90 Day Fiance star Jasmine Pineda is once again at the center of controversy, this time facing harsh backlash from fans who accuse her of grifting by using her daughter, Matilda, in a money-making scheme.
The Panamanian reality TV personality recently reconciled with her partner, Matt Branis, after a publicized rough patch. Despite hinting at wedding plans and adopting Romanian cultural traditions to fit her fiancé’s expectations, Pineda’s latest move has overshadowed her personal milestones.
In a new Instagram story, Pineda revealed that she intends to sell Matilda’s paintings, describing the toddler’s hobby as a “limited collection” for fans to purchase. While she praised her daughter’s creativity, critics saw the announcement as yet another attempt to monetize her family life.
Fans quickly voiced their disapproval across social media platforms. One Reddit user lamented, “Imagine 17 years from now when Matilda asks, ‘Mom, did you keep any of the artwork I made for you?’” Others accused Pineda of exploiting her child, with one comment bluntly stating, “Jasmine will do anything except getting a job like most folks.”
This is not the first time Pineda has been accused of leveraging her fame for financial gain. She previously asked followers to contribute supplies for her new home, sparking similar outrage. Now, critics argue that selling her daughter’s artwork crosses a line, framing it as a cynical ploy to sustain her extravagant lifestyle.
Despite the backlash, Pineda insists that fans themselves requested the opportunity to buy Matilda’s paintings. Whether this latest venture succeeds or collapses under public scrutiny, it has undeniably reignited debate over the blurred boundaries between reality TV stardom, family privacy, and financial exploitation.
