Winter Everett has become so famous among The Family Chantel viewers and I don't think she even needs to return to reality TV to maintain her popularity. The Atlanta native debuted on the show as a supporting cast member, supporting her older sister, Chantel Everett, in her relationship with Pedro Jimeno. Winter also navigated her relationship problems with her former boyfriend, Jah. In addition to romantic challenges, Winter also dealt with struggles related to her size and obesity. She felt less confident because of her physical appearance and often wore oversized clothing.
After splitting from Jah, Winter regained her confidence, became more expressive, and decided to turn her life around. In 2022, The Family Chantel alum traveled to Mexico to undergo bariatric surgery. She started focusing on her life, transforming every aspect of her body. In just two years, Winter surprised her fans by dropping 122 pounds. She not only shed weight but also became a plus-sized model. During her last appearance on TV, Winter became a favorite among fans because of her defense of Chantel. She called out her former brother-in-law, Pedro, and confronted him about his mistreatment of her sister.
Winter Is Focused On Self-Care
Winter's Current Focus Is On Her Fitness Goals
I think Winter shouldn't be on a reality TV show because she's currently focused on personal growth. Unlike other 90 Day Fiancé franchise cast members, Winter isn't preoccupied with finding a romantic partner. She rarely talks about her relationship aspirations or dating adventures on social media. Instead, Winter prioritizes her self-care, weight loss, and fitness goals. I think it wouldn't be beneficial for Winter to showcase her journey on a reality TV show at this time. Perhaps she would be better suited for such a platform once she resumes dating.
Winter Has A Job As An Influencer
Winter's Future As An Influencer Could Be Jeopardized By Reality TV
I also believe appearing on reality TV would distract Winter from her job.
When she first appeared on TV, she wasn't well-known. However, Winter has since changed her life and discovered her calling. Winter has risen to fame as a social media influencer in the past few years, utilizing her weight loss transformation to become a champion of body positivity, consistently encouraging her followers to better themselves. I don't think it would be a smart decision for Winter to jeopardize her positive public image by appearing on reality TV again.

20 Best Reality TV Shows Right Now
Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.
I was hopeful for Chantel's journey in 90 Day: The Single Life. I hoped she would find a soulmate and prove to Pedro that he made a huge mistake by leaving her. However, Chantel made surprising choices that I questioned. The editing of the season further emphasized her flaws and turned her journey into a mockery. Chantel's embarrassing experience in 90 Day: The Single Life season 4 is the biggest reason I don't want Winter to appear on the spin-off and repeat her sister's mistakes. A reality TV show could permanently harm her reputation as a fitness influencer.
Reality TV No Longer Serves Winter Personally Or Professionally
Winter's Aspirations Don't Match With The Triviality Of Reality TV
I believe Winter can achieve her personal or professional goals without relying on reality TV.
Throughout the years, TLC viewers like myself have seen cast members join the show for either fame or to promote their businesses. One example is Big Ed Brown, who cashed in on his relationship with Rose Vega to become a controversial public figure. He used the drama to promote his Cameo and pursue relationships with younger women. Likewise, Shaeeda Sween expanded her yoga business through the show, Daniele Gates promoted her retreat business, and Miona Bell began selling ponytails.

The Family Chantel: I'm Convinced Winter Everett Deserves A Spin-Off After Stunning Weight Loss Transformation
Winter Everett from The Family Chantel has hit some big milestones in the last couple of years, making her story perfect for reality TV cameras.
I don't think Winter needs the show to find a partner or to fulfill her career aspirations. She's successful on her own, making money through collaborations and modeling. I believe the best way for Winter to appear on the show is as part of the supporting cast alongside her family. The network would benefit more from bringing back Chantel. They could even consider casting Chantel's attention-loving mother, Karen Everett. Winter, being more reserved, would likely enjoy appearing in just one or two scenes per episode, more than she did previously on The Family Chantel.
The Family Chantel is available for streaming on Discovery Plus.
