Lupillo Rivera Children
Lupillo Rivera was married to María Gorola from 1987 to 2002, but they eventually got divorced. During their 15-year marriage, they were blessed with four daughters: Ayana Rivera, Abigail Rivera, Angélica Marín, and Areana Pérez. Besides Abigail Rivera and Ayana Rivera, who are active on social media, the other two daughters prefer to keep their lives more private. There isn’t much reliable information available about them.
Ayana Rivera Saavedra
Ayana is Lupillo’s eldest child and daughter, born to María Gorola. She is currently in her thirties. Ayana is quite active on social media, particularly on Instagram. She enjoys sharing a variety of attractive pictures and dance videos, which her 264k followers seem to really enjoy. Ayana just had surgery to reshape her nose. She openly discusses her plastic surgeries and confidently shows off her beautiful figure.
The model/influencer is famous for being involved in the ongoing family feud that has been causing a lot of drama among the Riveras. Ayana and her sister, Abigail, have an ongoing feud with the Riveras. Their main conflicts are with their uncle, Juan Rivera, and their cousin, Chiquis Rivera, who is the daughter of Jenni Rivera. She went as far as getting a restraining order against Chiquis because she claimed that Chiquis went to Abigail’s house and threatened her.
Ayana recently made a claim that her uncle Juan Rivera and her aunt, Rosie Rivera, are attempting to rely on the money of Jenni and Lupillo. Juan Rivera has consistently maintained his innocence and has denied the accusations made against him.
Abigail Rivera
Abigail is the second daughter of Lupillo and his first wife, María Gorola. Before starting her current relationship, she was a single mother to her daughter, Alanna Janelle. Aria Elena, her other daughter, was born with her current partner Edgar. Alanna’s parents got together when she was only 5 months old. Abigail is also the stepmother of twin daughters named Esmeralda and Isabella. These two girls are Edgar’s daughters.
Even though she uses social media regularly, she doesn’t have as much influence as her older sister. Abigail has a YouTube account where she shares videos of herself singing and playing the guitar.
Abigail was heavily involved in the family scandal that caused a stir among the Riveras. When she was six years old, she witnessed an incident where her mom was beaten up. She publicly accused Rosie and Juan Rivera of being responsible for the assault. She also claimed that her cousin Chiquis had an affair with her stepfather Esteban Loaiza. She said that there was a threesome involving Esteban, Chiquis, and one of Jenni Rivera’s friends named Elena.
Lupillo, as you might have guessed, got really tired of all the family drama and decided to distance himself from his family. At some point, he decided to only communicate with his father, opting to avoid the heated arguments happening on social media.
It’s worth mentioning that Lupillo had a strained relationship with his older daughters for a few years following his divorce from their mom in 2005. Right now, it looks like they have worked things out because Lupillo is actively involved in his grandchildren’s lives.
Angélica Marín
Angélica is the third daughter of Lupillo and his first wife. Unlike her two older sisters, she has managed to maintain a healthy and positive relationship with her father and the rest of the Riveras. Angélica resides with her husband and son, Dean, in her father’s house. She doesn’t have the opportunity to see her mother frequently, but they do stay in contact.
Areana Pérez
Areana Pérez, Lupillo’s youngest daughter with María Gorola, shares her sister Angélica’s preference for a life away from the spotlight. Currently, Areana Pérez is married to Florencio Pérez and they have two children together. Their son’s name is Romeo and their daughter’s name is Mia. She has a lot of lovely pictures on her Instagram that show her family life. She is more reserved compared to her two older sisters, but she has a loving relationship with her extended family.
She has a friendly relationship with her dad, Lupillo, and stays in touch with her mom too. She isn’t part of any of the family conflicts happening within the Riveras.
Lupita Karizma Rivera
Lupita Karizma Rivera was born on August 4th, 2004. She is Lupillo’s fifth daughter, but she has a different mother than her older sisters. Just like her mom Mayeli Alonso, she has a natural talent for business at the age of 19. She owns her own brand called Karizma Beauty, which specializes in makeup and skincare products.
It appears that Karizma has inherited one of Rivera’s most desirable talents, in addition to her beauty. She also enjoys music. Lupillo is definitely her biggest supporter, and her mom is always there to promote her whenever she can. For a period of four months, she collaborated with her father to create her debut single titled “Los Niños Inocentes” featuring Lupillo Rivera.
Regarding her relationship with her dad, they have a strong bond and enjoy spending time together. Lupillo went all out and organized a stunning quinceañera celebration for Karizma when she reached the age of fifteen. Her friends and family members attended the party, which had been meticulously planned with every little detail in mind. They danced together in the traditional father-and-daughter style, adding a special touch to the occasion.
Karizma is not in a relationship at the moment. She is really dedicated to developing her career as a music artist and getting her brand out there. She mostly shares her incredible makeup skills and promotes various brand products on her Instagram posts. Right now, she has 217,000 followers on Instagram.
L’Rey Rivera
L’Rey Rivera is Mayeli Alonso’s only biological son and the youngest child of Lupillo Rivera. The person was born on August 8, 2008 and is currently 15 years old. They live with their dad and their dad’s third wife, Giselle Soto. Unlike his sister Karizma, he doesn’t have much contact with his mom. Lupillo and Mayeli Alonso had been having a series of disagreements regarding the way Mayeli was training their children.
So far, L’Rey has not been involved in any scandals. It’s hard to say for certain whether he’ll eventually join the family business, but right now, the young man is definitely enjoying the perks that come with being Lupillo Rivera’s only son.
José Guadalupe
In addition to his six biological children, Lupillo used to have a son named José Guadalupe. This occurred while he was in his first marriage. Lupillo received news that he fathered a child with Luz Galindo, even though they were not married. For twelve years, he gave financial support to José until he found out that the boy wasn’t his.
It was quite unexpected, but it turned out that the truth about Lupillo’s paternity fraud was revealed through a DNA test to determine his future heir. During that time, Mayeli was either pregnant or had already given birth to their son, which is why the test was necessary. Even though the paternity test came back negative, Lupillo still supported José Guadalupe until he turned 18 years old.
