Once the sentence is final, Mayela Laguna's son will simply be called Apolo, as the Guzmán surname will be removed. Luis Enrique Guzmán's lawyer, Rebeca Ortiz, explained that the appeal process led by Mayela is expected to take about 15 business days. Both the defense and the singer were calm and satisfied with the resolution of the case, prioritizing respect for the judicial decision.
Luis Enrique Guzmán expressed his agreement with the judge's decision, highlighting that justice prevailed. Regarding his relationship with Apolo, he mentioned that he will maintain his distance for the time being and only the future will determine how his interaction with the child will be. For her part, Mayela Laguna pointed out that she sees the ruling as a closure to the legal conflict with her ex-partner, emphasizing discretion and privacy in her son's situation.
After a year of revealing that Apolo was not his biological son, Luis Enrique Guzmán began a legal battle against Mayela Laguna, the boy's mother. Recently, a judge confirmed that Silvia Pinal's son has no paternal link to the musician and, consequently, the latter will have no legal obligations towards the child. Once the judicial decision was confirmed, the surname Guzmán will be removed from Apolo.
In a press conference after the trial, Luis Enrique Guzmán and his lawyer explained that solid evidence was presented that dismissed any biological relationship between him and Apolo. The DNA test, which was the subject of debate on a television program, was confirmed by the lawyer as reliable and consistent, reaffirming the nullity of Guzmán's paternity towards the child.
The singer expressed feeling relieved with the judicial resolution, describing the entire legal process as a nightmare. After a year and a half of uncertainty, Guzmán stated that he was pleased with the clarity and strength of the evidence that freed him from a situation he considered a "disgusting deception."
