Marriage to Jackie Guerrido

In 2008, Don Omar married Puerto Rican television weather forecaster and journalist Jackie Guerrido. They became a high-profile couple in the Latin entertainment scene, often attracting media attention. The couple announced their engagement in 2007, but rumors soon circulated about issues in their marriage, including speculation that Guerrido was pregnant — a claim later dismissed.

By 2009, reports began to surface about growing tensions in the relationship. Don Omar publicly denied the rumors at the time and threatened legal action against those spreading misinformation. Nevertheless, the rumors persisted, and in 2011, he confirmed on Twitter that he and Guerrido had officially divorced after three years of marriage.

Divorce and Settlement

According to reports, Jackie Guerrido received approximately $3.7 million as part of the divorce settlement. Don Omar reportedly chose not to dispute the settlement amount, and publicly stated that although the marriage had ended, he held no anger in his heart. He described their romance as a "fairy tale" that had simply not worked out in the long term.

The couple did not have any children together, which helped avoid custody-related complications. Sources noted that the separation process was relatively smooth, despite the media speculation. However, people close to the couple claimed they had doubts about the relationship's longevity from the beginning.

Rumors and Media Speculation

Following the divorce, Don Omar faced various rumors linking him to several women, including singers Ambar and Natti Natasha. Both women firmly denied any romantic involvement. Natti Natasha publicly stated that Don Omar was like a father figure to her, while Ambar emphasized that professional relationships between men and women should not be misunderstood. Don Omar neither confirmed nor denied these allegations.

There was also unconfirmed speculation about a relationship between Jackie Guerrido and journalist Jorge Ramos. Some sources alleged that this connection contributed to her separation from Don Omar. Both Guerrido and Ramos denied the claims, and there is no credible evidence supporting the notion of infidelity. Despite widespread reporting, they were not seen together after their respective separations, which led many to consider the rumors unfounded.

Social Media Controversy

In 2011, a particularly controversial incident occurred when Don Omar allegedly posted a tweet directed at Guerrido, stating that he would publicly disrespect her if she did not resume communication within three days. Guerrido did not respond publicly but noted that her legal team would manage the situation. The post was widely criticized and later deleted.

Life After Divorce

In December 2013, Don Omar was seen with an unidentified woman during his tours, sparking speculation that he was in a new relationship. While he did not officially announce a new partner, sources close to the artist suggested that the relationship was serious. The woman chose to remain anonymous and did not disclose personal details about their relationship.

Despite the media attention surrounding both his personal and professional life, Don Omar has continued to maintain his legacy as one of the most successful Latin music artists, playing a significant role in the global growth of reggaeton.
