90 Day Fiancé star Pedro Jimeno is engaged to girlfriend Valentina Malagon four years after his split from ex-wife Chantel Everett.
“Me and Valentina, we got a big, big announcement to tell you because we are engaged! We are going to get married,” Jimeno, 34, said in a video alongside Malagon uploaded via Instagram on Tuesday, June 23. “I proposed to Valentina in Hawaii.”
Malagon shared in the clip that she was “very surprised” by the proposal but it was ultimately an “amazing” experience.
“The day of the proposal, I [said], ‘We are going to go to the best place in Hawaii, to the best restaurant.’ And we drive an hour away,” Jimeno recalled. “When we went to the place it was nothing, in the middle of nowhere. And she was like, ‘Really? It’s not a restaurant here.’ She was a little pissed because she was hungry. But I got it done!”
The couple also explained that they want to start the wedding planning process “very soon” and are looking to hold the ceremony in either Colombia, the Dominican Republic or the United States.
Jimeno also recalled how he and Malagon’s “amazing connection” has grown since they met in Tulum.
“My life [has] changed with Valentina. She loves me a lot,” he said before the pair ended the video with a sweet kiss.
Jimeno also included a special message for his fiancée.
“Today we’re not just celebrating a ‘yes.’ We’re celebrating the moment when two paths, two stories, and two dreams decided to become one forever,” he wrote in the post’s caption. “Valentina came into my life as an answer, as a blessing that God placed on my path to show me that true love isn’t something you search for … it’s something you recognize.”
Jimeno continued, “With her, I learned that peace also has a name, that home can live in a single look, and that the future is built hand in hand with the person who lifts you up, honors you, and loves you with truth. Today, our greatest story begins: a story of faith, purpose, and a love that never gives up.”
Jimeno also expressed his gratitude to have Malagon as his partner in life.
“Thank you, my love, for choosing this journey with me,” he shared. “What’s coming will be even more beautiful than what we’ve dreamed … because with you, every day I become a better man. I love you.”
Before falling in love with Malagon, Jimeno was married to Chantel Everett. The now-exes were featured on 90 Day Fiancé season 4 as well as their spinoff show The Family Chantel. After a contentious split, Jimeno and Everett divorced in 2022.
