Daddy Yankee and Mireddys met when they were in high school, at the age of 17, and have since become inseparable.

2007 – El Show de Cristina

In 2007, Yankee was a guest on El Show de Cristina, where he went to promote his album El Cartel: The Big Boss. In the audience, Mireddys proudly watched as her husband talked about a song on the album, “Todos Quieren a Raymond,” that he wrote for those who like to gossip and to deny tabloid news that would cause problems in his relationship.

2008 – Detrás de La Fama

In an interview with Telemundo’s Detrás de la Fama, Yankee talked about a “cruel entertainment world” and the only private thing he has is his family. He briefly talked about his marriage with host Rashel Diaz: “It has been very difficult, but behind the success of a good man there is always a good woman. She has been with me from the beginning and deserves the best of me. She was with me at a time when no one believed in me and I didn’t know what the future held. She sought me out for who I am, for my essence,” he gushed.

2021 – The Billboard Cover Story

In 2021, Daddy Yankee graced the cover of Billboard, ahead of headlining the 2021 Billboard Latin Music Week. Mireddys was present at the cover shoot and interview in Puerto Rico. “‘She’s the boss. She has always been the boss,” he says with a smile. “(Later, I’ll catch the two of them chatting on the hotel balcony, Yankee whispering in her ear as her hands encircle his waist, as if they’re still teenagers.),” Billboard’s Leila Cobo wrote in the cover story. 

2022 – “Para Siempre”

2022 – Rare Mireddys Interview

That same year, Mireddys was a guest on “Las Más Perras” podcast, where she briefly talked about supporting Daddy Yankee’s career and being his manager. “Behind him, next to him, I’m there, and that’s what’s important,” she said. “I like to work because I come from a hard-working family.” During the interview, she also admitted that she loves to clean and organize the house. “It’s a big house, and it’s only the two of us now because our kids are grown and moved out,” she noted. 

2023 – Social Media Celebrations

2024 – The Divorce

In December, Yankee announced that “after months of trying to save his marriage,” Mireddys filed for divorce. “This is not an easy time, but I understand that it is part of my life process,” he expressed in a heartfelt letter. This year, Daddy Yankee has also been devoted to his faith and beliefs. He opened up about his new life chapter during his four back-to-back farewell concerts in Puerto Rico in late 2022.
