Chantel Everett is opening up about her sexuality.
“Oh my God, I feel like I’ve lost all my words now,” Chantel, 34, said in a first look of the Monday, August 18, episode of 90 Day: Hunt for Love shared by People. “I feel like being able to experience all of the guys here really made it clear to me that I have something else that is for me back in Atlanta, that I have somebody at home.”
Before Chantel arrived to film Hunt for Love in Mexico, she shared a kiss with a family friend that left her questioning her sexuality.
“Before coming here, a friend of mine who is also a woman, reached out to me and actually told me that they had feelings for me,” Chantel said. “And since being here and dating everybody and experiencing everyone, I realized that I really care for her. I’ve decided that I want to explore that relationship a little further.”

Chantel further addressed her mindset in a confessional, noting that she is “proud of [herself]” for growing during her Hunt for Love journey.
“And, now, finally, I am officially public about my sexuality,” she added. “It feels great.”
The Family Chantel star, who was previously married to Pedro Jimeno, recently told Us Weekly why she was open to joining the TLC spinoff after her 2023 divorce.
“I’m a completely different person now,” Chantel exclusively told Us in May. “I feel like this is the better part of my dating life and of my love life. … I wanted to join the show to challenge myself to get outside of my comfort zone and see if there really is someone who maybe I don’t expect is my type that I could fall in love with.”

She added, “In this era of my life, I’m trying to keep an open mind and not judge books by their cover anymore.”
While Chantel couldn’t reveal how her Hunt for Love journey ended, she did tease to Us that she threw her typical type “out the window” in hopes of finding a “genuine love connection.”
Chantel further told Us that she was “grateful” to be a part of the 90 Day universe — if only fans would stop asking about her body.
“Everybody seems to think that my boobs are fake. That’s not probably the craziest [thing a fan has said], but that’s one that I want to address,” she told Us. “The boobs are not fake. I would not get fake boobs this big. They’re real. God gave me these.”
90 Day: Hunt for Love airs on TLC Mondays at 8 p.m. ET.
