Many 90 Day Fiancé cast members have earned attention for their weight loss progress, but The Family Chantel star Winter Everett remains the most popular franchise cast member to slim down. The younger sister of Chantel Jimeno may only be a side character on the spin-off show. However, Winter’s weight loss on The Family Chantel makes her stand out from other franchise cast members, for multiple reasons.
Winter has earned an influencer career after appearing alongside her older sister on The Family Chantel. While Chantel deals with ongoing marital problems with her husband Pedro Jimeno, Winter is single, after splitting from her controlling partner Jah during the show's fourth season. Her plot line on The Family Chantel now focuses on her bariatric surgery. While Winter is also seeking love (she is talking with a Nigerian man named Masoma), the Atlanta beauty is primarily sharing her weight loss journey with viewers. For the past year and a half, Winter has also broadcast her weight loss with her followers on social media.
While Winter appears on The Family Chantel, she was not one of the main 90 Day Fiancé cast members. However, her weight loss journey has gotten considerable attention for several reasons. One of the main reasons why Winter is so popular is because she portrays a message of body acceptance. Many stars shame their before photos and champion their after pictures, However, Winter has celebrated herself and her figure at every weight. This makes her unique in the extended 90 Day Fiancé franchise. It also makes her weight loss particularly inspiring, especially since her social media is filled with encouraging words.
Another reason why Winter has earned enormous praise from 90 Day Fiancé franchise fans for her weight loss is because of how honest she is. Many 90 Day Fiancé cast members have only shown the more glamorous sides of their weight loss, such as fancy (and often edited) results. However, Winter allowed her surgery to be filmed for The Family Chantel season 4. Viewers applauded Winter for allowing the more difficult and intimate side of weight loss to be shown. This provided viewers with a more realistic depiction of what weight loss surgery looks like. Winter has also carefully tracked her progress, to show that weight loss is not something that occurs overnight.
Overall, Winter has several characteristics that make her stand out in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. Winter is praised for her honesty, optimism, and self-acceptance. Winter takes her time to make her followers feel heard and appreciated. Many viewers also like how Winter’s relationship with Chantel has developed. While Winter was at first resentful of her slim and gorgeous older sister, she has come to accept Chantel, and celebrate that they are both beautiful women. Many The Family Chantel viewers enjoy seeing Chantel and Winter stand up for each other, and themselves.
