TLC is a money-maker when it comes to their rinse-and-repeat way of making spin-offs of their successful shows. Take The Family Chantel Season 5 for example, this show features a couple from 90 Day Fiance and follows Chantel Everett and Pedro Jimeno. Season four was a rather torrid slew of episodes in which all sorts of nasty things happening, concluding in the couple filing for divorce.
Since the two parted ways, they’ve been vocal, each on their own side, to different platforms, telling what they think is their side of the story. Since they always have a camera crew following them around, we know a little of what’s going on. What we don’t know is what takes place when the cameras are off, but that’s not too dissimilar to the dysfunctional dynamics portrayed in the show.
Now, with season five kicking off, we prepared for you a few details concerning the season’s debut episode, as well as schedules and more information you’ll find useful if you want to know how this once romantic story turned into a divorce story unfolds.
The Family Chantel Season 5 Episode 1 Recap
The new season of this TLC reality show begins following up on the divorce proceedings between Pedro and Chantel. It’s rather frustrating to see how Pedro’s mom and sister’s naughty, nastiness and ungratefulness toward Chantel. Furthermore, these family dynamics are dysfunctional and a bad example because during separations, no matter the circumstances, there should be a certain degree of civility and respect, and Chantel is not getting that.
Nicole, Pedro’s sister is having a rather uncomfortable way of expressing her feelings. The episode moves to a phone conversation between Pedro’s mom and sister where they trash-talk about her looks after the divorce, going as far as body-shaming her.
As for Chantel, she’s having Pedro have a sitdown with a divorce mediator to talk about a fair division of their former marital assets. Pedro sits down, and listens albeit reluctantly, he has on the back of his mind just how cajoling his family is about Pedro getting a bigger share of the assets than he actually deserves.
We see a heartbroken Chantel, she confides that she thinks that Pedro intentionally avoided having kids with her during their years of marriage. Chantel tells Pedro that she should go back to his home country, which is rather ironic because Pedro’s previous claims of moving too the United States based on love.
This episode covers how the immigration process is a complex thing, and tells us all about the emotional issues and ties that Pedro develops in America.
