams whilst she was in the UK on a tourist visa visiting her then 'current boyfriend' – so I am as guilty as the next man of falling into this 'trap'. The seduction formula is always the same and always involves 'how badly she is being treated' by the current incumbent! Certainly, this is what I was told by her when I began to see her.
Mel then came to Uk to stay with me on a Tourist Visa that I arranged. On the second of these visas Mel did precisely the same thing to me as she had done to Gerry – in fact just 24 days after arriving here in the UK. No idea how many 'boyfriends' she was running at the time but one things for sure, she was telling them all what a bastard I was!
She started seeing Pete whilst lying that she was staying with her friend Mella at Billing Aquadrome. She would manufacture arguments so that she could go off to Mella's/Petes.
Here's a photo of them together in London.
The full story of all this deception came from Mel's ex-friend Mella who, it appears, ran out of patience with all the lying and cover stories. The final straw was her realizing that I had booked to visit Mel in the Philippines when Mella knew full well that Pete was going over there to marry her!
This might be a bit difficult to read (small print) but here is the transcript of the WhatsApp 'great reveal' by Mella which, of course, I appreciated greatly but the timing was so difficult for me, I just didn't know what to do. But, thinking back, if Mel had still been in this country things could have gotten very messy indeed and I'm pretty sure, one way or another things would have ended forever at that point!
Here is the photo and video to which Mella refers:-
Yes, the happy couple, you could be excused for thinking 'What a Bitch'!
Of course, as Mella said in her Msgs; Melony was not happy with her! This is quite evident in this message sent by Melony to Mella, it does rather show a bit of the true, scary, violent personality which most people would not believe was possible of her - but one that I've seen many times.
What a nice friend!!
Note, 'you are the one pushing me to go back to Ian'!
So, after watching the video a couple of hundred times; rather than going to the pub or speaking to anyone about it - I just went and poured my heart out in my 'Betrayal Letter', written really for me I guess - knowing all the long that Melony simply just would not 'get it'!
The response I got was as follows, I've highlighted a few of the promises to be broken:-

Yes!! Some 'Tease' - she did not know that Mela had sent me the Proposal Video!!
There is no lie that Melony will not tell if she thinks she can get away with it
And Yet, almost exactly one year later I got married to Mel! Why?
Well, after her initial response, the New Year of 2019 brought a barrage of dark messages, phone calls and Suicide Threats - I relented and my resolve caved in and despite the best of advice from my good friend Roy Anderson I renewed Melony's Visa, and our marriage followed in October of that year on the absolute understanding (and marriage vows of course!) that all this past behaviour would cease. I genuinely trusted her - I relied upon the promises that she made in her commitment/begging letter above and believed that together we could be the 'Team Jennings' that I had always thought was out of my reach.
As it turned out (again, as predicted by the Sage Roy! and, to be fair, Mel's now Ex-Friend Mella) this behaviour appears to be endemic/hard wired and nothing changed, with Mel maintaining and cultivating multiple relationships – both online and actual – to what end? Well money I guess! There does always appear to be the mystifying request for copies of passports which is odd. I recall, but did not manage to copy, the comments accompanying the following passport:-
Gary:- "Hope this is ok"
Mel:- "Yes, its fine"
Make what you will out of that! It's got to be something to do with long term planning though surely???
I could not say how many of these 'on-going' relationships there were but 'The Gary Bryant Relationship' went to a whole different level in terms of undying love, presents and marriage (although, to be fair marriage appears to be a given in all Mel's relationships!)
Mel rarely leaves her phone unattended, indeed it is usually in her hand! Therefore only snippets or sights of these constant messages were available - probably a good thing actually considering the very hurtful nature of some of the things I did see (I remember all the typing when she was at pub with 'him'!) - it does make you think what other horrible things must have been said! The duration of the voice calls is also extraordinary!
If you thought the above was a bit of a 'Kick in the Teeth', well check out this next exchange!
Whilst I didn't know it for sure at the time, I had guessed that the money would now be flowing from Gary. Whilst I have never had any access to Mel's bank account I have had the odd sight whenever we have had to print six months worth of statements to submit for visa applications. I did spot confirmation that Gary was indeed very much making his contribution to the Melony Velasco Jennings retirement fund!
By February 2024 (after the last trip to the Philippines and all the 'husband/wife' correspondence) I'd had enough and asked her to leave and go and live with Gary (I may have said "Your Husband Gary"). She refused and Gary wouldn't answer my calls begging him to come and get her and her 'stuff'! Of course, as usual, Mel claimed to have 'blocked him' - not for a single moment did I believe this, heard it all before - I know for a fact that they have just moved their communications from WhatsApp to TikTok and it is still very much 'on-going'! As indeed is another relationship, which has been rumbling on for well over 18 months - poor old Gary, if only he knew that he too was being cheated upon! Check out the photo of this specimen - Norman! Note Mel's secret msg technique - it revolves around deleting chats as they happen! Smart!
