According to TLC, The Family Chantel will pick up exactly where Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? leaves off, with Chantel and Pedro trying to work through their issues and attempt to create a happy life together in Atlanta, GA.
However, the transition back home won't be an easy one "after Chantel reveals all of the explosive information she learned on her trip to the Dominican Republic to her family," according to the network.
Chantel's family will race to confront Pedro in search of some answers. And Chantel's brother River and Pedro will come face-to-face for the first time since their brawl at the dining table.
"And secrets are revealed as the family is forced to open up. Will the divide between Pedro and Chantel's family grow even more, or will they be able to get over their differences and become closer than ever?" the network teases.
Meanwhile, Chantel's sister Winter will be shown struggling in her own relationship with her boyfriend Jah.
Chantel and Winter's parents, Karen and Thomas, feel like they know nothing about Jah, despite their five-year relationship.
Karen and Thomas will therefore enlist a private investigator to uncover "some shocking secrets," according to TLC, which is what they had previously done to Pedro.

In addition, Pedro's grandmother will fall ill, forcing him to return to the Dominican Republic. But this time, Chantel's entire family wants to join him.

TLC announced in early April that The Family Chantel would be coming to the network this July.
Chantel and Pedro initially appeared on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance and then went on to star on Season 3 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? last summer.
The married couple met online over four years ago when Chantel was looking for a Spanish teacher and Pedro hoped to learn some English in return. But what began as a mutually-beneficial relationship for educational purposes quickly turned into a mutual crush.
Chantel first introduced Pedro to her family under the false pretense of him coming to America on a student visa, and they've since weathered major marital ups and downs involving outspoken and stubborn family members to their own trust issues.
In the latest episode of Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Chantel learned from a friend in the Dominican Republic that Pedro's mother and sister allegedly set up her meeting with Pedro so they could eventually marry and Pedro could obtain a Green Card and have a better life in America.

Chantel wondered if Pedro's family successfully tricked him into marrying her or if he was part of this "conniving, evil, malicious" ploy.
