Sooner or later, Pedro Jimeno from The Family Chantel may regret ending his relationship with Chantel Everett. He was in his mid-20s when he met Chantel, a Georgia native, through a mutual friend. Pedro was charmed by Chantel’s personality and soon entered a relationship with her. Within a few months of dating, Pedro made the decision to marry Chantel and move to the United States. He invited Chantel to the Dominican Republic, and she applied for his K-1 visa upon returning to the United States. Pedro and Chantel appeared in 90 Day Fiancé season 4 to televise their romantic journey.

Pedro and Chantel initially faced many challenges. Chantel didn’t inform her family that she had invited Pedro to the United States on a K-1 visa, leading to drama later. Fortunately, Pedro’s in-laws didn’t escalate the situation. Although they were skeptical of Pedro’s intentions, they welcomed him into the family. Pedro and Chantel tied the knot in 90 Day Fiancé season 4 and seemed to be starting off well due to shared goals. They even secured a spin-off, The Family Chantel, which featured their adventures, arguments, and family drama.

Pedro and Chantel seemed to be a good match, but their family issues caused their marriage to fall apart. In 2022, Pedro started to distance himself from Chantel, causing her great pain. He confessed that he no longer loved her and wanted out of the marriage so he could focus on his new job as a real estate agent. Pedro made it clear that he had no intentions of trying to salvage their relationship. In The Family Chantel season 4, Pedro asked Chantel for a divorce. He quickly moved on, showing he was happier being single.

10Pedro Should’ve Distanced Himself From His Family Instead

Lidia Morel & Nicole Jimeno Were The Main Culprits

Pedro made a mistake by leaving Chantel instead of distancing himself from those who ruined his marriage.

His family members, specifically his mother, Lidia Morel, and his sister, Nicole Jimeno, were the root causes of constant family drama. Both women were always involved in every argument that unfolded on the TLC show. Pedro’s marriage suffered because Lidia and Nicole never accepted Chantel. The mother-daughter duo treated Chantel poorly, showing hostility towards her. They even verbally disrespected Chantel, pushing her to retaliate with the same negativity. If Pedro had been wise, he would’ve realized that Chantel was never the instigator. Instead, Lidia and Nicole sparked fights and created a negative atmosphere.

9Pedro’s In-Laws Were His Family

The Everett Family Never Let Pedro Feel Alone

Pedro’s in-laws were some of his biggest supporters. His mother-in-law, Karen Everett, initially had doubts about his intentions but eventually became a mother figure to him, offering the love and support he needed.

Karen treated Pedro as if he were her own son, even embracing him after a public meltdown, showing him her unwavering support. Chantel’s father, Thomas Everett, also played a patriarchal role by offering advice, knowledge, and experience. Chantel’s siblings, Winter and River Everett, welcomed Pedro into the family. Unfortunately, Pedro’s sister didn’t treat Chantel well. Pedro‘s recent Instagram posts suggest that he feels lonely in the United States, a feeling that may be alleviated if he still had the support of his in-laws.

8Chantel Was Truly Committed To Pedro

Chantel Tried To Save Their Marriage

Pedro may soon regret breaking up with Chantel because she was truly committed to him. While most people desire a trustworthy partner, not everyone is fortunate enough to have a significant other who is dedicated to them. Pedro was very fortunate to have someone like Chantel, who put a lot of effort into the relationship. She went above and beyond to make their marriage successful. Not only did Chantel pay for Pedro’s visa and other expenses, but she also supported him in becoming independent in the United States. She even visited her unsupportive mother-in-law when Pedro backed out of the marriage. Pedro may never be able to find a wife as kind and caring as Chantel.

7Chantel Had A Lucrative Career As A Nurse

Chantel Was An Ideal Match For The Career-Driven Pedro

In The Family Chantel season 4, Pedro accused Chantel of being lazy and uninspired, claiming she lacked the determination to achieve success and therefore was incompatible with him. As of December 2024, Chantel has become more successful than ever before. She is now an independent nurse at a luxury cosmetic clinic, showcasing her hard-working nature and passion for her job by sharing content online.

Together, Pedro and Chantel were an iconic couple, even having their own reality TV show. If they had stayed together, they would still be just as famous. They would have a yearly show, a large fan following, and a great number of opportunities.

He not only lost a wife or in-laws but also the opportunity for a better married life in the United States. The TLC couple had acquired many assets together, including a beautiful home and a joint bank account. If Pedro had remained with Chantel, he would likely have more money now.

In a previous interview, Lidia revealed that Pedro’s father left her with no choice, stating, “I remember that their father went back to his wife, and I didn’t want to live a life like that of a life of loneliness, right?” Pedro’s unresolved issues with his father likely contributed to his self-centered behavior, causing him to mirror his father’s actions more than he would have liked. Pedro disrespected his marriage by prioritizing himself, leaving Chantel, and breaking the vows.
