It was an emotional night for 90 Day Fiancé stars Jasmine Pineda and Matt Branis. They welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Matilda.
“Oh my gosh,” Jasmine said through tears as she held her newborn for the first time. “Now, just seeing my baby, my daughter, on my chest. Thank you, honey.”
The proud mom couldn’t stop gushing over her daughter’s beauty. “I imagined her in so many different ways, but none of them can even get close to how perfect and beautiful she actually is,” she said. “I feel like this is how an angel would look.”
90 Day Fiancé: The Name With a Hidden Meaning
In the episode, Jasmine revealed the sweet (and funny) origin behind Matilda’s name. “I used to call Matt ‘Matilde’ as a joke,” she said with a smile. “In Matilde, you can see the name Matt, it’s Matt and Mati because that’s how we call each other.”
She added that the birth was “very painful,” but worth “every second” to meet her “beautiful angel.”
“Giving birth to my daughter and having Matt there made me trust him like never before,” Jasmine said. “When I was the most vulnerable, he was there for me unconditionally. After this, I know I can trust him with anything.”
90 Day Fiancé: Fans Melted: Then Turned Critical
Many viewers praised the couple and called the birth “beautiful.” However, some quickly turned the talk to Jasmine’s family history.
One fan commented, “Where are your other kids? A mother is a mother of all her children.” Another wrote, “Why do you never mention your other babies? It looks like they don’t exist.”
Others were more blunt. “I feel sorry for the baby,” one person said, while another joked, “She came out looking just like Matt.”
Many longtime fans of the show wonder why Jasmine is mostly silent about her older children in Panama. It’s a topic that’s followed her across multiple 90 Day Fiancé seasons, and one that continues to spark debate.
