Gino Palazzolo “looks forward to setting the record straight” with his estranged wife, Jasmine Pineda, “once his NDA expires” after she accused him of pocketing her paychecks that the couple received for their appearances on the 90 Day Fiancé franchise.
Gino, 56, vowed to prove “with receipts, details and explanation” in an exclusive statement provided to In Touch on Tuesday, March 25. “Also, she claims I didn’t send any of my own [money] in regards to money I sent to her in Panama to help pay her bills, but she didn’t start making money in Cameos until January 2022.”
Cameo is a website where fans can request personalized video messages from their favorite celebrities. As of publication, Jasmine, 38, charges $55+ per recorded message.
The 90 Day Fiancé alum said that he sent a “large amount” of his own money to Jasmine almost every month of 2022 due to her “low Cameo income [for] several months.”
“I also supported in 2023. Will provide receipts and details. Keep in mind our first show didn’t start airing until December of 2021 and finished around April of 2022 in regards to any kind of cameo income she made,” he alleged. “I was transferring money to her by April of 2020. She arrived in Michigan in March of 2023.”
The drama began hours earlier when Jasmine made multiple bombshell accusations against Gino, including allegations that he kept her paychecks for her appearances on the franchise.
“You know my only source of income to send back home for my children was Cameos. You were getting paid twice as much for my part of the job and you perfectly know you were not sharing a dime with me,” she alleged in a lengthy Instagram Story posted on Monday, March 24. “Cause: ‘Jasmine, if you love me, let me handle all of it right?’ Or what about the: ‘I’m not applying for your green card or your children’s visa if you don’t do as I say.’”
Jasmine claimed that the funds Gino allegedly provided for her living expenses in Panama after she lost her job — including rent and her wedding dress — were actually her own earnings from creating Cameo videos. “I needed an American bank account while being in Panama to get the Cameo money. Gino offered to let me use his,” she explained.
Gino and Jasmine’s public feud came one day after they recommitted to their marriage during the season 2 finale of 90 Day: The Last Resort, which aired on Monday, March 24. During the series, fans watched as Gino agreed to an open marriage with Jasmine, as he felt it would be the only way to save their relationship.
Things took a dramatic turn after filming the couples’ therapy spinoff when Jasmine confirmed on February 8 that she was expecting her third child. She revealed that the father was her boyfriend, Matthew Branistareanu, whom she had introduced to Gino and her costars during the show. Gino reacted to his wife’s pregnancy in a teaser for the dramatic season 2 tell-all, telling host Shaun Robinson that it was “heartbreaking.”
The 90 Day: The Last Resort tell-all begins next Monday, March 31, at 8 p.m. on TLC.
