Facts of Fausto Xavier Aguilera

Fausto Xavier Aguilera is famous as a father of five-time Grammy Awards and one-time Latin Grammy Award winner, American singer-songwriter Christina Aguilera. 

Fausto was a United States Army Soldier.

He was married to a musician

He tied the wedding knot with musician Shelly Loraine in 1980. 

The couple had to move to several places, including New Jersey, Texas, Japan, and New York, because of his military services. 

For Shelly, the problem between them started right after their marriage, and she became a sort of possession rather than a wife. They ended their marriage in 1987. 

What led their union to fall apart?

In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Christina confronted that her father Fausto was physically and emotionally abusive towards her mom, which made her feel disgusting about him and his behavior towards women. 

Later, in an interview with E!, she added witnessing a messy environment full of quarreling, pushing, fighting, making her feel unsafe while growing up. 

The pain at home gave birth to the love for music. Despite his abusive behaviors, Shelly was trying to save her marriage until a final stroke when he left four-year-old Christina in blood after trying to spank her that got missed just because she made a noise while he was taking a nap. 

Finally, she made the courage to leave him for the security of her kids. Later she remarried her second husband, Jim Kearns, in 1991, with whom she shares son Michael Kearns.

He was left heartbroken after the abuse allegations 

Fausto was left heartbroken after the abuse allegations made by his daughter, Christina. 

He did not deny being abusive to his then-wife but denied being abusive to his two daughters Christina and Rachel. 

According to him, he had a tense relationship with Shelly and had a lot of disagreements but loved his daughters and never abused them in any way. 

Did he reunite with his daughters?

After having an estranged relationship with his daughters for more than a decade, he briefly reunited with Christina in 2009. 

Later, in 2012, Christina considered giving a second chance to her father. 

In 2018, in an interview, his brother Johann who resides with him in Staten Island, New York, said that his brother Fausto has not been able to mend his now-fractured relationship with his daughter.
