Well, well, well… Pedro Jimeno has officially entered his “new life, new love, new ring” era.
The former 90 Day Fiancé and The Family Chantel star is engaged to his girlfriend, Valentina Malagon, and honestly, this is one of those updates that instantly makes the whole fandom sit up like, “Wait… excuse me?”
Because let’s be real. Pedro’s love life has never exactly been quiet.
Fans first met him through his whirlwind romance with Chantel Everett, and that relationship turned into one of the most dramatic 90 Day Fiancé stories ever. Secret engagement, family drama, culture clashes, accusations, blowups, tears, and eventually a divorce that basically became its own reality-TV universe.
Now, years after his split from Chantel, Pedro is ready to walk down the aisle again.
And this time, it is with Valentina.
Pedro Proposed in Hawaii — Because Apparently We’re Going Full Romance Movie
According to PEOPLE, Pedro proposed to Valentina on June 6 during a beach proposal in Oahu, Hawaii.
And no, this was not some casual “let’s talk about the future over dinner” moment.
This was a full-on romantic setup with red roses, candles, a glowing “Will You Marry Me?” sign, and a heart-shaped proposal display. Pedro also reportedly presented Valentina with a pear-shaped diamond ring in a heart-shaped box.
So yes, he went all in.
Say what you want about Pedro, but the man clearly understood the assignment when it came to the visuals.
It was romantic. It was dramatic. It was very Instagram. And it was definitely the kind of proposal 90 Day fans were going to dissect immediately.
Who Is Valentina Malagon?
Valentina Malagon is from Colombia, and she has slowly become a bigger part of Pedro’s public life over the past year.
PEOPLE reported that Pedro and Valentina first connected online before eventually meeting in person in Tulum, Mexico. After that, their relationship became more public through social media, with the two sharing trips, couple photos, and sweet moments together.
Pedro has also spoken very warmly about her, calling their connection meaningful and making it clear that he sees this relationship as a major blessing in his life.
Basically, Pedro is not presenting this like a casual rebound.
He is presenting Valentina like his person.
And now there is a ring to prove it.
Of Course, Fans Are Bringing Up Chantel
Obviously, the second Pedro’s engagement news hit, fans were going to think about Chantel Everett.
How could they not?
Pedro and Chantel were not just another 90 Day Fiancé couple. They were one of the franchise’s biggest couples ever. Their relationship was so messy, so emotional, and so family-involved that TLC literally gave them their own spinoff.
Their split was ugly, public, and honestly exhausting to watch.
By the end, it felt like the love between them had been completely buried under resentment, family interference, suspicion, and years of unresolved tension.
So now that Pedro is engaged again, fans are naturally asking the shady little questions.
Did he move on too fast?
Is Valentina getting a totally different version of Pedro?
Will Chantel react?
Is this his true happy ending?
Or is the fandom about to reopen the entire Pedro vs. Chantel courtroom in the comments?
Because let’s not pretend they won’t.
But Chantel Has Moved On Too
Here is where it gets interesting: Pedro is not the only one starting a new chapter.
Chantel has also moved forward in her own life after the divorce. So while fans may be tempted to turn Pedro’s engagement into another Chantel comparison war, the truth is both of them seem to be building separate lives now.
And honestly? Good for them.
Their marriage gave viewers years of drama, but it also looked painful by the end. Sometimes two people can have a huge love story and still not be meant to stay in each other’s lives forever.
Pedro getting engaged does not erase what happened with Chantel.
It just proves that chapter is really, really closed.
Pedro Seems Ready for a Fresh Start
Pedro has spent the last few years trying to move away from the chaos of his marriage and divorce.
He has focused on real estate, fitness, his public image, and now this new relationship with Valentina.
Whether fans love him or still side-eye him, this engagement is clearly a big personal milestone. Pedro is not just dating again. He is planning another marriage.
And after how public his first marriage became, that is a bold step.
Because if you marry inside the 90 Day universe once, fans will watch.
If you marry again after one of the franchise’s messiest divorces?
Oh honey, they are watching with popcorn.
Will Pedro and Valentina Be on TV?
That is the big question.
Right now, there is no official confirmation that Pedro and Valentina are filming for a 90 Day Fiancé spinoff.
But come on.
A former franchise star gets engaged to a Colombian woman after a very public divorce from one of the most recognizable 90 Day cast members ever? That is exactly the kind of storyline TLC could turn into a full season if everyone involved wanted it.
There is already history.
There is already fan interest.
There is already a new fiancée.
And there is obviously built-in tension because Chantel’s name will always be attached to Pedro’s story.
So no, nothing is confirmed. But would it be shocking if cameras eventually got involved?
Not even a little bit.
Fans Are Split Already
Pedro has always been a polarizing 90 Day figure.
Some fans think he was treated unfairly and deserves happiness after years of family drama with Chantel.
Others still believe Chantel was hurt badly and feel skeptical of Pedro’s new love story.
Then there are the fans who are simply here for the mess and want to know whether Valentina has any idea what kind of fandom she just walked into.
Because being engaged to Pedro does not just mean joining his life.
It means joining one of the loudest comment sections in the entire 90 Day universe.
Bottom Line
Pedro Jimeno is engaged to Valentina Malagon, and whether fans are happy, shocked, suspicious, or already dragging Chantel into it, this is definitely one of the biggest post-divorce updates from the 90 Day world right now.
The proposal was romantic.
The ring was flashy.
The location was gorgeous.
And the fandom reaction is probably just getting started.
After everything Pedro went through with Chantel, this engagement feels like the official start of a brand-new chapter.
Now the real question is whether fans are ready to let him have it.
Because knowing this franchise?
Probably not quietly.
