I spoke too soon, my apologies. When I tested this , it seems settings context object only works for corenode settings and not for user settings. The other option you can try is make the following restapi call to get the verification status. If the email has been verified, then the value is true else this returns nothing (blank).
/restapi/vc/users/login/<login>/settings/name/user.email_verified or /restapi/vc/users/self/settings/name/user.email_verified
A point to note is that this call works only for admin or for the user itself.
Hope this helps. Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks so much for your help. It seems that there is an issue with the "Ask a Question" widget, it will allow a user to be directed to the Post a new message page via this widget even when the user has not verified their e-mail address and the setting of "Require user to verify e-mail" has been enabled.
What then happens, is that the user types their post and attempts to post the message and the page just refreshes over and over.
Until this is fixed, we are placing an announcement on the post page, just for people that have not verified their e-mail address so they are aware it is a requirement.
The first snippet in your 2nd reply worked, and we are going to deploy today! Thanks again.
