Gino and Jasmine's Love Story
We first met Gino and Jasmine on the 5th season of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days. Their love story was dramatic, eventful, and unforgettable from the very start. So, let's look back at the couple's 90 Day Fiance journey from day one!
Engineer Gino was so excited to see his girlfriend, Jasmine, in person for the very first time. After going through a divorce, he met Jasmine online and they formed a very special bond.
After 8 months of long distance dating, they decided to meet! He packed all of this things — including his "little blue pills" — and got ready to travel from Michigan to Jasmine's home in Panama.
Gino's brother, Tony, and sister-in-law, Lauri, were concerned about the upcoming trip to Panama. They asked if Jasmine had ever seen Gino without his hat.
Spoiler alert: she had not.
Although Gino understood his family's hesitation, he still wanted to follow through and potentially propose to Jasmine before returning to the United States.
Jasmine liked to keep tabs on Gino since they lived so far apart. She often asked for reports to see what Gino was up to. She even stayed on video chat with him when he picked up food from a restaurant, just to see who he was speaking to.
Gino flew to Panama to meet Jasmine for the first time! They were both so excited and giddy at the sight of one another.
Jasmine took Gino to a nice hotel and let him get settled. Although Gino wasn't ready to take his hat off for Jasmine yet, she assured him, "Tonight everything is coming off."
Moments later, Jasmine asked for Gino's phone password so she could check if he was being a "good boy." Gino said Jasmine could be jealous and a bit controlling, but he hoped it would go away now that they were physically together.
But it didn't. At dinner, Jasmine went through her own phone in front of Gino to show him that she had nothing to hide. Then, she made him do the same.
Jasmine thought that Gino could use a wardrobe upgrade, so the couple went on a little shopping spree. They had a blast trying on clothes, but when the cashier rang everything up, Gino decided to ditch his new look. He had been out of work for a few months and wasn't comfortable making the $500+ purchase. This annoyed Jasmine.
The couple met up with Jasmine's friend, Leo. He brought up the subject of babies, which made Jasmine uncomfortable. Gino was prepared to have a child immediately with Jasmine, but she wasn't ready — and she was keeping a huge secret from him.
She was taking birth control pills, unbeknownst to Gino.
Jasmine felt triggered every time Gino mentioned something from his past that involved his ex. Their conversation about the paint colors that Gino and his ex chose for his home led to a blowout fight!
Luckily, the couple made up — and Jasmine figured it was time to reveal her big secret to Gino. She admitted to taking birth control pills and said that she didn't want to get pregnant the first time they met. Gino was upset and didn't like seeing that side of Jasmine, but he was also glad they were able to talk through their issues.
Jasmine's divorce was finalized and her friends threw her a divorce party to celebrate! The crew partied it up and then, in walked a special surprise for Jasmine: a stripper.
Jasmine's friends showed Gino a video of her and the stripper and he wasn't happy about it. She felt awful for making Gino feel that way and assured him it would never happen again.
Gino and Jasmine went on a vacation to a nearby island. Their destination was beautiful, but there was definitely trouble in paradise. Gino sent his ex explicit photos of Jasmine as an act of revenge, and his ex sent Jasmine screenshots of their conversation. Jasmine was absolutely devastated.
Gino's ex also sent Jasmine a post about his past, when he hired sugar babies for company. Jasmine felt that she didn't really know Gino anymore and that this wasn't the man who she fell in love with. This combined with the photos caused Jasmine to boil over. The couple had an explosive fight that sent them both to the brink.
After going on a walk to rehash what had gone down between them, Gino and Jasmine realized that their love for each other was stronger than anything else. They decided to work harder at their relationship and to build back trust.
Gino went ring shopping with hopes of proposing to Jasmine before his return to the United States!
Off to meet Jasmine's mother, Cecilia, and her little sister, Liz. Gino wanted to get Cecilia's blessing before he proposed, but their first meeting got off to a very rocky start. Cecilia was concerned about the couple's age gap, wondered why Gino never had children of his own, and worried about Jasmine uprooting her life to move to America. In the end, she saw how happy Jasmine was around Gino and she gave her blessing!
Gino proposed to Jasmine on a beautiful rainy day in the mountains. They were both thrilled to take the next step together.
It was time for Gino to return to the United states and Jasmine broke down. Emotions were high and there were a lot of tears. However, the couple chose to be positive and shifted their focus to their goal: living together in America.
At the 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days Season 5 Tell All, Gino and Jasmine talked about their intimacy issues as well as the ups and downs of their relationship. And of course, we were blessed with this iconic quote.
