Jasmine Pineda - For The Better

90 Day Fiance: Jasmine Pineda

Many fans were alarmed by Jasmine’s extreme jealousy at first, but over time her boyfriend Gino Palazzolo made it impossible to sympathize with him. Sending Jasmine’s nudes to his ex-sugar baby was a major violation of her trust and viewers were shocked. Jasmine was furious at him but it was absolutely justified, and she expertly roasted Gino and continues to throw out iconic one-liners. It’s clear that now Jasmine has won over viewers who prefer her to Gino.

Caleb Greenwood - For The Better

Caleb struck many fans as an f-boy type and thought his new age beliefs were weird and pretentious. They had assumed he was judging Alina because of her disability and was going to treat her poorly because of it. But it turns out Alina isn’t a very good person. She unfairly pressured Caleb for sex and wanted to define their relationship prematurely, and it also turns out she has a racist streak. Caleb was surprisingly level-headed and upfront with Alina, and it made him much more likable of the two.

Mahogany Roca - For The Better

Considering most viewers originally thought Mahogany was probably a Nigerian man scamming Ben Rathbun, fans’ opinion of her could only improve. Though Mahogany has lied to Ben, she’s also done a good job calling him out on his problematic behavior and attitudes. Mahogany comes across as pretty reasonable compared to Ben, which is impressive given her young age. Though Mahogany isn’t perfect by any means, but she has definitely changed fans’ minds about her.

Mike Berk - For The Worse

Mike started out as kind of an underdog character this season. It seemed like Ximena was using him but wasn’t actually interested in Mike romantically. However it turns out there may have been more to the story. Mike has a seriously racist and intolerant side that has shocked fans. Ximena also alleges that Mike was physically abusive with her and that he was a bad partner all around. It’s hard to feel sorry for Mike and he’s become a very disliked cast member this season

Gino Palazzolo - For The Worse

Initially, fans saw Gino as weird but harmless. His strange giggle and affinity for hats were funny, and he seemed like the (slightly) more normal one between him and Jasmine. But things have definitely changed. Gino sending Jasmine’s nude photos to his ex was an unforgivable offense, and he’s not seen as harmless anymore. Fans are hoping Jasmine dumps him quick, although they wouldn’t mind having her roast him a few more times first.

All of these cast members saw a shift in the way 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days viewers saw them, and it wasn’t always for the better. Though some of them gained sympathy and popularity, others had their reputations tarnished in a way they’ll never recover from.
