El Chapo's wife Emma Coronel Aispuro to join VH1 reality show 'Cartel Crew' and get candid on life after drug lord's arrest
Infamous Mexican drug lord Joaquin 'El Chapo' Guzman's beauty queen wife, Emma Coronel Aispuro, will join the VH1 reality TV show, 'Cartel Crew', as revealed by The Daily Mail.
VH1 executives confirmed that Emma Coronel Aispuro will appear on the show's season 2. The confirmation comes around a week after pictures show Aispuro and a cast member, Michael Blanco, the son of 'Cocaine Godmother' Griselda Blanco meeting on a yacht in Miami.
The meeting will be shown in an exclusive promo from Aispuro's first episode on the show. The episode is all set to air on November 18. 'Cartel Crew' shows the lives of eight reality stars with deep family ties and connections to the drug world as they attempt to make a name for themselves outside the world of crime.
Aispuro is the wife of El Chapo who married him in 2007. She will make 'several appearances' on the show and will get candid on her life after the drug lord was jailed as well as her 'upcoming business venture'.
Recently, 'Cartel Crew' did an exclusive interview with Blanco, which will air on Tuesday. Blanco had starred in season 1 of the show that had released in January. During an episode in February, Blanco was seen mourning the loss of his drug lord mother, Griselda, who had been assassinated on September 3, 2012, in Medellin, Colombia.
Griselda had a net worth of around $2 billion when she was killed and was also known as La Madrina (The Black Widow). She had helped to pioneer the Miami-based cocaine drug trade during the 80s and had paved the way for others such as El Chapo. Chapo was the co-founder of the Sinaloa Cartel who was sentenced to prison in July after being found guilty to many crimes such as conspiracy to murder.
