She is a famous model and singer, mostly renowned for being the only daughter of Mexican icon Vicente Fernandez, though not biologically related. Alejandra Fernandez is an esteemed part of the Latin American music industry. With her spouse, she has put out many albums and their fame is growing quickly.

Alejandra Fernandez, a Mexican fashion designer and model, earned her degree in fashion design from a country school. As a fashion designer, she has created clothes for renowned Mexican labels and crafted luxury wallets for some of Mexico’s premier brands. Alejandra is the only and youngest child of Vicente Fernandez, though not born to him. When she was merely 40 days old, Vicente adopted her and did not reveal her adoption until she grew up to be much older.
She came into the spotlight when her father Vicente Fernandez was admitted to the hospital in a life-threatening state on August 6, 2021. Unfortunately, after a long struggle, he passed away on December 12, 2021, at 81 years old.
Why Was Alejandra Fernandez Adopted by Vicente Fernandez?
It is said that 40 days after she was born, Alejandra was taken in by the now-deceased Mexican artist. Supposedly, her birth mother, Gloria Abarca Villasenor, had left her in the care of Vicente and Maria.
As time passed, the bond between Vincente and Maria and the baby became strong. When Gloria came to collect her daughter at the age of four, Vicente and Maria were hit hard by the emotional distress. Vincente began to lose a lot of weight and Maria developed a problem with her voice. Gloria is said to have allowed her daughter to move in with the Fernandez family, given the state of Vicente and Maria’s declining health.
Personal Life
Alejandra Fernandez and José Luis Altamirona, a pianist, tied the knot in 2012 but split two years later. There was no mention of any child and no explanation for the dissolution of the marriage. The news of their divorce came as a shock to many when it was revealed in 2014.
Since her divorce, there have been many rumors about Alejandra’s love life, though she keeps her private matters to herself. As she has not been seen with anyone in public, it is likely that she has been single for a long time.
However, her ex-husband Jose found love again and married a woman named Gabriela Romero. The couple share a daughter.
