I believe that if Pedro Jimeno from The Family Chantel were to improve his fashion game, he could improve his public image. He first featured in 90 Day Fiancé season 4 in his mid-20s. Pedro appeared to be a decent guy and had a great relationship with Chantel Everett. I was looking forward to seeing Pedro and Chantel tie the knot during the season and hoped they would become an iconic couple of the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. This dream came true when they got the opportunity to film their spin-off, The Family Chantel, with the network.
Watching Pedro and Chantel overcome many personal and family challenges impressed me. However, the constant drama eventually strained their relationship. In the last three seasons of the show, Pedro became disengaged from their marriage, displaying self-centered behavior that surprised fans, who had hoped he would work things out with Chantel. At the time, Pedro gained notoriety for his cold treatment of his wife and in-laws. He also faced backlash for allegedly cheating on Chantel and suggesting divorce. Pedro’s unapologetic actions ultimately cast him as the primary villain of The Family Chantel.
Pedro Has Been Able To Redeem Himself With Fans
Pedro Received Recognition For His Dedication Towards Achieving His Goals
Pedro has faced a lot of criticism over the last two years, but he has finally redeemed himself with his followers. I was never too upset with Pedro for ending his unhealthy marriage. However, many TLC viewers despised him for breaking up with Chantel and ending their six-year-long marriage. The alleged cheating scandals and Pedro’s lack of interest in disproving the accusations against him also made many fans criticize him. Some even theorized that he scammed Chantel and flooded his business page on social media with low ratings and negative reviews.

I was certain that Pedro would never be able to repair his public image due to how drastically he had damaged his reputation. However, Pedro surprised me by persevering and making efforts to become somewhat likable once again.
He managed to gain many fans by updating the content he posted on social media and sharing inspirational messages with his Instagram followers. Pedro restored his reputation and earned respect by remaining dedicated to his life goals. He always stated his desire to focus on his work and live a drama-free life, which is exactly what he did after his divorce.
Pedro Needs To Let Go Of Those Skinny Pants
Pedro’s Outdated Fashion Sense Draws Scrutiny
I believe Pedro has become much more likable over the last two years. However, he could still improve one aspect to reinvent himself completely.
I think Pedro‘s fashion style is the final barrier holding him back from moving on from his past. He still dresses the same way, which often reminds The Family Chantel viewers of his relationship with Chantel. In his latest pictures, Pedro is seen wearing the same type of outfit he wore on the show. He also likes wearing skinny jeans and pants, which don’t flatter him and attract negative comments.

90 Day Fiancé
cast members have changed their villainous image by altering their physical appearances.
One example is Larissa Lima, who not only revamped her fashion sense but also enhanced her beauty through cosmetic procedures. The Brazilian woman transformed into a completely different person after changing her appearance. Another former cast member, Anfisa Arkhipchenko, also followed a similar path by updating her wardrobe and becoming a professional bodybuilder. Pedro could take inspiration from his co-stars and enhance his appearance by wearing more stylish clothing to reset his reputation completely.
Pedro Must Dress In An Attire That Reflects A Successful Man’s Image
I feel that Pedro could also consider upgrading his footwear, replacing his old-fashioned loafers with chunky white sneakers or stylish urban shoes that suit his age.
Although Pedro is successful in his job as a real estate agent, he still comes across as immature for someone in real estate. Perhaps, Pedro should also consider updating his hairstyle, maybe growing out his beard to appear more mature and trustworthy. The Family Chantel alum might also consider switching to a more polished gentleman’s side-parted haircut, abandoning the cheap side-shaved look that makes him appear inexperienced.
