The oldest of five children, she is the daughter of Jenni Rivera and José Trinidad Marín. In the late ‘90s it was discovered that Chiquis’ father molested her, and her sister and aunt as well. He left the family and ran from police for nine years, before being arrested in 2006 and sentenced to 31 years in prison without parole.
Chiquis made her first film appearance in the reality show “Chiquis & Raq-C”, which followed her mother Jenni, herself and Chiquis friend Raq-C, a radio personality. The following year she made an appearance in her mother’s show “I Love Jenni” (2011-2013). Unfortunately, her mother died in a plane crash while returning from a concert in Monterey to Toluca; according to reports, the plane nose-dived at speeds of approximately 700 mph, scattering fragments as far as 300 meters from the crash site.
Despite the tragic loss, Chiquis continued her career as a television personality, appearing in her own-produced shows “Chiquis n’ Control” in 2012, and in 2016, “The Riveras”, which focuses on Chiquis and her siblings’ life after the death of their mother.
Back in 2014, Chiquis also launched her singing career, debuting with her single “Paloma Blanca”, a tribute to her mother. The following year she released the album “Ahora”, which topped the US Top Latin and US Regional Mexican Albums Charts, while it reached No. 82 on the US Billboard 200 chart, so achieving gold status in the USA, which considerably increased Chiquis’ net worth.
Since then, she has released her second album “Entre Botellas”, but the album didn’t achieve the popularity of its predecessor, nevertheless, it still added a significant amount to her net worth.
When it comes to her personal life, Chiquis didn’t speak with her mother from October 2012, until her death. This left a big mark on Chiquis, and in 2015 she released a memoir called “Forgiveness”, in which she revealed their strained relationship, the reason being Chiquis’ alleged affair with Esteban Loaiza, which she denied.
To speak of her love life, back in 2012 she was in a relationship with Ángel Del Villar, while most recently she revealed to the public that she is in a relationship with Lorenzo Méndez, a famed musician and singer with the group La Original Banda El Limon.