Yep! She certainly knows how to pick 'em (and make 'em love her!) - I know what you are thinking, I've been thinking the same thing - 'What does it say about me!' I always thought that I was half decent but logically I must be in the same league as these guys. Whatever Mel says or does, she certainly manages to get these guys to commit! The only exception really being Jerry, the guy she was seeing when I met her - he flat refused to make any commitment - good on him, mind you - he's dead now!! So that didn't exactly do him much good - but he sure dodged a bullet!
Long and short of it - whenever Mel tells me that she is meeting someone from work, I immediately assume that she is meeting a boyfriend. If she is in the toilet on a phone call or sending a msg, again I always assume it is a conversation with a boyfriend. If she tells me she is going away over-night with her friend - I know she is with a boyfriend! Not really the basis of a good marriage, nor what I believed that I had signed up for.
The Norman relationship has being going really well, she often goes round to his house straight from work, then back here to the stupid husband. Check it out, just an hour but well, you've got to grab the time when you can!:-
On March 25th this year - 2025, Mel was attending a work's funeral - which was true, but I always knew that at some point she'd be off to Norman's and sure enough, just before 7pm Uber let me know, earlier than I'd expected really:-
I knew nothing good could come of me attending the 'party' but what do you do? I really wanted to pack her up an overnight bag, drop it off on Norman's step and come home and change the house locks. I should have done that but it was all happening too quickly - plus there's never a locksmith around when you want one!
Yep, I didn't know what I was doing there really, what did I want to say/do - I had thought of 'live streaming' to her children - me confronting their Wonderful Mother as she left; but I'm no broadcaster and I was shaking with anticipation anyway.
So I waited for a couple of hours, watched the lights go off and on upstairs, imagining all the usual lies she'd be trotting out to him about what an absolute twat I am - all the same stuff I'd heard from her about how Jerry treated her, the same stuff she'd been telling Gary. When the Taxi did arrive to pick her up I kind of bottled everything I was going to do, I had my phone on but really didn't achieve very much. I just found myself saying to her that I'd rather she didn't come home and thought she should stay the night with Norman - I turned to him and asked him if she could stay! Yes - I could have made a better fist of things I guess - but how do you rehearse such things??
Of course, by the time I got back home she was already in and ready for me with the abuse 'How dare you, I know you are always following me etc.,' - I was the bad guy - no doubt about it!
I didn't see her again that night but I did receive a rather long Whatsapp msg from the toilet:-
I'm tempted to say, what the fuck have I done to deserve this? But I guess I have done plenty of bad things in my life and to be fair, Roy did warn me and I chose to ignore him!
Some would say that I should have taken that opportunity to hand her a knife - but I'm pretty sure it would have ended up in my chest - despite her text!
I did mention a while ago that I'd had all the suicide messages before when I'd told her that I wouldn't be getting her another Tourist Visa, not after the Pete Abel episode - I remember her leaving me a very disturbing message saying "all I ask is that you send my family some money so that they can pay for my funeral"!
Mel has promised/threatened that she will never leave me - no matter what! I believe this - to an extent! BUT Once she has what she wants in terms of British Citizenship my usefulness will be at an end! At that point I expect her to leave.
I don't even try to keep tabs on her relationships anymore (her phone has been even tighter in her hand over recent months) - I know my marriage is just a dried out husk now - I have done everything to try not to lose my marriage, even now I have no thoughts of seeking a divorce - this is all my doing so as The Jam say - 'You've made your bed, you better lie in it' Mr Jennings!
And here we are:-
As I've said before, I've never really gotten to the bottom of why she has these affairs/relationships - I've always assumed for extra money and eventually, in the right circumstance 'a better option'. The other day I asked her again and this time she came right out with it!
"To hurt you!"
Well, that's fair enough, mission accomplished, I did comment that if this was the reason then why try and keep it secret by telling lies and deleting messages? - of course, I got nowhere with that!
Yes, I know that I'm no great 'catch' but from what I've seen these boyfriends of hers are not Wealthy, Successful, Intelligent, or particularly Attractive so I still don't really get it.
She did say that the reason why she wants to hurt me is because I 'will not accept her family'. The word 'Accept' being key here - to me it means being pleasant, taking a casual interest, contributing to presents etc ...,
Wrong! Apparently it means 'Adopting'! Big difference, and certainly something I never signed up for (and never would have if it had been mentioned - I've spent my life trying to avoid families and crowds I ain't going to start now!) I kind of thought that buying a three-unit housing block for them to live in and buying six apartments to rent out for a steady income would have been enough, but it appears not!
I'm pretty sure that if 'push came to shove' none of her boyfriends would sign up for the 'Family Gig' either - Neither Gary or Norman seemed keen to jump at the chance of accommodating her either - why's everyone else smarter than me?
