Jasmine Pineda debuted on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days in 2021. At the time, fans mostly noticed her temper, and the ups and downs with Gino Palazzolo. Of course, fans also noted her love for cosmetic surgery.
Now in 2025, Jasmine seems more than just another reality star. Actually she’s become one of the most talked-about people in the TLC franchise. Is she giving Angela Deem competition as the Queen Bee of TLC?
Plenty of Social Media Engagement
On Instagram, Jasmine garnered close to half a million followers. In fact, her three most recent pinned posts, including one uploaded only a day ago, pulled in between 9K, 14K and over 1,200 comments.
Obviously, so much interaction puts Jasmine ahead of many of her co-stars. Everyone knows that engagement matters because it generates income and also reveals that people react and debate.
Is Jasmine popular, or did she get so much interaction because of her polarizing nature? Controversy often fuels 90 Day Fiancé storylines, and Jasmine certainly delivers. After marrying Gino, their marriage quickly cracked under the pressure.
By the time they appeared on 90 Day: The Last Resort, Jasmine shocked everyone by revealing her pregnancy with actor Matt Branis’s child. Later, she gave birth to their daughter Matilda in March.
The Threesome
Since then, Jasmine shared updates about her life with Matt Branistareanu, who seems to co-parent their child. That started after she asked Gino to accept an open marriage. Meanwhile, her legal ties to him remain unresolved.
At the same time, Jasmine Pineda claimed she wanted to return to Panama to be closer to her two sons she left behind. Therefore, her story stays complex and which keeps fans coming back for more.
The Angela Deem Comparison
For years, Angela held the crown as the queen of the TLC franchise. With nearly a million followers, she still commands a bigger platform. However, Angela’s engagement seems, on average, way less.
Meanwhile, Jasmine’s posts feel lively and current. Fans either love Jasmine or love to hate her. Actually, that’s what Angela used to be like before she became yesterday’s news.
Back in 2023, we wrote about whether Jasmine could become the next Larissa Lima because of her cosmetic procedures. At the time, the comparison seemed fair since both women loved glamour and controversy.
Yet in 2025, Jasmine looks different. She no longer feels like a copy of Larissa. Instead, she somehow built her own brand of drama and influence.
The New Queen
So, did Jasmine Pineda take over as the queen of 90 Day Fiancé? Possibly, as the numbers certainly show a lot of engagement. She drives fresh drama, and she keeps her audience invested with every new update. One thing that we know about her, is that she seems impossible to ignore.
