Chantel Everett is a 32-year-old American model and reality tv star on the TLC show "The Family Chantel", which was the first spinoff series of the 90 Day Fiance conceived to focus on her marriage to 31-year-old Pedro Jimeno. Chantel Everett and Pedro Jimeno first appeared on the 90 Day Fiancé fourth season and are one of the most popular couples on the show.
Chantel and Pedro were the major focus of the show "The Family Chantel." Chantel and Pedro have always faced one relationship issue or another but her parents Karen and Thomas Everett tried to shield the family from the nonstop drama, which often had the opposite effect. While the couple had gone through some high highs and low lows, fans of the show have watched it all unfold. But what does Chantel's family think about her marriage and subsequent divorce from Pedro?
How Did Chantel And Pedro's Romance Begin?
Pedro and Chantel's love story began on a romantic trip to the Dominican Republic, where they got secretly engaged. After their engagement, they moved to Atlanta, Georgia, Chantel's hometown, and documented their journey on the hit reality show, "90 Day Fiance."
During this time, they awaited Pedro's K-1 Visa to the United States, even though Chantel had lied to her family that Pedro was on a student visa. They both went ahead and got married in a small romantic ceremony in Georgia. Pedro and Chantel later threw a larger celebration with Pedro's family in the Dominican Republic.
Since then, the couple's journey has been documented on the hit series "90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?" And later their own spinoff series, "The Family Chantel." The show, followed everything about both Chantel's and Pedro's families as they navigated the ups and downs of married life.
Their marriage, in the beginning, looked promising but due to their nonstop disagreements, allegations, trust issues and fights against one another, Pedro and Chantel seemed to have had enough of themselves and on the 27th of April 2022, Pedro and Chantel separated and lived separately. Pedro was the one who wanted the separation and was the first to move out.
"In Touch Weekly" followed up with the couple and reported in May 2022, that Pedro and Chantel purchased their first home in Lawrenceville, Georgia, which was about 34 miles outside of Atlanta, five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and a neatly groomed yard are included in the 2,627 square foot house. Which seemed to have been in an effort to fix their relationship.
The drama was far from finished when Pedro filed for divorce from Chantel On May 27th, 2022, claiming that their marriage was "irretrievably broken" and asking that all of their assets be divided equally between them.
Chantel Everett was at that time still very much in love with Pedro and tried so hard to fix their relationship, but it proved futile, in response, she decided to go ahead to file her own divorce petition which brought an end to their marriage.

As long as you have breath in your bodies, don't ever allow anyone to mistreat or run rough shot over your children!!! God bless", this was obviously referring to Pedro.
