After Jasmine Gets Deported, Gino Will Be the Legal Father of Matilda, Not Matt

Things just took a jaw-dropping turn in the Jasmine and Gino saga!

According to recent revelations, if Jasmine Pineda is deported from the U.S., her husband Gino Palazzolo would automatically become the legal father of her daughter, Matilda — not her biological dad, Matt.

In an emotional confession, Jasmine opened up about the terrifying possibility, saying:

“If I were ever deported, the law would recognize Gino as the legal parent with custody rights over Matilda. It means that neither Matt nor I would have the power to make decisions for her or keep her with us. It keeps me up at night — not because of anger, but because of how deeply I love my daughter and how helpless that situation would make me feel.”

Under U.S. immigration and family law, since Jasmine and Gino are still legally married, Gino would be recognized as the custodial parent if Jasmine were removed from the country — even though he’s not Matilda’s biological father.

Sources close to Matt reveal he was devastated upon learning the news, saying he felt “completely blindsided” and “heartbroken” knowing he could lose all rights to his daughter if Jasmine’s deportation goes through. 💔
