Chantel Jimeno, née Everett, has made a name for herself on The Family Chantel after rising to prominence on 90 Day Fiancé, where she captivated fans with her dating drama. The 29-year-old reality star received her own series following the intense scrutiny she endured from her family for getting engaged to Pedro Jimeno. But beyond her dramatic personal life, fans are curious to know just how much the star is worth.
Chantel and Pedro's relationship was a focal point of 90 Day Fiancé. Her parents, Karen and Thomas, were extremely vocal about their suspicions surrounding Pedro. Money was at the center of many arguments, as the overprotective parents accused Pedro of using their daughter to come to America, where they found him guilty of "harvesting" the American dollar. They were displeased with the Dominican Republic native joining Chantel in the States while he worked to send money to his family back home. However, the couple, who are now married, seem to be doing well for themselves if Chantel's success is any indication.
The Atlanta native earns money through both her reality television appearances and social media endorsements. The beauty has become an influencer on Instagram, with her account nearing 700K followers. Though the exact net worth of the social media personality has not been disclosed, Chantel has posted advertisements for a number of brands. Her Instagram page shows endorsements for many different lifestyle products. Chantel has worked with various brands, including Burst Oral Care, Teami, Impressions Vanity, and Bliss Rejuvenation. The glamorous nursing graduate has also endorsed hand sanitizers, work scrubs, a Derma Roller, flooring companies, electric toothbrushes, and detox teas on her profile.

Chantel's Instagram bio contains her personal codes for Everly Rings, Teami Blends, Jaanuu, Muddy Body, and GarmaGuard. She frequently hosts giveaways for her followers on her page. In addition to her many promotional posts and endorsements, Chantel also has many photos of herself promoting apparel brands and swimwear lines. She lists herself as an ambassador for some of the companies, including Teami, while she appears to endorse other companies with paid partnerships. According to USA Today, Instagram influencers with one million followers and above can make upwards of $10,000 per sponsored post. Chantel is slightly below that threshold, but she still stands to make around $7,000 for each product she promotes. However, Chantel's Instagram hustle is only one part of her income, as she also has paychecks for her reality television appearances across two shows.
A Cheat Sheet report deduced that 90 Day Fiancé stars receive roughly $1,000 per episode for an estimated $15,000 for an entire season, plus an additional $2,500 for the tell-all. Chantel and Pedro appeared in season 4 of the hit series, as well as both seasons of their spin-off The Family Chantel. Therefore, it seems reasonable that Chantel could have earned in the ballpark of $50,000 for her reality television appearances. Additionally, since there is a certain income requirement needed to sponsor someone for a K-1 visa, Chantel would have had to prove a degree of financial stability prior to 90 Day Fiancé. Lastly, Chantel completed her university education and graduated from nursing school. Therefore, she has the qualifications to look into a more traditional line of work should the reality series and endorsements ever dry out.
Chantel has made a name for herself on her Instagram, where she even has her own hashtags – #TheFamilyChantel and #Chantelligence. Fans of the influencer and reality television star can also keep up with her life by watching The Family Chantel on TLC. The show chronicles two seasons of family drama between Chantel, Pedro, and the entire extended clan.
