Attorney Heileene Colberg Birriel, the legal representative of Raymond Ayala, known worldwide as Daddy Yankee, confirmed on Tuesday the start of divorce proceedings between the singer/rapper and his wife, Mireddys González.
“In light of the accumulation of calls and emails received, the following statements are issued. As legal representative of Raymond Ayala, known artistically as Daddy Yankee, I confirm that this process is beginning,” Colberg Birriel said in a statement.
The attorney emphasized the respect that her client maintains toward González and underscored his desire to preserve the intimacy and privacy of the marriage.
“For a long time my client tried unsuccessfully to bridge the [marital] differences,” she said. “But in September 2024, Mr. Ayala was notified through Ms. González’s legal representative of her decision to divorce, and private efforts were also made that also did not have the expected results.”
The legal representative stressed that the case filed represents the only available route and that they are committed to the confidentiality required by this type of legal process.
“As a legal office, dedicated mainly to family law, we take seriously the ethical and professional responsibility of fully complying with the confidentiality that is imposed by law on this type of case,” she said. “The understanding and respect of the media is requested during this process and when there is something to report, it will be done.”
Daddy Yankee and Mireddys González have been married for more than 25 years and have kept their personal lives largely out of the public eye. The artist is recognized as one of the pioneers and leading exponents of the urban genre worldwide.