Next, the couple appeared on 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days Season 6. While Gino was packing up his hats to visit Panama again, Jasmine met up with her friend (and ex-boyfriend), Dane. She gave Dane the scoop on her relationship with Gino and revealed that they were moving into Dane's apartment building. Dane asked Jasmine if Gino would feel awkward living so close to his fiance's ex, but little did Dane know...Gino knew nothing about him.
Back in Michigan, Gino enjoyed dinner with his family. They all complimented his new style, but the conversation quickly moved to his relationship. Gino's family urged him to talk about a prenup when he returned to Panama. They were worried that his relationship was built on rocky foundation.
Reunited at last!
Shortly after Gino arrived, he and Jasmine got into another tiff. Jasmine wanted to cook a vegan meal for Gino, but Gino said they didn't have the proper tools to prep the food. Jasmine asked Gino to use a large knife and after a while, Gino gave up. This upset Jasmine and Gino left the room to get some space.
Gino decided to go to bed and Jasmine worried about what their marriage would look like.
Gino brought up the prenup conversation and Jasmine wasn't having it. She cursed him out and took off her engagement ring.
Later on, Gino tried to explain the prenup proposal to Jasmine — but of course, it backfired. Gino told Jasmine she'd have a protection clause, but she ripped up his documents and threw the scraps at him.
Then, Jasmine said she got along with her exes better than she did with Gino — and they were better in bed than Gino too. He called Jasmine the "worst sexual person in the world."
After chatting with a bartender about his problems, Gino realized that a prenup had a different connotation in Panamanian culture. So, Gino agreed to skip the prenup and Jasmine was relieved — even though she already decided to sign one if Gino pushed for it again. Point for Jasmine.
But when she asked Gino about drafting a will for her protection, he was taken aback.
Gino got the scoop on Jasmine's ex, Dane, from one of her friends. He thought Jasmine would be livid if the roles were reversed and he was still friends with one of his exes. He confronted her about it.
Jasmine assured him that she wasn't cheating and came clean about living in the same apartment as Dane. Gino was shocked.
Gino and Jasmine went to couple's therapy to sort through their most recent spats. They realized that they didn't know how to disagree without insulting each other or going for the jugular.
Jasmine's little sister, Liz, came to visit on her birthday. Gino and Jasmine put aside their differences to celebrate Liz and together, they had an evening full of laughs and great memories.
Gino surprised Jasmine with a promise ring. He promised to try harder, avoid arguments, and give her "more meat."
Things were going well for the couple ever since their therapy session. They booked a little getaway and brought along some sexy time accessories for added fun. They were determined to boost their intimacy on this trip...and it worked!
Jasmine confronted Gino's cousin, Dana, about a comment he left on social media in the past. He told her he was worried for Gino at the time, but didn't mean to be hurtful. Although she wasn't satisfied with Dana's apology, she told Gino that she would try to be positive about it. She also told Gino that she was scared of losing him if his family didn't approve of her.
Jasmine planned a self-care night for Gino. Then, she asked if she could stay in their current apartment until her visa was approved. Gino declined, said it was too expensive, and suggested they look for a new apartment. Jasmine was fuming and called Gino out for buying his exes expensive things in the past. Their disagreement turned into blowout fight.
In a fit of anger, Jasmine said she filmed a recent video with her ex and offered to show it to Gino. At that point, Gino was done with the relationship.
After the dust settled, Jasmine regretted everything and knew this fight wasn't worth losing the love of her life. She took the engagement ring Gino gave to her, dropped down to the floor, and proposed to him! Her apology was sincere and Gino accepted.
Gino was Jasmine's "Gringo" and Jasmine was Gino's "Latina" once again.
The pair appeared on the 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days Season 6 Tell All to discuss their rollercoaster relationship and dish on the other couples' drama.
Gino and Jasmine returned for the 10th season of 90 Day Fiance! Jasmine's visa was approved and she arrived in Michigan to live with Gino. Although they were both excited to continue their relationship in America, Jasmine was struggling with leaving her sons and everything she knew back in Panama.
Not long after Jasmine arrived, she and Gino worked on spicing up their love life. They agreed to try their best not to argue and enjoy their fresh start in Michigan.
Gino revealed that he quit his job to spend more time with Jasmine and help her settle into her new life in the states. Jasmine was scared that their financial situation would suffer and that she'd have a hard time bringing her sons to America in the future.
During a couple's massage, Jasmine revealed a secret of her own. She told Gino that she took the money he sent her for a wedding dress and spent it on butt implants. He couldn't believe it. Jasmine said if she knew Gino was going to quit his job back when she made the decision, she wouldn't have done it.
