In an emotionally charged public statement that has shocked fans to their core, reggaeton icon Daddy Yankee revealed that he is divorcing his wife of over 2 decades, Mireddys González. The songstress and wife, who got married in 2000, had faced the height and the bottom, narrating their lives both in and outside their careers until today, when the artist had expressed a mournful statement, telling the world that they have reached a point to part their way.

A Personal and Difficult Decision

The announcement was also taken to social media by Daddy Yankee, actually Ramón Luis Ayala Rodríguez, adding it was not easy. Teary-eyed, he confessed that the separation has weighed down on both him and González. It is one of the most difficult moments of his life. “This isn’t an easy time for us, he told his followers. “I have always been transparent with my followers, and this is part of life.”

The statement said though they had decided to go their separate ways romantically, the two still had much respect for each other and were committed to remaining in a good relationship, at minimum, for their kids.

A Long Relationship with Mireddys González

Their separation, after being together for more than two decades, has understandably left fans heartbroken, as they were seen as a solid couple in the public eye.

His last tour, “La Última Vuelta,” celebrated his innovative contributions to reggaeton and Latin music, leaving behind a legacy of international acclamation.

While moving into this new phase of life, after the divorce and retirement, it is apparent that Daddy Yankee is still in for his family and self-improvement. This divorce from González will surely bring their era to a close, but all fans pray that both of them will have further happiness in life after this incident.
