Before the death of Pablo, Maria never left him even if he cheated numerous times on her. She bore all the pain only for her children and her love. But after the death of Pablo, they had to face numerous controversies and rumors, so they started living a low profile life in Argentina by hiding their identity.

Love is unexplainable. While Pablo was of one of the most hated people in the world for his family he was a hero. For his wife, he was a gentleman.

“[He] was affectionate and sweet. A great lover. I fell in love with his desire to help people and his compassion for their hardship. We [would] drive to places where he dreamed of building schools for the poor. From [the] beginning, he was always a gentleman.”

Though the whole world breathe a sigh of relief after the death of Escobar, there was one family who was completely shattered.

After the death of Pablo, Maria along with her children went through a tough time moving on with their lives. Due to the bad reputation, the family had to suffer a lot. The Colombian government sealed all of their money.

They were also not accepted by the country because of the criminal records of Pablo. The family had to stay as a refugee in different countries as many countries refused to make them their citizen.

Moreover, after such humiliation and devastating situation, the family moved to Argentina and started living a low profile life in a flat by changing their names and identity.

But in 1990 Henao and her son Juan Pablo were arrested for money laundering and imprisoned in Argentina for many months. After the release, she told the media that she was arrested because of his past life.

“I am a prisoner in Argentina for being Colombian. They want to try the ghost of Pablo Escobar because they want to prove that Argentina is combatting drug trafficking.”

As of now, the family is living a better life but is staying far from the limelight and media. They are hiding from the world to be free from any controversies. Maria is currently single and not married to anyone.

 

We wish this family best wishes for their future endeavors.
