The Wedding That Failed: Why Gino and Jasmine Separated
Gino and Jasmine’s relationship was defined by explosive arguments, accusations of infidelity, and deep-seated trust issues, which were on full display during their time on *90 Day Fiancé: The Last Resort*. Despite these challenges, the couple officially tied the knot in June 2023 during an intimate wedding ceremony held in Michigan.
The marriage, however, was short-lived. By late 2025, the couple was confirmed to be legally separated with divorce proceedings underway. The exact, final reason for the divorce is multi-faceted, but the core issues remain the same: ongoing toxicity, jealousy, and the fundamental incompatibility that plagued them from the start.
The divorce process itself has become another source of drama. Reports indicate that Jasmine officially filed for divorce from Gino, but she has allegedly been unsuccessful in serving him the papers. Furthermore, Gino is reportedly delaying the filing process intentionally. This intentional delay is rumored to be a tactic to avoid splitting assets with Jasmine, or potentially to wait out the period required for her Conditional Green Card to transition to a permanent one, which would complicate her ability to remain in the U.S. without his continued sponsorship.
The entire situation highlights the precarious nature of the K-1 visa process. Jasmine, who came to the US on a K-1 visa sponsored by Gino, is now facing a terrifying immigration crisis. The possibility of deportation looms if her marriage-based immigration status is revoked or if she cannot complete the process due to the divorce, especially since the K-1 visa is void once the couple separates before the full process is complete.
Jasmine’s New Life: New Partner, New Baby, and Cookbook Plans
The most shocking update for fans is Jasmine Pineda’s rapid progression into a new life with a new partner, Matt Branistareanu, while still legally married to Gino Palazzolo. This new relationship is a central storyline on *90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?* Season 9.
The Matt Branistareanu Relationship
Jasmine introduced her new love interest, Matt Branistareanu, on the show, and the relationship has moved quickly. She revealed the new relationship to Gino on air, causing further friction. Matt reportedly proposed to Jasmine, but in a surprising twist, Jasmine later hinted that she will "never marry" Matt, despite accepting his proposal. This decision keeps her marital status with Gino Palazzolo in a complex state and suggests she is prioritizing her Conditional Green Card status over a second marriage.
The Arrival of Baby Matilda
Adding to the complexity, Jasmine and Matt Branistareanu welcomed a baby girl named Matilda. This marks Jasmine’s third child; she has two sons, Juance and JC, who still reside in Panama. The birth of Matilda has been openly shared on the show, providing a clear indication that Jasmine has fully moved on from Gino and is building a new family in the United States.
The Panama Children Controversy
A persistent and sad storyline throughout the couple’s journey has been the absence of Jasmine’s two sons, Juance and JC, from her life in the US. The boys remain in Panama, and the reason for their continued separation is a major source of fan controversy. Reports suggest that Gino Palazzolo made a significant error on the initial K-1 visa application by forgetting to include Jasmine’s children, which has severely complicated their ability to immigrate to the US. Jasmine’s hope is to eventually bring her sons to the United States, a goal that is now further jeopardized by her impending divorce and immigration issues.
What’s Next for Gino and Jasmine in 2025?
As of late 2025, the future for both Gino and Jasmine is highly uncertain, but their paths are clearly diverging.
- Gino Palazzolo: Gino continues to work as a Product Development Engineer at Faurecia in Michigan. His focus appears to be on navigating the divorce proceedings and protecting his assets. His storyline on *Happily Ever After?* will likely focus on his emotional response to Jasmine’s new relationship and baby.
- Jasmine Pineda: Jasmine is establishing her new life with Matt and baby Matilda. She is also leveraging her reality TV fame to pursue other ventures, including writing a cookbook. Her biggest immediate hurdle is resolving her immigration status—the Conditional Green Card—which is tied directly to her estranged husband, Gino. Her fear of deportation is a very real threat if the divorce is finalized before her permanent residency is secured.
The relationship between Gino and Jasmine has officially transitioned from a volatile marriage into a complex legal and immigration battle. While the wedding happened in June 2023, the love story is over, replaced by the drama of divorce, a new family, and the high-stakes fight for Jasmine’s right to remain in the United States with her children.
