Jasmine Pineda, a notable figure from 90 Day: The Last Resort, appears to be contemplating marriage with her baby daddy, Matt Branis. This potential decision could bring significant emotional distress to Gino Palazzolo, Jasmine’s previous partner. Originally hailing from Panama, Jasmine began her relationship with Gino after they connected through a sugar baby website. Their romance was featured in the 90 Day Fiancé series starting in 2021, where they navigated various challenges, particularly trust issues. Gino ultimately proposed to Jasmine with a simple yet heartfelt ring, which she joyfully accepted.
Despite the spark in their relationship, it faltered after Jasmine relocated to Michigan. She struggled with the cold climate and was unsettled by Gino’s untidy living situation. Additionally, she resisted the idea of involving Gino’s family in their wedding plans. Nevertheless, Jasmine and Gino went ahead with their wedding, despite the underlying conflicts. After a few turbulent months together, they sought therapy in season 2 of 90 Day: The Last Resort, where Jasmine voiced her unhappiness regarding Gino’s emotional availability. To resolve their intimacy issues, she even proposed the idea of an open marriage.

Jasmine Is Currently In Her Third Trimester
Jasmine’s friendship with Matt blossomed at their local gym, where they exchanged confidences about their respective lives. Their camaraderie grew post-Jasmine’s marriage to Gino, and during the course of 90 Day: The Last Resort, she referred to Matt simply as a friend. However, as intimacy challenges arose in her marriage, Jasmine made her intentions clear about wanting to be with Matt and even altered the name of her Instagram account shared with Gino to include Matt’s name.
In a surprising announcement in February, Jasmine revealed her pregnancy with Matt—not Gino—after previously asserting she was not fertile. This revelation took many by surprise as she disclosed expectations for a third child. Over the next few weeks, Jasmine took to social media to clarify details surrounding her pregnancy, stating that she conceived around mid to late 2024. This contradicted her earlier claims of fertility issues, fueling speculation about her motivations behind the pregnancy.
Will Jasmine Marry Matt Branis?
Jasmine Is Completely Smitten With Matt
Jasmine’s social media presence regarding Matt oscillates between friendship and romantic undertones. She labels him as a friend and the father of her child, yet romanticizes their relationship openly online. Jasmine consistently commends Matt for his parenting skills and showcases moments of him assisting with their preparations for welcoming their new child, expected in the second quarter of 2025. Given her growing affection for Matt, it wouldn’t be surprising if Jasmine pursues a more serious commitment, potentially marriage, once her divorce from Gino is finalized.
Gino Could Be Crushed By A Wedding
Jasmine Marrying Matt Would Devastate Gino
Gino has always been an emotional individual, pouring both time and resources into his relationship with Jasmine. He provided support during her time in Panama, even financing her cosmetic surgery. Gino devoted his early 50s to creating a wholesome relationship for them, culminating in helping Jasmine secure her K-1 visa and organizing their dream wedding. However, after feeling betrayed by Jasmine and witnessing her negative behavior, Gino’s feelings changed. He found it difficult to maintain intimacy and sought to take steps back, only for Jasmine to propose an open marriage suggestion, further deepening his heartache.
While Gino seems to be moving on from Jasmine, the wounding impact of his investment in their relationship remains. If Jasmine marries Matt, it would undoubtedly inflict emotional pain on Gino, as he would struggle with the sight of the woman he helped thrive in America marrying another man. With Jasmine’s pregnancy potentially already causing him distress, the prospect of her marrying Matt could be devastating. Gino may come to regret investing his heart in Jasmine if he hasn’t reached that conclusion already.
