Chantel Everett is a wife again. On October 17, 2026, she married Ashley Bowen in Alabama — and within days, Pedro Jimeno answered with his own love story, reposting his romantic proposal to Valentina Malagon. Two weddings, two exes, and one family caught in the middle: the Everetts.
Here is the question nobody is asking out loud yet: the Everetts spent years defined by their war with Pedro. Now that both exes have moved on, what does Everett loyalty mean anymore?
Two Weeks a Wife: Chantel’s New Chapter Is Real
Chantel and Ashley said their vows on October 17 at Fountainview Mansion in Auburn, Alabama, in front of about 60 guests, according to PEOPLE. Chantel wore a heavily embellished TTON Couture gown; Ashley wore a bejeweled white suit with sparkling sneakers. After exchanging handwritten vows in private, they left by helicopter and honeymooned in Cancun, a surprise Ashley had planned in secret.
Chantel told PEOPLE the marriage is “the everyday commitment to growing together, creating a home, and being each other’s family.” This was not a rebound storyline. Ashley proposed on December 17, 2025, at Uhuburg, a Renaissance castle in Helen, Georgia — and the love story started inside the family itself, when Chantel met Ashley through her brother River at one of his birthday parties.
Pedro Answered With His Own Love Story
Pedro did not stay quiet for long. Days after Chantel’s wedding, he reposted his proposal to Valentina Malagon — the June 6, 2026 moment when he got down on one knee on a beach in Oahu, Hawaii, under a heart-shaped arch of red roses. The couple announced their engagement on June 23, 2026, and Pedro told PEOPLE that with Valentina, he learned “peace has a name.”
Fans immediately split over the timing. Some read the repost as jealousy; others say it was simple affection. Pedro himself has not said the repost was connected to Chantel’s wedding, so the jealousy theory remains fan speculation, according to reports. What is confirmed: as of late October 2026, no wedding date for Pedro and Valentina has been publicly confirmed. The next wedding in this saga is still to come.

At the 90 Day: Hunt for Love Tell All, Karen clashed with Ashley onstage, called her a “clout chaser,” and said she was an extremely worried mom who did not want her daughter hurt again. Then came the promise that has followed every wedding conversation since: asked how she would feel if Chantel and Ashley married, Karen answered, “I would come to the wedding.”
Whether that promise held in Auburn is still unanswered: the guest list has never been published, and neither Karen nor Thomas has publicly confirmed whether they were there. That silence is the whole story. And a second test is coming: when Pedro marries Valentina, his mother Lidia and sister Nicole will be in the front row. Do the Everetts finally let the old war end, or do they keep score forever?
Two Camps, One Family
Fans are already choosing sides, and the split is no longer really about Chantel or Pedro. It is about what loyalty means after a divorce. Team Let Them Both Be Happy says four years is enough: the divorce was finalized years ago, both exes have found new partners, and clinging to the old war only punishes two people who have already moved on.
Team Everett Forever says loyalty is not something you switch off when the wedding photos drop. Karen fought for her daughter when nobody else would, and cheering Pedro’s second wedding would feel like forgetting all of it. Both camps love the same family. They just disagree on what loving that family requires now. So here is your turn, and keep it to one word in the comments: LETGO or LOYAL? Should the Everetts — and this fandom — finally let Pedro’s wedding pass in peace, or does Everett loyalty mean never forgetting what the family went through? Drop your word, then tell us why.
