90 Day Fiancé Star Jasmine Pineda Opens Up About Her Bisexuality and Crush on a Co-Star

90 Day Fiancé star Jasmine Pineda is admitting to having feelings for a fellow cast member amidst rumors of her split with Gino Palazzolo. Jasmine, a 36-year-old former teacher from Panama, tied the knot with 53-year-old Gino from Michigan in June 2023. Their tumultuous relationship has made them stand out on the show's spin-offs. Jasmine was portrayed as a strong-willed individual who often clashed with Gino and was accused of manipulating him for money. However, off-camera, Jasmine reveals a different side of herself.

During the Tell All segment, Jasmine expressed her affection for fellow 90 Day Fiancé star Nikki Exotika by stating, “I would carry [Nikki’s] baby. I like her.” When host Shaun Robinson asked if any of the cast members would consider having a child with someone other than their partners, Nikki immediately pointed at Jasmine. Surprising everyone, Jasmine confessed, “I mean, I have had girlfriends in the past so I get attracted to women as well as men,” showcasing a new aspect of her personality.

Jasmine surprised everyone by admitting, “I’ve always had a crush on Nikki.” Gino was taken aback by her candid confession and simply responded, “Interesting.” Shaun chimed in with, “Well, that’s some breaking news right there.” Nikki blushed at Jasmine's words, but Jasmine didn't stop there. She had another shocking revelation that was sure to leave everyone on set stunned. In November 2023, Jasmine publicly declared Nikki as her crush and even thanked her for promoting her Fanbasis account, saying, “I’ll marry you in a heartbeat.”

Jasmine casually mentioned that if she were Nikki's partner, she would be very affectionate towards her.

The room filled with audible gasps in response to Jasmine's statement. Nikki, on the other hand, couldn't help but smile and fan herself. The two had only met in person for the first time during the reunion filming for 90 Day The Melanated Way. In October 2023, Jasmine had shared photos of their time together in New York, referring to Nikki as her "new friend." It is possible that they filmed the Tell All for season 10 of 90 Day Fiancé during that time, leaving viewers shocked at their unexpected friendship.

Jasmine may have a bad reputation in the franchise for her on-screen outbursts and poor treatment of Gino, but that doesn’t mean that she’s not friendly with her co-stars.

Jasmine has often praised her fellow cast members on social media. She is particularly close friends with Mike Berk, sparking rumors about a possible relationship between them. However, her bond with Nikki is different. Jasmine reached out to Nikki after her split with Justin to offer her support. It seems that 90 Day Fiancé star Jasmine is a true friend for life with Nikki.

90 Day Fiancé airs Sundays at 8 p.m. EST on TLC.
