Being the son of famous songwriter Luisito Rey, Luis Miguel has always known that he would end up as a musician. Thus, as the 1980s was ushered in, he dropped his debut album which launched him into fame. Towards the end of the decade, he met Stephanie Salas, the woman who would become the mother of his first daughter.
Talking to ¡Hola!, Stephanie revealed that the famous singer treated her well when she got in the family way, he told Stephanie not to worry, that she won’t lack anything as he was there to take care of them.
Although Luis wasn’t always part of the baby’s life, Stephanie relied on the full support of her mother, Sylvia Pasquel, and grandmother, Silvia Pinal, to raise her first daughter.
Eventually, when the baby who was called Michelle Salas arrived on the 13 of June 1989 there was little or no relationship between father and daughter. Luis Miguel never deemed it necessary to give his daughter his last name, thus, she started answering her mother’s last name, Salas.
The rocky start of their relationship made it fodder for gossip tabloids for years. With that said, the media and the general public were privy to the kind of father-daughter relationship between Luis and Michelle and demanded that the singer maintains some kind of affinity with them.
Michelle on her own part didn’t want to acknowledge Luis Miguel either, she kept saying her birth is a result of her mum’s relationship with an anonymous man. However, reports said El Sol de Mexico just wanted to keep Michelle a secret, though he has always been aware of her existence and sent her gifts.
Michelle Spent Her Growing Up Years with her Mom’s Family
Eventually, Luis Miguel’s only daughter spent her formative years under the watch of her mother and maternal family members. To date, the model gives her mother credit for raising her as well as giving her a good life. Describing the type of life she lived as a growing child, Michelle said she lacked nothing and it is all thanks to her mother’s family.
Talking about her father, Michelle stated she only found out about him around age three. It was her mother who decided that she could understand things at that age. Describing her feelings at the discovery, Luis’ only daughter said it was rather strange but was something that she must know sooner or later. According to the social media influencer, you just don’t get it when you are young.
Michelle made a public plea for her dad to reconsider how he had treated her throughout her life during a 2005 interview with Quién magazine. She revealed that she stopped seeing him when she was 6 and said she wished he was more understanding of her feelings since he also didn’t come from a stable family. “I’m not asking for a whole life,” she said. “I just want him to give me five minutes so he can explain his reasons to me. For him to tell me what happened and that’s it!”
Many believe that it was that interview that inspired the “Si Nos Dejan” singer to reconnect with her after so many years.
Michelle has Finally Taken Her Place as The Singer’s First Child
Luis Miguel legally recognized Michelle as his daughter in 2007. He was 37 years old at the time and she was 18. There was a paternity test involved that pretty much made it impossible for him or anyone else to deny that Michelle is indeed his daughter and always has been.
In 2011, it was reported that the singer had officially given his daughter his last name and she was now legally Michelle Gallego Salas. Still, even if he didn’t give her his last name at long last, she’d still be known as Michelle Salas.
Many People Contributed to Luis Miguel’s Improved Relationship With Michelle
Luis Miguel was in a 1989 interview with Veronica Castro when the singer said “he didn’t have any offspring as far as he knew ”this happened a few months after he welcomed his first child Michelle Salas.
According to his first baby mama, Stephanie, Miguel became involved in Michelle’s life at three months until the girl was six. He was always present and their relationship blossomed, however, she knew deep down that his career, concerts, and albums will always come first. She made this statement to ¡Hola! in February 2018.
With that said, speculations about Luis’ relationship with his only daughter made headlines for several years. Fans couldn’t help but wonder if the El Sol de Mexico would ever acknowledge his daughter’s existence.
The father/daughter relationship remained complicated through the years which triggered Stephanie’s grandmother, Silvia Pinal to write a strong-worded letter to the famous Mexican singer. The message got to Miguel through a friend who urged The “La Bikina” singer to try reconnecting with his daughter.
However, according to Silvia, she can’t tell exactly what the letter accomplished because she never saw Luis, she wasn’t interested in seeing him and didn’t care either. Her only interest was for the man to contact his child.
When Luis Miguel finally recognized his daughter, the media was quick to point out Aracely’s (Miguel’s wife then) role in making it happen. Michelle later confessed that Aracely supported her dad in taking the decision and also push the singer into having more contact with her.
Michelle Is Now A Recognized Member of Luis Miguel’s family
Since Luis Miguel started having constant contact with his only daughter, the relationship between the two has greatly improved. In recent times, it was revealed that The “La Bikina” singer is already spoiling Michelle with expensive gifts, he just presented the model with his Quartz Hill property in LA California.
The landed property which worth is estimated at a whopping $108 million dollars is said to be a plush one. According to Basta! ownership of the real estate has already changed and Michelle is listed as the new owner.
Prior to the gift bequeath, Luis Miguel’s daughter had perfected all documents for a name change; reports said she was already bearing her father’s last name as of September 2009 and those were the names she used in the docs for the Quartz Hill property
From what is obvious, father and daughter are now so close that Luis finds himself in a position to dish out advice to Michelle who once spoke about the best advice she ever received from her father. According to the model, blogger, and social media star, Luis told her that having discipline is very important and what you are or what you do may not matter.
The Sun of Mexico also told his only daughter that “The key to success is inherent in the timing, the moment, plus figuring out your own method.”
Talking about her dad’s ex-wife, Aracely Arámbula, Michelle said she hardly know much about the actress except for her role in the TV show, Amigas y Rivales. Luis’ daughter revealed that she only got to know who Arámbula was after seeing her in Quién.
When quizzed on the possibility of meeting the actress, Michelle said she had no comment on the subject. Going on, the model emphasized that she has no interest in meeting her dad’s second baby mama and doesn’t even care.
