90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Jasmine Pineda has been posting a lot about her new boyfriend Matt Branis on Instagram and being very sly about it. Jasmine is a 38-year-old woman from Panama City. She worked as a teacher in Panama before she met Gino Palazzolo on a sugar baby website. Jasmine suggested she was head over heels in love with Gino when they met each other in person on Before the 90 Days season 2. However, Jasmine also manipulated Gino into giving her money. Jasmine left Gino as soon as she came to the U.S.
Jasmine and Gino married in June 2023. She started having fights with him after Jasmine realized Gino had made a mistake while filling up her K-1 visa, and he forgot to mention her sons’ names in the application. Jasmine started losing her hair and admitted she was depressed. The fights had a different effect on Gino, who lost his interest in his wife. Jasmine complained about Gino not giving her attention. After Happily Ever After? she found the solution to her problem. It was Matt who Jasmine met in Michigan itself.
Jasmine participated in the beauty pageant in September 2023 and filmed the Tell All in February 2024. There was already some tension between Gino and Jasmine when they were at the pageant venue, but things had just been escalating from there onwards. Jasmine wanted Gino to submit her application for a green card as soon as possible so she could go and meet her kids in Panama. Gino had told her he only had 20 percent of the paperwork left to fill out. Jasmine wasn’t convinced and asked Gino to hand over her passport and legal documents.
“You just ruined my life, you hate me.” Jasmine told Gino.
Jasmine revealed Gino had been withholding her passport. He had quit his job to take care of Jasmine’s immigration process, but he had used it as an excuse to sit at home and play fantasy football. Jasmine realized Gino had no ambition. He wasn’t interested in her either. She used it as an excuse to cheat on Gino. Perhaps she wanted to teach him a lesson. According to blogger 90dayfianceupdate, Jasmine met Matt at her gym in November 2023. Jasmine is a regular at the Planet Fitness in Belleville, Michigan. She’d even taken Gino there in a season 8 episode.
Jasmine became friends with the man, but it’s not known exactly when their affair started. Jasmine has never posted any of Matt’s photos on her Instagram, but he is being referred to as her boyfriend. The blogger claims that Jasmine has been living with Matt since they met. Gino kicked Jasmine out when he came to know about her having an extramarital relationship. Jasmine and Gino did not talk about this incident or about Matt on Happily Ever After? when they attended the Tell All. She was only complaining about Gino not having sex with her.
Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.
However, Jasmine has been spotted commenting on Matt’s Instagram photos from a while ago. Matt is from Romania but currently lives in Detroit. His photos have made fans comment that he even looks a little like Gino. Jasmine has removed the comments from Matt’s IG photos now, and he, too, has disabled his comments section so that fans can’t ask him questions. Some of Matt’s videos on Instagram show him working out at Planet Fitness. Jasmine still follows him and he follows her back.
In June 2024, 90dayfianceupdate shared screenshots of a post on Jasmine’s Instagram that showed her and Matt openly flirting with each other. Jasmine is an ambassador for fashion brand Fashion Nova. She often shares pictures of her dressed in the brand’s outfits and modeling on IG. Jasmine had worn a head-to-toe denim look with a butterfly-shaped corset, wide jeans, and a long, loose overcoat, all in denim. Matt commented, “Lookin clean in all jean” on the post and called Jasmine “yommy!” Jasmine replied to Matt with a shy emoji and used the hashtag “#blushed.”
Jasmine seemed to have soft-launched her relationship on social media in June 2024. She decided to tease fans about her new boyfriend on her Stories. Jasmine shared a picture of her holding hands with a mystery man. She put a black-and-white filter on the picture. Jasmine perhaps wanted to mask the man’s skin tone, so fans wouldn’t know that it was not Gino. She was also wearing a big bow-shaped ring on her index finger, but her wedding ring was nowhere to be seen. It was a sign that the man sitting opposite Jasmine was not Gino.
Jasmine recently celebrated her 38th birthday. While Jasmine usually takes vacations on her birthday, this time she chose to ring it at home. She celebrated her special day with her loved ones in the U.S., such as Matt and Gino’s family members. Matt got a special gift for Jasmine on her birthday. Jasmine shared a picture of a sweet birthday card which seemed to have come from him. She captioned it “ily too babe” which showed how much Jasmine has come to love her new man. However, Jasmine quickly deleted the photo, still wanting to keep things private.
Jasmine is very smart when it comes to making sure she’s never breaking her NDA. She posts photos that are so cryptic that it’s difficult to decipher the current location where she is and who she is with. Even when Jasmine moved to the U.S. in early 2023, she continued posting pictures from Panama to pretend as if her visa had still not been approved. She avoids revealing anything about her current living space. She prefers posting zoomed-in pictures of her food or some clips of her working out at Planet Fitness.
While Jasmine is playing her cards right, some 90 Day Fiancé fans like kikiandkibbitz are smarter than she is. In August 2024, the blogger came across Matt’s Facebook page where he uses the name “Bran Matei.” Matt has a Facebook marketplace where he is selling off a few of his things, including a 2020 Cadillac ct5 Premium Luxury Sedan 4D for $20,000, and photos of the car’s interior that he has shared reveal that Jasmine has taken several selfies of herself while driving it to post on her Instagram.
Jasmine has been on cloud nine since she was crowned Miss Latina International at the Miss International World Pageant. She even wore her sash and crown to the 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? Tell All. Jasmine wants to make it big as a model in the U.S. She’s already started posting for fashion brands on Instagram. She works with Fashion Nova and mixes and matches her outfits to create some stunning looks. The quality of Jasmine’s pictures has increased infinitely since she started dating Matt. Being an actor, he must know about modeling as well.
