The Gist:
- The Family Chantel's Pedro Jimeno filed for divorce from Chantel Everett in May 2022.
- Pedro has been accused of infidelity during his marriage to Chantel.
- There have been rumors about who Chantel has dated since her split from Pedro, including links to Drake and Rich Dollaz.
So much has happened with the Everett family. TLC fans know that we first met Chantel Everett on 90 Day Fiancé where we were introduced to her man at the time, Pedro Jimeno. The two got married and eventually landed their own spinoff titled The Family Chantel.
On their spinoff series, we really got to see how married life was treating Pedro and Chantel and all the drama between both their families. Unfortunately, it didn't work out in the end because he filed for divorce in May 2022. The fifth and final season of the show delves into the divorce, and has naturally led to new questions from viewers.
Have Chantel and Pedro dated anyone since their split? And what's the deal with those Drake rumors? Here's the scoop.
Does Chantel Everett have a new boyfriend? Is Chantel dating Drake?
While it doesn't look like Chantel has a new boyfriend right now, she did confirm in Season 5, Episode 3 (which aired on Nov. 20, 2023) that Drake had previously reached out to her.
"After Pedro left me, I started getting a lot of attention from some really great guys, actors, football players, baseball players," Chantel said during the episode. "But it doesn't matter who was showing interest. Even if a famous Canadian rapper showed interest in me, I wasn't emotionally available to be receptive to anybody. I'd just gotten out of a seven-year marriage and that meant something to me."
The rumors about Chantel and Drake first caught fire in August 2022, when Media Take Out reported that the rapper had gotten in touch with the reality star. An "associate" of Drake's told the outlet at the time: “Drake reached out to see how she was doing and where her head was at, and she responded.” This person added: “They’ve been DMing each other back and forth, and are planning to meet up soon,” the friend added.
It's unclear if anything materialized between Chantel and Drake, but aside from this, Chantel was also previously linked Rich Dollaz in July 2022. For those who have watched Love & Hip Hop: New York, you have seen him before. He's been on the show since it began but became a main cast member in Season 9. He's also made appearances on the Atlanta and Hollywood versions of the show as well.
According to Dreddsworld, a source said in July 2022 that Chantel and Rich had been spotted in Atlanta together at least twice around that time. Anyone who has seen Rich on TV knows he seems to always have a woman in his life. Throughout his time on Love & Hip Hop, he was with a few of the different cast members. He was even on Season 17 of Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition with fellow star Mariahlynn.
However, it's unknown what may have happened between Chantel and Rich.
Who is Pedro Jimeno dating?
As of now, Pedro hasn't been confirmed to be dating anyone new. But part of the reason his relationship with Chantel was crumbling was because of cheating allegations. In Season 4 of The Family Chantel, he started working as a real estate agent and she accused him of stepping out of their marriage with his co-worker Antonella Barrenechea.
On their show, Pedro admitted that he had been giving Antonella rides home from work. Chantel thought there was something else going on while they were together. Pedro denied this. Viewers later came to suspect that Pedro may have been cheating with his boss Laura.
Either way, the accusations of infidelity clearly did a number on Chantel and Pedro's relationship.
