90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Jasmine Pineda and her rumored boyfriend Matt Branis’ current relationship status is surprising. Jasmine from Panama was a single mom working as a teacher when Gino Palazzolo met her. Jasmine’s friend had created a profile for her on a website for sugar babies, and Gino, who sought young women out to take them on paid dates, liked the Panamanian woman. Gino let Jasmine down when she found out he had sent her racy photos to an ex-girlfriend. Jasmine still accepted Gino’s proposal, and they got engaged in December 2020.
Jasmine came to the U.S. in early 2023. She was upset with Gino because he had made a mistake in her sons’ immigration process. Gino promised Jasmine he would get her green card as soon as possible so she would go to Panama, but he kept stalling it. Jasmine also claimed that Gino was addicted to watching adult content because of which she was getting his attention in bed. Gino and Jasmine were last seen together in the HEA season 8 Tell All. However, Gino and Jasmine had already split by then, since the reunion was filmed in February 2024.
How Did Jasmine Meet Matt?
Jasmine hasn’t shared details of her new man on social media, but it was 90 Day Fiancé blogger 90dayfianceupdate who first revealed all details about Jasmine’s relationship to fans. On May 22, 2024, the blogger shared that Jasmine had been kicked out by Gino after he allegedly caught her cheating. At the time, the blogger did not reveal Matt’s name or his photographs, but they mentioned that Jasmine had met the man at Planet Fitness in Belleville, Michigan in November 2023. They claimed that Jasmine had been living with the man since Gino asked her to leave in December 2023.
The blogger decided to keep the man’s full name and photos private until the news was “publicly confirmed,” since Gino is under NDA and won’t talk about it. Interestingly, the post has been liked by Jasmine from her official Instagram page. One day later, the blogger decided to reveal who Jasmine’s alleged new man was. They revealed that his name was Matt and that he was a struggling actor. Matt goes by “Bran Matei” on Instagram, and he is Romanian-American.
Times Jasmine Talked About Matt On Social Media

Jasmine and Gino did not get to spend their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple together. Jasmine had received a Valentine’s Day surprise gift from a mystery person who sent her a greeting card along with a teddy bear. Jasmine told him that he was being missed and that she was looking forward to their next adventures together. In May 2024, Jasmine started acting a little bolder on social media. She had posted a TikTok where she was accompanied by a mystery man in a car. Jasmine referred to him as her “Chihuahua” in the clip posted by 90dayfiance.news.
When 90dayfianceupdate revealed that Jasmine had been cheating on Gino, they also provided proof of Jasmine and Matt living together. A photo that Matt has now deleted from his Instagram had shown the same breakfast items, plates, and dining table that Jasmine had posted about on her page. The “source” who spoke to the blogger confirmed that some of the pictures Jasmine had posted of herself in the last year were clicked in Matt’s living room and bedroom. Jasmine was promoting a fashion brand while wearing lingerie and lying on Matt’s bed.
What Makes Matt A Better Partner For Jasmine Than Gino?
Jasmine’s biggest complaints when it came to Gino were about him being stingy and not giving her attention. Jasmine, who often proved how sexual she was when she talked about her bedroom adventures boldly on camera, was being deprived of physical touch by Gino. Jasmine also saw how excited Gino was around a dancer he had met at a strip club for his bachelorette party. Jasmine felt jealous and there was a reason why Gino had not told her about the strip club visit. Gino was keeping secrets from Jasmine, like the lip gloss she discovered in his car.
Jasmine, who was dependent on Gino for her finances when she was in Panama, felt like he was controlling her with his money in the U.S.
Jasmine felt Gino was purposely avoiding going to work, to just sit at home and play fantasy football. He was also delaying her green card process after messing up with her kids’ visas. She might have started off as friends with Matt and slowly developed a connection. Jasmine was finding it difficult to make friends in Michigan. Perhaps the gym was the only place where she could spend time without worrying about her marriage.
Matt may have impressed Jasmine in ways that Gino never did. He seems to be a lot younger than Gino, although they seem to share a resemblance. Matt is also from the entertainment industry and Jasmine, wanting to have a pageant career, may have seen it as beneficial to date him. Matt makes Jasmine feel special by sending her flowers and gifts when she is feeling low. The fact that she has lived with him for almost a year now suggests Jasmine and Matt don’t fight the way she did with Gino when she screamed, yelled, and constantly cried on TV.
Jasmine & Matt’s Relationship Also Has It’s List Of Red Flags
Jasmine can be quite high maintenance and Gino was well aware of it. It was why he decided to control her spending habits once she made it to the U.S. Jasmine was also invested in changing things about herself which didn’t need to be changed. She’d even spent her wedding dress money on getting butt implants. In August 2024, KikiandKibbitz found Matt’s Facebook profile. There, Matt was spotted on the Marketplace where he was selling a few things, such as his 2020 Cadillac ct5 Premium Luxury Sedan 4D for $20,000 and even Jasmine’s used boots.
It looks like Matt is having a hard time keeping Jasmine satisfied whenever she demands money.
Moreover, Gino has recently been spending a lot of time with a woman he refers to as his “bestie” in his IG Stories. While fans first wondered if the woman was Gino’s new girlfriend after he dumped Jasmine, KikiandKibbitz spoke to the woman, who revealed she was not Gino’s love interest on 90 Day: The Single Life. However, the woman is Matt’s ex. They broke up in 2018 and Gino had reached out to the woman after seeing Jasmine posting romantic comments on Matt’s Instagram posts. Gino met the woman and they became friends.
Jasmine Is Hinting At A Split With Matt
Interestingly, in September 2024, Jasmine has been dropping several clues about her possibly having gone back to Gino. Jasmine first posted a picture of herself at a restaurant where she was wearing a shirt with the word “Wife” on it. Jasmine had previously posted a photo of her with Gino when she was wearing the same sweatshirt. When this sparked engagement rumors between her and Matt, Jasmine revealed the rings she had on were her wedding bands. Jasmine was spotted without the rings after her split with Gino in December 2023. Does this mean Jasmine and Gino have resolved their differences?
