’90 Day Fiancé’: Are Jasmine Pineda & Matt Branistareanu Engaged?

Jasmine Pineda and Matt Branistareanu: Soulmates raising a baby—but not officially engaged (yet) on “90 Day Fiancé”!


In the world of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, romance often comes with red flags, open-marriages, and complications—and the relationship between Jasmine Pineda and Matt Branistareanu is no exception. Fans have been wondering: are they engaged? The short answer: no, at least not yet—but there are serious commitment signals. Let’s unpack exactly where they stand.


🌟 What we do know

  • Jasmine and Matt publicly confirmed they were expecting a baby together, and their daughter later arrived—cementing their partnership in a major way. Swooon+3People.com+3People.com+3

  • Matt surprised Jasmine on camera by proposing in the Season 9 finale: though he used “just a string” instead of a formal ring, the gesture was charged. Swooon

  • Jasmine is still legally married to her previous partner, Gino Palazzolo, which complicates any immediate engagement or wedding plans. People.com+1

  • Regardless of legalities, their social-media presence shows them living together, parenting together, and publicly supporting each other’s major life steps. instagram.com+1


🤔 Why not engaged—at least publicly

  • When Matt proposed, Jasmine responded that she didn’t yet have a “yes” or “no.” She said she wants it to be Matt if she ever marries again—but she isn’t ready to commit fully yet. Swooon

  • Legal separation from Gino isn’t settled, which means any formal engagement might be delayed for personal or practical reasons.

  • Matt’s own hesitation: reports suggest he’s still working through meeting family approval, dealing with cultural/family expectations, and figuring out how this relationship fits into his life. Cinemablend


❤️ Where the relationship is

  • Deep commitment: having a child together is a big step—they’ve shown they’re in it for the long haul even without a formal “fiancé” label.

  • Public unity: Matt supported Jasmine through her health issue (post-partum alopecia) by shaving his head in solidarity—a sign many fans interpret as symbolic of “we’re in this together.” Cinemablend

  • Shared goals: They appear to be building a life together (moving, raising a family) rather than rushing into a ceremony or ring for the sake of tradition.


🔮 What’s next?

  • Engagement could still happen: Matt’s proposal indicates he wants the next step when the timing is right.

  • Legal matters must be resolved: Jasmine’s marriage to Gino may need official closure before a big “engaged” announcement.

  • Tell-All exposure: Reality shows like this often save big announcements for reunion specials or Tell-All episodes—so the public might get an official announcement soon.

  • Building foundation first: Given recent stress (baby, health issues, blended families) they may want to solidify life before adding the “E” word (engagement) sticker.


✅ Bottom line

Jasmine Pineda and Matt Branistareanu are very much together, deeply committed, and parenting a child—but as of now:

  • They are not officially engaged.

  • They are practically partners in life, love, and parenting.

  • Future engagement remains possible when the timing, legal status, and personal readiness align.

For fans of the show—and of the couple—they don’t need a ring to see that this is more than a fling. But when the engagement happens, expect it to make big news.
