So far it is not confirmed, but other artists and celebrities do have it, either because their parents are from a different country than their birthplace or because they applied formally. According to Milton Merlo, a journalist from ABC, the wife of AMLO, former president of Mexico, formally requested the Government of Spain to grant her nationality supposedly under the Democratic Memory Law of 2022. This law states that those born outside of Spain to a father or mother, grandfather or grandmother, who originally were Spanish have the right to nationality," published the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Spain.
The list of celebrities who requested (or have) dual nationality includes actress Kate del Castillo, singer Luis Miguel, and Enrique Guzmán, ex-husband of Silvia Pinal. However, not all are born in Mexico or requested Mexican nationality; there are other cases like Ricky Martin, who is Puerto Rican and also Spanish.
