• Family: the Spanish origin that Luis Miguel wants to silence
  • Television: The three great mysteries of Luis Miguel's life that the Netflix series will not tell

Until Luis Miguel arrived : The series in 2018, the paranoid and elusive behavior of the Mexican singer was seen as an example of poorly digested fame. However, the serialized biopic of his life showed the general public the origins of all those ghosts in his childhood and adolescence: the ambition of his father, the Spanish Luisito Rey , who managed his beginnings in music until making him a Latin megastar. , and the disappearance of his mother ( Marcela Basteri) in 1986 in circumstances not yet resolved. In this way, what previously caused embarrassment or stupefaction, such as the time he attacked a sound technician with the microphone during a concert or the other time he was photographed dripping self-tanner (not to mention his demand that he not be seen eyes in any case), is now a matter of condescension.

This has brought about a new dawn in the career of El Sol de México after erratic years in which the musical was left in the background, in the face of gossip and speculation. The singer's 50th birthday, this Sunday , after the announcement of the filming of the second season of his series, promised a celebration in style. However, the coronavirus pandemic has deactivated all kinds of events and Luis Miguel will celebrate his half century of life in this world practically alone.

As revealed on the cover of the Mexican edition of Hello! This week, Luis Miguel is currently on his Unique Yacht , at anchor in the Bayside Marina in Miami . Due to the epidemic, the boat cannot set sail, so the Mexican star is there with the company of his closest team, such as his brother Álex Basteri. He was seen with him at the end of March on one of the outings he made to stock up on food.

Who is not with him is his current girlfriend, Mollie Gould , three decades younger than the vocalist and who started as a showgirl of his shows and then started a relationship by the dates the series started. Nor are any of his three children with him. The oldest, Michelle Salas, was born in 1989, when Luis Miguel was 19 years old , as a result of his relationship with a very young Stephanie Salas, component of one of the best-known lines in the world of entertainment in Mexico: Silvia Pinal , muse of filmmaker Luis Buñuel is her grandmother and, therefore, Michelle's great-grandmother.

His other two children, Miguel (born in 2007) and Daniel (2008) are the result of his relationship with actress Aracely Arámbula . The protagonist of the soap opera La Doña , who ended her relationship with the voice of La unconditional one year after her second son was born, has since criticized his attitude towards caring for his offspring. Thus, he sued him in 2012 for not being up to date in the payment of the pension of the two little ones. And in 2018, on the occasion of the premiere on Netflix, he expressed himself in this way: "I hope the series does well, so he will catch up with the child support".

Over time, Arámbula's claims have gone from being monetary to emotional. Thus, last January the actress asked her, through a statement to the media, for more involvement with her children : "I would tell her to take that balm of love and in the most loving way not to miss those moments with them Not with me, it's with them. "

A complaint made at the time by Michelle Salas, whom Luis Miguel did not officially recognize as a descendant until she reached the age of majority.

Some people relate this attitude to his womanizing spirit - they have related him to Mariah Carey, Sofía Vergara or Brigitte Nielsen , among others. There has also been much speculation about the crypto - homosexuality of the Mexican since in 2013 the Argentine singer Pablo Ruiz assured in a Chilean television program that he had had sexual relations with Luis Miguel when he was 22 years old.

In any case, the relationship with Mollie Gould, saving the distance from their respective confinements, seems to be on the right track. The last public appearance of El Sol before the declaration of a pandemic took place at the Madrid-Barajas airport (perhaps back from seeing his good friends, the bullfighter Enrique Ponce and the aristocrat Luis Alfonso de Borbón) last February , where he could be seen with Gould, who has been gaining importance as an 'instagrammer'.
