Chantel from Atlanta, GA, and Pedro from the Dominican Republic met online about seven years ago, and Chantel first introduced Pedro to her family under the false pretense of him coming to America on a student visa.

The pair got married in the U.S. much to the dismay of Chantel's family, who questioned the former baseball player's intentions. Chantel and Pedro proceeded to move out of a small apartment and into a big home together.

Pedro and Chantel weathered major marital ups and downs throughout the years, including stubborn and clashing family members as well as the couple's own trust and jealousy issues.

On Season 4 of the TLC spinoff, which premiered in June 2022, Chantel admitted to the cameras that she felt "low" because Pedro -- who used to treat her like a queen and affectionately call her "Pinky" -- wasn't living up to her expectations of him as a man and a husband.

As for Pedro, he said he had always been supportive of Chantel's nursing career and she didn't know how to be happy for him now that he began working a job as a real estate agent that he loved. Pedro also accused Chantel of being "lazy" and not cooking or cleaning enough for him while he's at the office.

"Sometimes, I don't even want to get home," Pedro said, adding how he liked to get home from work once Chantel was already asleep.

Chantel had noticed Pedro was working late most nights, and she accused him of being "rude and inconsiderate." Chantel, who had been trying to impress Pedro and make him happy, said her communication with Pedro was poor and he was living like he was single.

Chantel said there was no possibility of having a baby with Pedro because they needed to start the fire again. Pedro also couldn't envision having a baby with Chantel for at least five years.

The couple's relationship had become tense and uncomfortable. When Pedro woke up one morning, for instance, Chantel was scrambling eggs for Pedro, and he demanded boiled eggs instead.

Chantel said she was trying to speak Pedro's love language but he was "ungrateful" and didn't know how to say "thank you."

"What's going on with you, Pedro? I want the old Pedro back," Chantel griped. "You haven't been kissing me and you haven't been hugging me. We haven't had sex in months."

Pedro told the cameras that he wanted his relationship with Chantel to be 50/50 and have Chantel stop thinking about herself. He wanted to come home to a clean house with food on the table.

And Chantel felt like she was "the only person showing up" to their relationship and putting effort into saving the marriage.

Chantel said she felt hopeless because it seemed like nothing she ever did for Pedro was enough. Pedro apparently made her feel stupid and annoying, like she couldn't do anything right.

"Why are you even with me?" Chantel asked.

"Because I [didn't] know you were going to turn out like that," Pedro replied.

And when Chantel demanded for Pedro to confess that he no longer loved her, Pedro didn't give her any of the reassurance or validation that she needed.

Chantel's family would tell something was going on, and so Karen told Pedro that a woman is no longer required to take care of a household by herself and he did not marry "a maid robot."

And Chantel's brother River suggested the couple could hire a cleaning lady, but Pedro said if Chantel couldn't take care of a house, she wouldn't be able to take care of children and a family.

"You're stuck in the dark ages. I'm sure you could find some compromise," Karen told Pedro, adding how he used to play video games all the time while Chantel studied and so Chantel deserved to be a little lazy.

Chantel complained about Pedro coming home at 3AM, without a word of where he had been all night and with whom.


"Is it because you got everything that you could get from me and now I've run dry?" Chantel asked Pedro. "You got your visa, you got your money, you got your job, and you're ready to fly the coop?"

Pedro was upset with Chantel for the "low blows" and for treating him like property rather than a person.

Chantel recalled Pedro being at the mall with Antonella one night when Chantel was cooking dinner for him. Chantel said Pedro allowed her imagination to run wild, and then she flat out asked him, "Are you cheating on me?"

"No, I not cheating on you. I swear to God. If I was cheating on you, I [would've] left the house a long time ago," Pedro replied.

Pedro thought he always prioritized Chantel in his life, especially because he had thrown his mother and sister "into the trash" when all three ladies had been in conflict.

