Shocking Betrayal! Gino CHEATS on Jasmine: The 90 Day Fiancé Scandal Revealed!

The 90 Day Fiancé universe has never been short on scandal, but the tangled web between Jasmine Pineda, Gino Palazzolo, and newcomer Matt Branis may be the franchise’s most explosive storyline yet. From the moment Jasmine first appeared onscreen during the early days of her relationship with Gino, she captured the audience with her fiery personality, intense emotions, and unapologetic honesty. As a permanent fixture across several spin-offs, fans followed Jasmine from Panama to the United States, where she married Gino in June 2023. But instead of happily ever after, Jasmine found herself in a collapsing marriage plagued by emotional distance, intimacy struggles, and betrayal. When she appeared on 90 Day: The Last Resort, Jasmine stunned viewers by suggesting an open marriage after a full year of intimacy drought with Gino, and though he reluctantly agreed, the decision would ignite a firestorm that neither could contain. Now, as Jasmine navigates a love triangle involving Gino and her new partner Matt—who is also the father of her newborn daughter Matilda—viewers are left picking sides in one of reality TV’s most volatile splits.

As season 9 of Happily Ever After unfolds, fans were left confused and outraged by the absence of Jasmine’s daughter Matilda in the early episodes. Theories ran wild until Jasmine took to Instagram to clarify: the footage airing had been filmed nine months before her baby was born. She wasn’t even pregnant yet—proving once again how the timeline of reality TV can skew viewers’ perceptions. But that clarification only opened the floodgates. More revelations came spilling out when Jasmine called out Gino for blatantly lying at the tell-all. While he painted himself as a victim who hadn’t dated anyone due to the show’s NDA, Jasmine exposed the truth—that he had been seeing other women the entire time and simply chose to lie on national television. As if the infidelity wasn’t enough, Jasmine also revealed she wasn’t even allowed to speak during the tell-all, constantly interrupted by vicious insults targeting not only her but also her unborn child. With emotions boiling over and trust shattered, Jasmine’s relationship with Gino began to spiral faster than ever before, especially after she found support—both emotionally and physically—in the arms of Matt, a man she met at the gym in Michigan and initially introduced as “just a friend.”

But “just a friend” quickly evolved into something much more. Jasmine and Matt’s bond grew deeper, ultimately resulting in her unexpected pregnancy. The irony? This happened under the very open-marriage arrangement that Gino had reluctantly approved—an agreement that was supposed to help save their crumbling relationship. Instead, it detonated it. The birth of Matilda in April 2025 further complicated the web of obligations and emotions. Though still legally married to Gino, Jasmine relocated to Miami with Matt and began building a new chapter, one that seemed more stable, at least on the surface. But as fans quickly realized, even this new romance wasn’t immune to turmoil. In recent episodes, Jasmine confessed that Gino blocked her on every platform—except email—and refused to acknowledge her messages, cutting off all contact. Meanwhile, Gino, now seething with resentment and public embarrassment, reportedly began seeing another woman behind Jasmine’s back, further fueling the drama. In retaliation, Jasmine posted a cryptic but clearly aimed message, mocking Gino with a poorly Photoshopped image replacing him with Matt and declaring herself “the flame that burns down every fake friend, useless lover, and snake.”

Yet the war between Jasmine and Gino wasn’t just emotional—it turned legal. Gino, perhaps driven by revenge or sheer frustration, allegedly reported Jasmine to both CPS and U.S. Immigration in an attempt to have her deported. The bombshell broke during a shocking episode preview where Jasmine tearfully told Gino’s cousin’s wife Michelle that Gino had called to say he’d “already gone to immigration.” The betrayal left Jasmine in emotional shambles, fearing not only separation from her child but also removal from the country she now called home. Matt, her new partner, expressed his terror during their discussion, saying, “I don’t want anything to happen. I’m scared just like you are.” In a stunning Instagram story, Jasmine accused a cast member—presumably Gino—of being racist and malicious in his efforts to ruin her life, sparking widespread backlash online. Fans, split between Team Jasmine and Team Gino, flooded social media with both outrage and support, dissecting every word, every leaked screenshot, every cryptic quote. But one fact remained undeniable: Jasmine’s place in America—and in the hearts of fans—was now hanging by a thread.

Even Jasmine’s relationship with Matt, which had once looked like a salvation arc, began showing signs of wear. Though he stepped into the father role for Matilda and appeared supportive at first, recent episodes show Matt looking emotionally detached, uncomfortable, and overwhelmed. Fans noted that he often looks “checked out,” prompting speculation that he regrets getting involved in this love triangle from hell. Jasmine, never one to hold back, revealed on camera that Matt thinks she’s a hoarder and might need a full-blown intervention due to their chaotic living conditions—an ironic twist considering she had once complained incessantly about Gino’s hygiene. Despite the friction, Jasmine and Matt remain together for now, seemingly bound more by their co-parenting responsibilities than romantic chemistry. They haven’t confirmed a breakup, but neither have they projected stability. All of this unfolds while Jasmine continues grappling with postpartum health issues, rising legal fears, and emotional exhaustion—all of which play out publicly in real-time for an audience eager to consume every painful twist.

In the end, Jasmine Pineda’s journey on 90 Day Fiancé has transformed from a love story into a battle for survival—emotional, legal, and personal. What began as an international romance with Gino devolved into accusations of betrayal, failed intimacy, toxic jealousy, and finally, a vicious tug-of-war involving a child and the threat of deportation. Jasmine remains a polarizing figure: loved by many for her raw vulnerability and hated by others for her impulsive decisions and sharp tongue. Yet no one can deny that she is the firebrand center of a story that has become the beating heart of Happily Ever After season 9. Whether she ends up back with Gino, settles down with Matt, or walks away from both, Jasmine’s saga is far from over. And in the world of 90 Day Fiancé, where love is often more about war than peace, one thing is clear—Jasmine isn’t just surviving the drama. She is the drama.
