TLC's 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? stars Chantel Everett and Pedro Jimeno now have their own spinoff, The Family Chantel. A new teaser for the upcoming series shows fans the dramatic aftermath of Pedro's betrayal of Chantel's trust when he was recorded dirty dancing with a family friend, Coraima.
Pedro and Chantel have had a roller-coaster relationship from the beginning when fans first met them on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiancé. A TLC reality TV show that follows couples during the 90-day K-1 visa process, during which time they can get married to their partner, a U.S. citizen, or move back to their home country. Pedro, who is originally from the Dominican Republic, and Chantel's families have always been at odds with the blatant disapproval of their marriage. Most recently, on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, their relationship nearly hit a breaking point when Pedro left Atlanta to go back to visit the Dominican Republic without his wife and without a plane ticket home, where he ended up getting drunk and dirty dancing with his sister's friend Coraima. Now, fans will get to see the fallout from Pedro's breach of trust.
In a new teaser for The Family Chantel, released by TLC, Chantel and Pedro return to the Dominic Republic, where the scandal took place, in an attempt to reunite their families. As longtime viewers know, that's no easy feat with their two opinionated families. There are several blow-out arguments in the sneak peek, including one between Chantel and Coraima. When Pedro and Chantel meet up with Coraima and Pedro's sister, Nicole, tensions boil over and Chantel ends up throwing water in Coraima's face. Her voiceover says in the clip, "I still have visions of Pedro slinging that girl all over the dance floor."
Based on the clip, Chantel and Coraima's fight is just one of the many over-the-top arguments expected in this upcoming new series. The new show will follow the couple and their in-laws: Chantel's parents, Karen and Thomas, Pedro's mother, Lidia, and the couple's siblings. Chantel's mom, Lidia, says in the clip, "Marriage isn't something you pull on and off like pants," referring to Pedro's recent lapse of judgment. The preview then shows Pedro in an immigration lawyer's office, gaining insight about how to move his mom and sister to the United States, permanently. Chantel is (obviously) not OK with this, considering Pedro wants his confrontational mom to live with them in their home in Atlanta, and Pedro's sister was the one who showed Chantel the recording of him dancing with Corima to hurt Chantel. In the famous words of Chantel's mother, Karen, "Things are about to get a lot more stupider."
The show will focus on family members' drama as well, such as the relationship issues between Chantel's sister, Winter, and her boyfriend. These new plot lines will likely take a backseat to the explosive fights between the Everetts and the Jimenos. While the Jimenos seem keen on splitting Chantel and Pedro up, the Everetts seem to hope they can come to some kind of resolution. Fans will have to wait until The Family Chantel premiere to see if this couple will make it or not. In the meantime, there is still plenty of Chantel and Pedro drama on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? to keep fans satisfied until The Family Chantel premiere later this month. Fans of Chantel and Pedro are excited to see a whole show just devoted to them and the opinionated family members that accompany them.
The Family Chantel premieres Monday, July 22 at 10 pm EST on TLC.
