Karol G is a well-known artist who has achieved remarkable success, including two Latin GRAMMY awards and 199 Diamond certifications from the RIAA in the United States.

Undoubtedly she is a top-selling artist, but despite her ability to shatter records and being the first female artist to debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 with a Spanish-language album, when it comes to family, she is simply Carolina — a devoted daughter and sister who values the importance of having a solid support system.

Besides Father’s Day, I always spend time with my parents and bring them anywhere I go so they can enjoy the fruits of the labor.”

Beyond topping charts, this is one of the legacies I would like to leave behind,” she assures. “This is my testimony, and I hope it inspires another dad to be the same.”

Recently, Karol was also promoted to aunt!

How is Carolina as an aunt?

“I’m the best!” she assured HOLA! USA. “With my other sister, we always try to demonstrate who is the best ‘tia’ because we love her. To be honest, the baby brought happiness to my home. My parents are crazy in love with her. She brought a special vibe and magnified all the happiness already in us.”
