Lupillo Rivera family consists of six children. Lupillo Rivera and his former wife Mayeli Alonso were married from 2006 to 2019.
Though born in Long Beach, California, in the United States, Rivera is best known for being a singer in the Regional Mexican genre of music. Unlike many in the music business, Rivera’s dream was to be a restaurateur, but his father pushed him toward the music business.
The singer’s first job was to find talent in bars, but instead, he discovered that he was talented too, and started singing with the name El Torito. However, after success with his first album, Selena, La Estrella, he started using his real name from his sophomore album forward.
In his decades-long career, the singer has been nominated for the Grammy and Latin Grammy awards thrice each and has won the former once, back in 2010 for his album Tu Esclavo y Amo.

Ayana Rivera
Lupillo Rivera daughter Ayana Rivera is his eldest daughter and child. Sadly, she does not have a good relationship with her father.
One of the reasons why is that she was old enough to be aware of his divorce from her mother. Ayana is also currently in a feud with her uncle Juan and cousin Chiquis and even got a restraining order from the latter.
Aside from the feud, Ayana is a social media influencer and model who has over 239K followers on her Instagram.
Abigail Rivera
Abigail Rivera is the second oldest daughter and child in the Rivera family. As with her older sister, she comes from Lupillo’s first marriage.
Like her sister, Abigail was also old enough to bear the brunt of her parent’s dysfunctional marriage and did not have much of a positive relationship with her father after the divorce. However, unlike Ayana, she has let him back into her life to some degree.
One of the main ways is by letting Lupillo be a part of her children’s lives. Abigail’s children are:
- Alanna Janelle
- Aria Elena
Angélica Marin
Angelica Marin is the third daughter and child Lupillo had with Gorola. Unlike her elder sisters, she has a good relationship with he father.
However, Angelica has managed to keep her ties with her sisters too. The reason why she has a different last name is that she is married to Dean Marin, with whom she also has two children, both sons, whose names she hasn’t publicized.
Areana Perez
Areana Perez is the youngest child from Lupillo’s first marriage. Like Angelica, she has a good relationship with her father.
Areana’s similarities with Angelica don’t end there, as she is also happily married to her husband, Florencio Perez, and has two children with him:
- Romeo, their son
- Mia, their daughter
Lupita Karizma Rivera
Karizma Rivera is the first child that Lupillo had with his second wife, Mayeli Alonso. Karizma is 18 years old and was born on August 4, 2004.

L’Rey Rivera
Lastly, L’Rey Rivera is Lupillo’s youngest child and only son. L’Rey is 14 years old and was born on August 8, 2008.
Despite being born to Alonso, the boy has little contact with his mother and lives with his father and his new wife, Giselle Soto. L’Rey’s lack of contact with his mother is actually one of the biggest reasons behind Lupillo’s feud with his second ex-wife.
Lupillo Rivera Parents

Rivera was born to his parents on January 30, 1972, and his age is currently 51 years old. As stated above, he was born in Long Beach California, and he studied at Long Beach Polytechnic High School from where he graduated in 1990.
Pedro Rivera
Lupillo Rivera father Pedro Rivera is 79 years old. Pedro is a Mexican singer and actor who was born on February 23, 1943 in La Barca, Jalisco.
Pedro once owned his own recording label and studio called Cintas Acuario, and the reason why he pushed his son to quit his dreams of being a restaurateur was so he could succeed him in the business.
Rosa Rivera
Lupillo Rivera mother Rosa Rivera is 78 years old. Rosa is a Mexican media personality who was born on April 18, 1944, in Hermosillo, Sonora.
Rosa and Pedro were married in 1963, and their marriage officially lasted until 2008. However, from 2001 to 2007, Pedro was in a relationship with Erika Alonso.