Pedro's mother Lidia told Pedro over FaceTime that Chantel was jealous and selfish and that his wife was at fault for the couple's issues. Lidia thought Pedro was ready to move forward and Chantel was stuck in the past.

Meanwhile, Karen and Chantel agreed that Pedro's expectations of his wife were "not fair," and Chantel said she worked a high-stress job that Pedro clearly didn't understand or respect.

"My parents do have reason to be concerned. Pedro treats me with all of this hatred -- talking down on me and mocking me and trying to get a rise out of me," Chantel explained in a confessional.

"But I don't want them to know that, at least for now."

Chantel then attended a wedding alone, and she wasn't sure if Pedro even knew how he had been neglecting her. She wanted the old Pedro, her husband, back.

Pedro's rationale was that he and Chantel were on totally different pages. He said Chantel often complained that he was working too hard, but Pedro said his real estate career wasn't about the money -- it was about doing something important for himself and living up to his potential.


Pedro said if he and Chantel had the same goals, life would be so much better and make more sense.

Chantel sought comfort in and advice from her best friend, Destinee, and Chantel shared what was bothering her the most.

"There was one night when Pedro came home and he had a girl's name taped to his keys. It said Antonella, a girl he works with whom he takes to work all the time," Chantel told her friend. "Her charger is in there, her cup, and the mirror is down at times, like when a girl has been doing her makeup in there."

Pedro claimed he had been playing a game in the office with his co-workers.

"I'm going to fight for my relationship. I'm going to fight for my marriage, and I hope that by me fighting, he'll see my efforts and he'll realize that I love him and I'm here for better or for worse," Chantel said in a confessional.

Chantel didn't get along with Pedro's co-workers and thought they were stuffy, but she wondered what made them more interesting considering Pedro chose to spend all of his free time with them.

Chantel therefore showed up at a bar where Pedro was hanging out with his co-workers, but Pedro immediately questioned Chantel's intentions and didn't think she had a selfless motive.

But Chantel quickly called Antonella out and lose her cool.

"He treats me like I'm nothing at home, but to do it in front of his peers was a different level of betrayal," Chantel explained in a confessional.

Pedro flashed Chantel a dirty look and seemed displeased she was even there, so Chantel lashed out and made a scene, which she later regretted.

Pedro said he couldn't give his wife love when she didn't trust him and accused him of cheating.

"So what are you going to do?" Chantel asked.

"Move out," Pedro replied. "That's it."

"You're going to move out?" Chantel questioned. "I didn't say that I wanted you to move out. So what makes you say that you want to move out?"

"Because I make you unhappy," Pedro said.

"Well that's going to make me even more unhappy, if you move out," Chantel responded.

Pedro suggested he could maybe find an apartment, and Chantel feared Pedro moving out was going to be the first step towards getting a divorce.

Chantel said she didn't want this, adding, "This is the worst thing that could ever happen. I want my marriage, I love my husband. I don't agree with this."

Chantel apologized to Pedro and opened up about how she didn't want a separation and felt "pathetic" because she had been "begging for affection and attention" from her husband that she allegedly never received. But Pedro didn't think it was healthy to keep fighting.

Pedro thought that in order to find happiness, Chantel may not be able to be in his future.

In a last-ditch effort to save her marriage, Chantel decided to fly to the Dominican Republic and fix her relationship with Pedro's mother Lidia to show how much she cared about him. Chantel believed her lack of a relationship with Pedro's family was always a wedge between them.

"He feels like he's made so much progress with my family and I haven't put forth the same effort, so I'm making it my priority... to figure something out," Chantel explained in a confessional. "I am willing to do anything at this point."

Chantel, who lied to her family and Pedro about her whereabouts, was able to smooth things over with Lidia, but her visit to his hometown made Pedro more mad than ever.

Pedro complained about how Chantel always played the victim, and he was angry about Chantel sharing their business with his family, whom he used to "talk sh-t" about.

"Now she wants to be best friends with my mom, when she never talked to my mom," Pedro said.

