The model/influencer is also known for her involvement with the family feud that has been rocking the Riveras. Alongside her sister, Abigail, Ayana has an ongoing feud with the Riveras – mostly with uncle Juan Rivera and cousin Chiquis Rivera, Jenni Rivera’s daughter. She even got a restraining order against Chiquis, whom she alleged went to Abigail’s home to threaten her.
Ayana’s latest claim is that her uncle Juan Rivera and her aunt, Rosie Rivera, are trying to live off Jenni and Lupillo’s money. Juan Rivera has continually denied the accusations leveled against him.

Aria Elena, her other daughter, was born with her present partner Edgar. The two got together when Alanna was just 5 months old. Abigail is also stepmom to twin daughters Esmeralda and Isabella, who are Edgar’s daughters.
Although she is active on social media, she isn’t much of an influencer as compared to her older sister. Abigail also has a YouTube account where she posts videos of herself singing and playing the guitar.
Abigail was also deeply involved in the family scandal that rocked the Riveras. She publicly accused Rosie and Juan Rivera of beating up her mom, saying that she witnessed the incident when she was six years old. She also accused her cousin Chiquis of having an affair with her stepfather Esteban Loaiza, claiming that there was a threesome between Esteban, Chiquis, and one of Jenni Rivera’s friends Elena.
Lupillo, as expected, became quite fed up with the family drama and chose to cut ties with his family. At one point, he was in communication with just his father, choosing to wash his hands off the bitter fights going on via social media.
It is interesting to note that Lupillo was estranged from his older daughters for several years after his divorce from their mom in 2005. Presently, they seem to have reconciled their differences as Lupillo has a visible presence in his grandchildren’s lives.

L’Rey has not been involved in a scandal so far. We cannot say for sure if he will be joining the family business in the future, but for now, the young man is enjoying the privileges that come with being the only son of Lupillo Rivera.
Who Is José Guadalupe, The Son That Wasn’t Lupillo Rivera’s?
Apart from his six biological children, Lupillo once had a son named José Guadalupe. This happened during his first marriage. Lupillo was informed that he had a son out of wedlock with Luz Galindo. He provided financial support for José for twelve years, before discovering that the boy wasn’t his.
In a surprising twist of fate, a DNA test to determine Lupillo’s future heir was what exposed the paternity fraud. At that period, Mayeli was pregnant or had already given birth to their son, thus necessitating the test. Despite the negative paternity test, Lupillo continued providing for José Guadalupe till he was 18 years.
The Rivera Family Feud has Been Ongoing Since 2012
The Rivera family feud has been going on for quite some time now. Ever since Jenni Rivera died in a tragic plane crash in 2012, the family seems to be divided across many frontlines. From accusations of theft, drug abuse, violence against each other, and even death threats.
If we narrow it down to the feud between Lupillo Rivera’s kids, Ayana and Abigail, and the extended family, we see that Juan Rivera and their cousins Chiquis and Jenicka are the main culprits. It all started when Ayana accused some family members of opening fake accounts on social networks to attack their father Lupillo.
According to Abigail, they knew it was family members because some of the information published was very private, and only family members have access to this information. Chiquis Rivera sided with her uncle, Juan, on this issue, causing a rift between her and her cousins. It was during this period that Abigail came out to talk about Rosie and Juan Rivera beating up her mom, and also accused Chiquis of having a threesome with her stepfather, Esteban Loaiza.
The Feud Took Another Dimension in 2018
Things got to a head when in April 2018, cousins Chiquis and Jenicka Rivera were accused of going to Abigail’s house at 2:30 am and shouting at her to come out and resolve their issues. Abigail claimed that her cousins were drunk at the time and she could not leave her frightened daughter alone in the house to confront the two.
When questioned about this Chiquis denied the accusation, saying she is open to reconciliation. She, however, mentioned that she was furious about some private messages she read on her Instagram account. Chiquis had also been accused of sending a man to beat someone who had nude photos of her brother Juan Ángel (Juan Ángel later came out as gay in November 2017). At present, Ayana and Abigail claim to have placed a restraining order on Chiquis.
There Have Been Accusations of Threat to Life Among Lupillo Rivera’s Kids
The battle is not yet over as Ayana is also accusing Juan of being a drug addict and trying to live off Jenni’s money. The accusation had Juan’s wife Brenda and the kids involved in a feud, with one of Jenni’s daughters, Jenicka Rivera, coming out to claim that her life was being threatened.
One of Lupillo Rivera’s kids, Juan Rivera held a press conference in January 2022 addressing the problems he has had with his late sister’s children. He also talked about the problems he has with his brother Lupillo. However, he never owed up to any of the allegations.
Lupillo Rivera Got Secretly Married to Giselle Soto
Lupillo Rivera’s third wife is Giselle Soto, a businesswoman who owns Giselle Soto Brows, a well-known eyebrow company. According to Soto, they met during the covid-19 pandemic, when Lupillo called her on Instagram. She also claimed that it was love at first sight when they finally met.
The couple got married in secret in a private ceremony in January 2021, after a lot of speculations among fans on their relationship. Despite the 23-year age gap between the two, they appear to be enjoying their union. But for now, Lupillo Rivera and Giselle Soto have no child together, however, the couple share their home with Lupillo’s son L’Rey.
