Chantel Jimeno, née Everett, from The Family Chantel has built a successful influencer career for herself and has been enjoying her life during the past year. Chantel has kept busy in the hiatus between seasons 2 and 3 of the hit 90 Day Fiancé spin-off show. The Atlanta-based beauty has been living her best life with her friends, though The Family Chantel star has not been immune to criticism.

Chantel first entered the reality TV scene on 90 Day Fiancé. The bad blood between her dramatic family and her Dominican Republic native partner Pedro Jimeno led to memorable drama for audiences. While Chantel is regarded as one of the great physical beauties in the franchise, she has been hounded by rumors of plastic surgery that she has steadily denied. Meanwhile, Chantel’s long-standing feud with her sister-in-law, Nicole Jimeno, will reach new heights in The Family Chantel season 3.

While many people experienced the limitations of the pandemic over the past year, Chantel hasn’t held back when it comes to traveling. Chantel earned some criticism from her followers for having multiple tropical girls’ trips with her close friends over the past year that saw the ladies leaving the country for poolside and beach escapades. Chantel’s Instagram, @chantel_j_features her travels, as well as modeling shoots and paid endorsements. Chantel also celebrated a major milestone at the beginning of the year, as she rang in three decades of life with a week of festivities with both her friends and her family. Meanwhile, Chantel will soon become an aunt since her brother Royal and his wife Angenette are expecting a baby boy. When it comes to work, it is unclear if Chantel is currently a nurse, though she has given indications that she might be.

Though Chantel opts to travel with her friends and doesn’t share many photos with her husband, her marriage to Pedro appears to be going well. The couple is known to comment flirty things to each other online, and Chantel frequently accompanies her fitness-fanatic husband to the gym. However, the couple will be rocked with drama in season 3. Previews for The Family Chantel season 3 show Nicole accusing Pedro of cheating on Chantel with her friend, Coraima. Meanwhile, Chantel's nightmares might come true if Lidia and Nicole make the move to the United States to be closer to Pedro.

Though Chantel is undeniably the star of The Family Chantel, she appears to be taking a backseat for some of the season 3 plotlines. Pedro will be at the center of drama with Nicole and Alejandro, and he will also be grilling his mother Lidia about his father. Chantel’s big storyline appears to be purchasing a home, though she will also likely deal with the fallout from Nicole. Chantel will be back to air more drama when The Family Chantel season 3 premieres on Monday, October 11.