Pedro said he was "disappointed" that Chantel was trying to persuade his mother to change his mind about their relationship, and he also viewed it as a betrayal on Chantel's part because his mother had given him no compassion in regards to the situation with his father.

Pedro said Chantel had "no respect" for him and was "acting like a little girl." He claimed she wanted to be chased all the time, and then he showed up to the hotel where he and Chantel usually stayed together.

"I regret right now giving up my family for Chantel. My family is the most precious thing I have... And in the end, I [gave] up my family for you, and you took that for granted too," Pedro complained of his wife.

So what happened between Chantel and Pedro? Did the couple split up and get divorced, or are they still married and together now?

In an October 2021 interview with Us Weekly, Pedro all but confirmed he and Chantel were still married.

"After the fight [with River], it was a terrible situation between Chantel and me. We almost [broke] up. We almost broke apart. But we went to counseling and family counseling," Pedro said at the time.

"We've taken a lot of counseling... many hours of counseling to try to deal with [family problems] and trying to resolve the family problems. Counseling has been working so far."

He added, "Now I can be at the table and we won't start a fight. We can be more civil. We can be a little bit more open. Now I feel I can spend more time with her family than before because they are accepting me for who I am."

"I finally feel like we are a little bit at peace now," Pedro continued. "Everybody knows now if you don't mess with me, I won't mess with you."

Chantel also told Us that Pedro was "not on the outskirts of our family" anymore because "we love him and there's nothing that he could do or anybody can do to change our relationship."

And the couple proceeded to post photos of each other on Instagram around Thanksgiving and Christmas 2021.

But things went south from there, and as of July 2022, there is no sign of Chantel anywhere on Pedro's Instagram account. Chantel has also wiped all signs of Pedro from her Instagram page.

In the first half of 2022, Chantel and Pedro, split and filed for divorce as well as mutual restraining orders after six years of marriage.

Pedro pulled the plug on his marriage and filed for divorce from Chantel on May 27, 2022 according to online court records obtained by Us.

Chantel later filed her own petition as well as a mutual restraining order.

Chantel's current Instagram bio reads, "The whole time you though that you were not enough, you were over qualified."

Chantel has also recently called Pedro a "liar" on her Instagram Stories.

Chantel has refuted some of Pedro's claims on the show -- including how he had allegedly invited Chantel to work outings only for her to decline. Chantel also denied how she supposedly never cleaned their house, In Touch Weekly reported.

Chantel also took a jab at Pedro when she reportedly posted a since-deleted Instagram video of herself making dinner.

"Cooking after a 12-hour shift at the hospital for a man who doesn't come home," the nurse wrote.

According to court documents, Pedro claimed he and Chantel separated one month before he filed for divorce in May, saying their marriage was "irretrievably broken," TMZ reported.

When Pedro filed for divorce, he reportedly also filed an emergency motion on the same day, claiming Chantel had withdrawn $257k from their joint business account without his approval.

Chantel allegedly took the money only five days before they separated in April and transferred it to an account in her and her sister Winter Everett's name.

Pedro claimed he had attempted to reach a resolution with Chantel in private but was unsuccessful, and so he asked the judge to make Chantel transfer the money to a joint account so they can split the money up legally in their divorce proceedings.

The judge denied Pedro's request for an emergency hearing, but a hearing will be set for a later date to find a solution, according to TMZ.

Chantel's attorney Jarett R. Sliz reportedly declined comment on the matter.

According to subsequent legal documents Chantel filed on July 7, Chantel claimed adultery is the reason for her divorce from Pedro, Entertainment Tonight reported.

Chantel also accused her estranged husband of "cruel treatment" by "physical domestic violence, as well as mental pain."

Chantel said her marriage "is irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation."

The nurse filed the court documents in Gwinnett County, GA, and asked the court to equally distribute the material debt.

Chantel also requested that Pedro be forced to return her cell phone and back up storage devices for her computers and cell phone.
