Jasmine Pineda opens up about being body-shamed by some 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days viewers after which she felt compelled to share unfiltered photos of her stretch marks and cellulite on Instagram. Jasmine, who’s dating Gino Palazzolo, was called out upon her debut on the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off for her jealousy and anger issues. To some, Jasmine comes across as a gold digger, getting married to Gino for money. It doesn’t help that Gino confessed to paying for Jasmine’s cosmetic treatments, lips, hair, teeth, and eyebrows.
Panama City resident Jasmine is confident in many ways, and it shows via her Instagram posts in which she deals with criticism by cracking jokes and sharing memes. She’s revealed she never really made Gino pay for any plastic surgery. In fact, the only surgery Jasmine has ever had is for her breast implants, which she paid for with her teaching earnings in 2016. According to Jasmine, she got the implants because they were something she couldn’t achieve by working out. Recently, Jasmine also addressed questions about her nose, which she shared looks the way it does because of her biracial background.
Jasmine’s newest Instagram post came as a shock to most of her supporters. “Why body shaming? Society has forced us to believe in stupid and unrealistic beauty standards. Filters, photoshop, etc because you’re too fit, too fat, too tall, too old, too small…,” Jasmine wrote in the caption for photos of her proudly showing off her stretch marks and cellulite as she revealed her struggles with self-loathing and learning to love her body just as it is right now. Moreover, Jasmine confessed that she’s “extremely insecure” but has learned to love her body “just the way it is and accept it’s perfect with all the imperfections.”
Jasmine declared that 90 Day Fiancé viewers shouldn’t stop wearing a bikini or an outfit just because of insecurities. “Remember that sometimes even the model from the picture doesn’t look like the model from the picture,” she reminded her followers. Jasmine made it clear she thinks women are amazing because they come “in all different shapes, colors and personalities and that’s freaking awesome!”
In a separate story, Jasmine addressed the people calling her insecure by saying that she fights against feeling it day by day and sometimes ends up hating who she is. “I wish my experiences in life were not as bad specifically during my childhood that was went [sic] my mental health was really messed up,” Jasmine, shared. She disclosed that all of these remarks about her are made by women, but Jasmine has learned how to not let the opinions of others define who she is. As her well-wishers continue watching her on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days and perhaps more spin-offs in the future, Jasmine says she’ll keep on improving herself and looking for the good in people despite what anyone says. She could easily become a role model to TLC viewers going forward.
90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days airs Sundays at 8 p.m. EST on TLC.
