Netflix's Griselda features Sofia Vergara as Griselda, Juliana Aidén Martinez as June, Martín Rodríguez as Rivi, Karol G (aka Carolina Giraldo) as Carla, Vanessa Ferlito as Carmen and more in the leading roles. Since, you have landed on this page, True Scoop News assumes that you are already aware about Netflix's Griselda True Story and are wondering about Cocaine Godmother's lovelife. Below is everything you need to know about Griselda Blanco's three husband and their death-
Did Griselda Blanco kill all her husbands?
The answer is yes. As per reports, Griselda Blanco married thrice in her life. At first, Griselda became a sex-worker at the age of 12 or 13. During that phase, she married Carlos Trujillo. They married and had three children, but their relationship soured over business and therefore, Blanco reportedly killed Carlos, her first husband.
The second time, Griselda Blanco married Alberto Bravo. Griselda Blanco's second husband Alberto Bravo was a cocaine trafficker. As per reports, it was Alberto who brought her in the late 60s to Queens, New York. There they set up their smuggling empire, disguised by Bravo’s clothing import company. Blanco opened a woman’s underwear factory in Colombia that added secret compartments into the garments, so mules could smuggle coke into the US undetected. In the 70s, Blanco established her mega coke business empire in the USA.
While business was booming, Bravo & Blanco were smuggling their childhood friend Pablo Escobar's drugs inside the USA. However, during that phase, Griselda became addicted to basuco, a cocaine paste. When she was in Columbia, Griselda accused her husband Bravo of stealing millions from the business and shot him multiple times with a pistol hidden in her ostrich-skin boot. Thereafter, Blanco took over the entire business.
Talking about Griselda's third husband, she reportedly married a killer named Dario Sepulveda. Blanco and Dario Sepulveda had a son, named Michael Corleone Blanco. They moved to the US, this time to Miami – her face so worn from drug use that US officials didn’t recognize her. Finally, in 1983, Sepulveda left for Colombia, taking Michael Corleone with him. However, Griselda Blanco had Sepulveda killed by an assassin as he sat in his car next to his son.
