Daddy Yankee & Mireddys González Call It Quits After 29 Years: Reggaeton Power Couple Unplug Their Boom Box

Buy Me A Coffee

Daddy Yankee, the reggaeton legend who made us all bop like maniacs, and his wife, Mireddys González, are splitting up after an impressive 29-year run as a power couple. That’s longer than most iPhone chargers last.

The 48-year-old superstar broke the news on his Instagram Stories (because where else do you announce life-changing events these days?) in a heartfelt message that was equal parts emotional and lawyer-approved.

“With a heart full of respect and honesty, I want to share some important news about my personal life,” he began. And you just know when someone starts with that line, it’s not to announce they’ve mastered sourdough baking.

He continued, “After more than two decades of marriage and months of trying to save my marriage, which my wife and I share”—as opposed to what, a marriage they rented?—“today my lawyers responded to the divorce petition received from Mireddys.”

Yes, people, Mireddys filed the paperwork. It looks like this wasn’t Daddy Yankee hitting the eject button but rather his now-estranged wife deciding it was time to tune out the reggaeton beat.

The duo tied the knot way back in 1995 when they were just 17, presumably after realizing they were better at building a life together than figuring out what to major in during college. Over the years, they raised three kids—Jesaaelys, Yamilet, and Jeremy—who are now in their late 20s. That’s right, this couple not only survived the 90s but also managed to raise three functional adults. That deserves its own Grammy, honestly.

“I respect Mireddys’ decision,” Daddy Yankee said, possibly while humming a sad reggaeton remix. “I appreciate the time we shared, full of blessings, values, love, and a beautiful family that will remain our priority.” And while it’s unclear what went wrong, it’s safe to say it wasn’t because of a disagreement over pineapple on pizza—these two seemed rock solid for nearly three decades.

Mireddys wasn’t just his wife but also his business partner, managing his career and running El Cartel Records like the CEO boss she is. Together, they built an empire, proving that couples who hustle together…sometimes split together.

Daddy Yankee ended his statement by asking for privacy during this time. “This will be my only statement,” he declared, leaving fans to analyze every future song lyric for hints. Will his next hit be called “Divorciado Pero Chillin’”? Only time will tell.

For now, let’s pour out some Gasolina (or a cup of café, depending on your vibe) for the end of an era. They may no longer be together, but their legacy as reggaeton’s ultimate power couple will live on forever.
