YouTube

Season 4 of The Family Chantel premieres next week. Though the focus has been on Chantel and Pedro’s crumbling marriage, there’s another major occurrence. Chantel’s sister Winter Everett is taking control of her weight, which she has struggled with for years. How is she doing this? Read on to find out more.

The Family Chantel’s Major Dysfunction

Both Pedro and Chantel have interesting families, to say the least. This is probably why they got a spinoff from their 90 Day Fiance days. Pedro’s sister, Nicole tried to break the couple up while Chantel’s sister, Winter just wanted to feel better about herself. She always felt that she was not thin enough especially compared to Chantel. There was a time that she contemplated weight loss surgery despite losing fifty pounds. It was this feeling that Chantel did not like having an overweight sibling. When she turned to Chantel for guidance, she told Winter just to go to the gym more.

Ultimately, Winter started showing off a more mature version of herself. She straightened her hair, went blonde, and did a bevy of photo shoots. It appeared she did not care what anyone thought as she exuded body positivity. She also continued to slim down and model workout wear which her followers loved. This was the Winter everyone knew was inside and now she was shining. However, in a preview for the upcoming season, she can be seen going under the knife. Did she finally undergo the weight loss procedure she had long been wanting?

Taking Drastic Measures

Though Winter is always seen working out, it apparently was not enough for her. According to In Touch Weekly, she ended up undergoing weight loss surgery. She has been considering this since 2016 when she was over three hundred pounds. Winter had been contemplating bariatric surgery but then went on to lose fifty pounds. Now, she finally takes the leap and gets the procedure she has long been dreaming of after years of working hard. Ultimately, Chantel’s younger sister got gastric sleeve surgery, as seen on the show. It shrinks the stomach to allow for long-term weight loss.

Luckily, she had the support of her mother and her sister as she went in for the procedure. Plus, Chantel is now a nurse so that was an additional reassurance. Her sister also shared with Winter that the surgeon would be taking out approximately seventy-five percent of her stomach. This is a huge step but a brave one for Winter and it is great to see her continuing to take control of her health.

Are you surprised she finally got the surgery? Let us know and watch The Family Chantel Mondays on TLC.
