90 Day Fiance couple Chantel Everett and Pedro Jimeno are dishing on whether there will be a second season of their The Family Chantel spinoff on TLC.

The Family Chantel aired from July to September 2019 and left fans wanting more considering Chantel and Pedro's families were still at odds and problems had yet to be resolved.

So is Season 2 of The Family Chantel in the works?

"We're not currently filming anything right now besides the Quarantine special," Chantel told Entertainment Tonight, referring to the couple's upcoming appearance on TLC's 90 Day Fiance: Self-Quarantined currently airing on Monday nights.

When asked if there are talks for another season, Chantel replied, "We're not sure if there is anything else for us in the future."

However, Chantel confirmed she and Pedro would definitely be up for filming a second season of their own reality show.

"We would like to," Chantel noted.

"I think it's helpful to film even in the bad times we have with our arguments and everything, because when you watch it back, it sort of puts everything into perspective and you see how you were actually reacting in certain moments and you can process it better and see if it was rational or not."

Chantel said watching Season 1 of The Family Chantel last year was a learning experience.

"It gives you an opportunity to maybe right wrongs, where you may have not really meant something with your families," Chantel explained, adding that she and Pedro have made amends on several occasions.

"With each other, we've done that a lot... You just go back and you say, 'I'm sorry, that was way out of line," Chantel noted.

Earlier in their interview with ET, Pedro revealed he and Chantel are still "working through things," but Chantel pointed out being quarantined together amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has helped them grow closer and have deep conversations.

"I feel like we still have a long way to go," Chantel explained. "Well, not a long way to go because we've been married for a few years, but it's always a work in progress. We can't stop trying and getting better."

But Chantel insisted her marriage is "in a better place" as far as trust goes and they've "made a lot of progress" in that area.

Of the couple's lingering issues, Chantel and Pedro's sparring families is unsurprisingly one of them.

"Family issues, are they ever ending? Like, they're never ending and I feel like that's an ongoing thing that you have to continuously work at," Chantel shared.

"And I mean, hopefully certain things will all just come out in the wash because you have to get over certain things and let them go, so, family is definitely still an issue with us."

As much as Pedro tried to improve his relationship with Chantel's parents on The Family Chantel and Karen Everett and Thomas Everett worked to make Pedro feel accepted and welcome, an insider told In Touch Weekly in December 2019, "Pedro still can't stand Chantel's family and vice-versa."

"They don't talk often and it doesn't seem like they will make amends any time soon. Pedro is focused on bringing his mom and sister to the United States," the insider added.

Pedro's mother Lidia and sister Nicole both currently live in the Dominican Republic but have been hoping to move to the U.S. so they can be with Pedro -- who lives with Chantel in Atlanta, GA -- and purse the American dream.

Despite their flaws, Chantel told People in July 2019 if she could go back and do it all over again, she'd still choose to be with Pedro and endure the struggles they've had.

"I would still choose to marry him, but I would definitely have more realistic expectations," Chantel admitted.

Chantel and Pedro, who met online over four years ago and got engaged after Chantel visited Pedro several times in the Dominican Republic, originally appeared on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance on TLC.

Once Chantel's family learned Chantel would be getting married after a whirlwind romance overseas, they were suspicious Pedro was after Chantel's money and/or a Green Card.

Chantel's family also thought it was strange Pedro was frequently sending money home to his mother Lidia and sister Nicole in the Dominican Republic.

To ensure Pedro wasn't keeping any secrets or living a double life, Chantel's family hired a private investigator to research his background and also demanded the couple sign a prenuptial agreement in order to protect Chantel's financial interests before their wedding.

Pedro hated that Chantel's family didn't trust him, but Pedro's mother and sister weren't fond of Chantel either and disapproved of their relationship.

Pedro and Chantel later appeared on Seasons 2, 3 and 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?.

Tension between the two families exploded during the third season of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, when Pedro got into a blowout fight with Chantel's brother River at the dinner table and then Nicole accused Chantel's family of attacking her in their home. 

Neither side ever budged on offering an apology, so there was a standstill between families that resulted in more confrontations and disagreements down the road, as no one agreed upon who was to blame.

Problems between Chantel and Pedro also came to a head when Pedro visited his family in his native country, only to get caught dirty dancing with Coraima. Pedro's mother and sister also blamed Chantel for taking Pedro away from them and being a selfish wife.

But Chantel's family accused Lidia and Nicole of setting up Pedro's relationship with an American, who turned out to be Chantel, so Pedro would have more opportunities to make money and they could eventually move to the United States as a family.

Chantel's parents viewed Lidia and Nicole as being manipulative and dishonest about their intentions.

On The Family Chantel spinoff, which wrapped in September 2019 on TLC, Pedro felt alone in the United States, and even family counseling didn't seem to help the dynamic between Pedro and Chantel's family.

The Family Chantel featured both families gathering together twice in the Dominican Republic in order to hopefully talk out their issues and find peace, but mean words were thrown around and screaming erupted.

Chantel vented in one episode, "They're not receptive to any kindness. I hope all dogs go to heaven because Pedro's mom and sister are complete b-tches. There's no way [they're] going to be living with me under the same roof -- ever."

Having a language translator helped during the second meeting, but it appeared enough damage had been done to prevent truly amicable relations in the future -- until both families came together and had a friendly visit with Pedro's sick grandmother.

However, the finale of The Family Chantel showed Chantel throwing a drink at Coraima following a heated discussion about Pedro's wild night out in the Dominican Republic.

Nicole naturally took Coraima's side, and so Chantel realized any improvement in her relationship with Pedro's sister had just been destroyed. However, Pedro had Chantel's back.
