Pedro Jimeno Announces Engagement to Valentina Malagon

A beach proposal in Hawaii led to a 'yes,' with the couple saying they will begin wedding planning soon as they weigh Colombia, the Dominican Republic or the United States.

Overview

  • Jimeno publicly announced the engagement in a video on his Instagram account, saying he proposed in Hawaii and speaking warmly about a shared future.
  • People reported the proposal took place on Oahu and described an elaborate beach setup with a heart-shaped arch of red roses, candles and a 'Will You Marry Me?' sign, though those specifics come from a People exclusive and have not been independently verified.
  • The couple told reporters they will begin wedding planning soon and are considering holding the ceremony in Colombia, the Dominican Republic or the United States.
  • The engagement marks a new chapter for Jimeno after his high-profile split and 2022 divorce from fellow franchise alum Chantel Everett, whose marriage to him played out on 90 Day Fiancé and The Family Chantel.
  • The announcement was driven by the couple's social media post and quickly amplified by entertainment outlets, so readers should expect more details as the pair confirm a date, location and other plans.
