Kiko Rivera turns 40: the lights and shadows of Isabel Pantoja's versatile son

Kiko Rivera is one of the most popular faces in our country and today, February 9, he is celebrating. And the son of the tonadillera celebrates his 40th birthday this Friday. A very important day that he will spend with his loved ones, except for his mother, with whom he has not had any relationship for more than a year.

Furthermore, this birthday is going to be very special, since your last anniversary was marked by a serious health downturn. And the music producer had to spend the day of his birthday in the hospital due to renal colic, an obstruction of the urinary tract caused mainly by stones that cause acute pain in the side, waist or side. of the abdomen.

It was on February 9, 1984 when Isabel Pantoja gave birth to her first child, the result of her marriage to the bullfighter Francisco Rivera Paquirri. But Kiko Rivera's life was marked by tragedy from a very early age. And seven months after her birth, the Rivera-Pantoja family suffered the greatest loss: the death of Diestro at the age of 36 as a result of a goring suffered in the Pozoblanco bullring, in Córdoba. .

From that moment on, an unprecedented media war began between both families over the bullfighter's inheritance. A situation that caused a great distancing with his other two brothers on his father's side, Fran and Cayetano Rivera, with whom he barely had ties in his childhood, but who today maintain a cordial and excellent relationship.

However, Carmina Ordoñez's children are not the only fraternal ties that the artist has. The tonadillera adopted Isa Pantoja, better known as Chabelita, in 1996, when she was just one year old. The youngest of the family had a childhood away from the media spotlight and she was very well protected by both her mother and her brother.

But when he came of age, the situation in the family took a radical turn. And the music producer and his sister have been involved in several confrontations on more than one occasion, suggesting that their relationship was never as good as they seemed.

Kiko Rivera has not only given a lot of talk for his tough confrontations with his mother and sister. She has also done it thanks to her romantic relationships. And the son of the tonadillera has been a true conqueror during the last twenty years. But despite his long list of conquests, there have only been two women who have marked his life: Jessica Bueno and Irene Rosales.

The music producer met the model in Survivors, and as a result of their participation they began a stormy relationship, which lasted almost a year. But it wasn't all bad news for the couple, because in November 2021 they welcomed their first child together, Francisco.

However, the artist was going to find true happiness with Irene Rosales. The couple had their first daughter, Ana, in 2015, and a year later they said 'I do'. In February 2018, the couple welcomed their second daughter, Carlota.

Kiko Rivera's artistic career has been in tune with his television appearances. And her participation in different small screen formats, such as Big Brother or Survivors, helped build her public figure. Her popularity increased over time, which helped the tonadillera's son find her place in the world of music.

Thanks to his success and popularity, the producer was able to release several singles, his song El Mambo being one of his biggest hits with more than 40 million views. However, his various health problems have once again harmed his professional career. A few days ago, the artist announced through his social networks that his concert tour was paralyzed due to an emergency operation for a knee injury that he has been carrying for months.
