Role: Plaintiff — Veronica St. James (Female, 35, Any Race)
Veronica St. James is suing professional matchmaker Simone Reynolds, claiming Simone paired her with men who were unsuitable and unattractive—and that Simone allegedly pulled candidates from a “Glow Up” program for men who feel unattractive instead of the premium matchmaking database Veronica paid for.
