Social media is abuzz after Jasmine Pineda, a prominent figure from the reality show ’90 Day Fiancé,’ posted old photos on Facebook, revealing a previously unknown chapter of her life. The images, which show a younger Jasmine with blonde hair and braces, feature a man fans and news outlets believe to be her first husband.
The unearthed photographs, brought to light by blogger MerryPants, capture Jasmine in her early 20s alongside an older man. Before her widely publicized marriage to Gino Palazzolo in 2023, Jasmine was wed to this individual, who is reportedly a doctor and a lawyer.
While his name had never been publicly disclosed until now, Jasmine has previously shared details about this relationship on her Instagram Stories. She claimed he made her sign a prenup that left her «with nothing» and alleged that he was both unfaithful and abusive. The couple had two sons, Juance and JC.
What Could These Photos Mean for Jasmine’s TV Comeback?
The timing of these photo revelations and the insights into her first marriage are particularly significant for Jasmine. Despite marrying Gino Palazzolo in 2023, their relationship has been tumultuous, and they have since separated. However, the couple is set to return to screens in the ninth season of ’90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?’, slated to air in July 2025.
Fans are now speculating whether this new information and the story of Jasmine’s first husband could become a central storyline for the upcoming season. There’s buzz that Gino Palazzolo, often curious about Jasmine’s past, might attempt to contact this man for more details, adding another layer of drama to their already complex dynamic.
Many viewers believed Jasmine and Gino’s story had concluded after their split was featured on ’90 Day: The Last Resort.’ However, their return for ‘Happily Ever After?’ suggests that TLC producers are keen on delivering fresh surprises. The big question remains: will Jasmine’s mysterious first husband make an appearance, or will his past simply serve as a talking point to intensify the ongoing narrative between Jasmine and Gino?
Meanwhile, Jasmine has moved on, now residing in Miami with Matt Branis and his daughter, though she maintains that Matt is just a friend. These newly surfaced old photos undoubtedly add more intrigue to the enigmatic persona of Jasmine Pineda.
