Overview
- In recent Miami family-court hearings, Nicolás “Colate” Vallejo-Nágera testified that Paulina Rubio assaulted him during their marriage and said he has evidence, a claim Rubio disputes.
- The couple’s 15-year-old son told the judge he wants to live with his father in Madrid, putting a potential relocation at the center of the case.
- A court-appointed guardian ad litem, who reports the child’s views to the judge, relayed the teen’s claim that his mother “smokes marijuana,” but court toxicology results for Rubio were reported negative.
- The judge ordered both parents to pay about $14,500 each for the guardian’s fees or face contempt proceedings that could lead to arrest if they do not comply.
- Rubio issued a public statement stressing that motherhood guides her decisions and asked for privacy for her son, as the court considers a ruling in the coming weeks that will hinge on the child’s preference, parental fitness, and household stability.
