Chantel Jimeno, née Everett, has been at the center of two seasons of family drama on The Family Chantel. So, what is the 29-year-old reality star up to these days, following The Family Chantel season 2?
The American beauty first entered the spotlight on 90 Day Fiancé, after Pedro Jimeno from the Dominican Republic obtained his K-1 visa to join her in the United States. Chantel's parents Karen and Thomas put Pedro under intense scrutiny. After repeatedly questioning his intentions on the reality dating series, the family got a spin-off show. The Family Chantel season 1 dealt with more of the fallout from Karen and Thomas's treatment of Pedro. However, the tables turned during the second season, when Chantel's brother Royal had his relationship with his wife Angenette analyzed and investigated.
The intrusion of Thomas and Karen certainly put a strain on both Chantel's and Royal's relationships. However, it appears as though both siblings have managed to keep their marriages intact in spite of the family drama. Fans last saw Chantel on television for the final episode of The Family Chantel season 2, which aired on December 14. Frictions reached a high when Chantel and her family seemingly upstaged Angenette at her own wedding. Nonetheless, the event managed to be mostly drama-free, even if both families weren't about to spend the next holidays together. When it comes to Chantel's relationship with Pedro, the couple remains happily married and they currently reside in Georgia. You can see a cute snap Chantel shared of them below:
With her relationship sorted out, Chantel has been able to focus on building a career for herself. Since the conclusion of season 2, Chantel had been continuing to rise as an Instagram influencer. She has found success for herself apart from reality television, through advertising for or partnering with numerous brands. She currently has nearly 700K followers, making her one of the most popular 90 Day Fiancé alumni. According to Social Blade, the influencer has gained 15,630 followers in the past 30 days, with an average of 551 new followers a day. If Chantel's popularity continues to rise, she could see herself continuing to make big money with her platform. She could even join the likes of Paola Mayfield by cultivating over a million followers.
The reality star has also been busy debunking plastic surgery rumors. Though Chantel has admitted to Botox injections, she denies having breast augmentation surgery. Throwback photos that Chantel shared throughout the years confirmed that she has always been naturally busty. When it comes to speculating about other aspects of Chantel's life, fans of the hit series will have to stay tuned to see if The Family Chantel season 3 gets the green light from TLC.
