Look, no marriage is perfect, especially when one of you is a celebrity with a reputation for… let’s call it “colorful personal decisions.” Oscar had his public struggles with addiction and infidelity, which is like saying a car had a minor issue with the engine bursting into flames.

Oscar De La Hoya Y Millie Corretjer
Imagine waking up, scrolling your phone, and seeing your husband’s face on a tabloid for all the wrong reasons. You’d probably throw your phone across the room and yell, “I don’t get paid enough for this!” But Millie handled it with a grace most of us don’t have when we’re mad about someone leaving the toilet seat up. She didn’t go on a screaming rampage—she just quietly got divorced in 2016.
Now, she’s moved on. She’s still singing, still famous, and probably enjoying the fact that she can eat a full meal without someone talking about “cutting weight.” Meanwhile, Oscar is still Oscar—running his promotion company and occasionally giving interviews where he says he “has a lot of love” for her. You know, the classic ex-husband script.