However, she left out that her ex, Dane, gave her the rest of the money she needed for the surgery.
Jasmine met Gino's family in person for the first time. They played bocce ball together and talked about future plans. Jasmine explained that she left her family to be with Gino, but she felt attacked by their questions and assumptions. She wasn't sure they'd ever accept her.
On the way home, Jasmine found a mysterious lip gloss on the floor of Gino's car. This discovery led to a major fight, tears, and Jasmine walking away in the rain.
They made up shortly afterward.
While Jasmine cleaned the house, she found some old items she wanted Gino to throw out. She found a Portuguese language program and wondered why Gino never learned Spanish for her. To top it all off, she found a napkin from Gino's 40th birthday party with his ex's initials on it.
Jasmine found out that Gino had a bachelor party right before she arrived in the states. She was tired of the lies and omissions, but Gino thought she was overreacting. Jasmine gave her ring back to Gino yet again.
The pair made up and decided to get out of town. They traveled to Miami, which reminded Jasmine of home. The pre-wedding vacation was very healing for them. Jasmine even agreed to give Gino's family one more chance following her negative experience meeting them.
Later on, they had an emotional conversation and Jasmine revealed her fears about having more children. Gino understood and made sure that Jasmine felt supported, no matter what they ended up doing.
Gino proposed to Jasmine with a real diamond this time — and he even asked her in Spanish! Of course, Jasmine accepted. They were more excited than ever to get married.
Gino and Jasmine talked about the pain they caused each other in the past, some involving their exes. They apologized and agreed to leave all of that behind so they could move forward as a couple. In order to do that, Jasmine kindly ended her friendship with her ex, Dane.
Jasmine said yes to this gorgeous dress!
Jasmine was nervous to meet with Gino's family again, but everything went better than she could've imagined! Jasmine apologized to Gino for her past behavior in front of his family and his family apologized for not being open minded when they met her. It was such a touching moment and Jasmine finally felt accepted.
Congratulations! Gino and Jasmine tied the knot in front of family and friends. Jasmine's loved ones in Panama got to witness their vows via video chat.
At the 90 Day Fiance Season 10 Tell All, the couples discussed Gino's bachelor party. After seeing how the evening went down, a livid Jasmine stormed off.
The couple worked on their differences and appeared on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After Season 8. They went camping together and amidst the funny moments — like struggling to pitch a tent — they were able to start an important conversation about their future and current living situation.
Gino and Jasmine received some bad news. Because of a paperwork oversight, it would take much longer to bring Jasmine's sons to America to live with them. Jasmine was devastated and begged Gino to pay their lawyer to help. However, Gino said he couldn't afford the lawyers fees and wanted to handle it himself.
Jasmine decided to send her boys a care package to let them know she was thinking of them. Gino's family member, Michelle, came to help. Jasmine confided in Michelle about everything going on and Michelle supported her. Jasmine considered leaving the United States to return to Panama.
Gino and Jasmine made a compromise. They agreed that Gino would handle all the paperwork if he had a lawyer check it all before submission. This was a very important breakthrough for them.
Jasmine kept a secret from Gino for a while and finally came clean. She revealed that she wasn't ready to have a baby with Gino yet — and she wasn't sure if she wanted to have one at all. Gino was shocked and upset by her admission. Ultimately, he understood and they tabled the baby conversation for another time.
Jasmine wanted to compete in a beauty pageant, but Gino said he wasn't sure and would have to find a way to pay for it. Jasmine was fed up and felt that Gino made all of the decisions in the relationship. She started walking home by herself (leaving the shoes Gino bought her behind).
At a family picnic, Gino and Jasmine discussed their recent frustrations. Then, Gino brought up his intimacy issues and sex life with Jasmine, making the whole table feel a bit awkward. See cousin Dana's reaction above.
After getting some advice from his family, Gino decided to pay for Jasmine's pageant! It was something for Jasmine to focus on and set goals for, which meant the world to her.
Although Jasmine didn't win first prize, she was grateful for the experience.
After the pageant, Gino revealed that he didn't want to finish the paperwork for Jasmine's children until their relationship was repaired. Jasmine was furious and got a separate hotel room for the night.
At the 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After Season 8 Tell All, Gino and Jasmine discussed their relationship highs and lows with the other couples. They even participated in a lie detector segment, which had everyone their toes.
Watch Gino and Jasmine's journey continue on 90 Day: The Last Resort, premiering December 2 at 8/7c!
