But this is just one chapter in the 37-year-old’s storied past, which has seen her navigate the dark world of drug cartels and the intense spotlight of boxing fame.

While she now spends her time creating content for her 80,000 followers on Instagram, the mother of three has gone through a lot to get to where she is today.

What was Frida Munoz’s early life like?

Frida first came into the spotlight when she started a relationship with Edgar Guzman Lopez, the son of Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman.

During their youth in Mexico, the couple was heavily involved, resulting in the birth of their daughter in 2006.

But in 2008, Frida’s life was turned upside down when Edgar was murdered by a rival cartel.

Now a widow, Frida continued to raise her daughter, Frida Guzman Munoz, alone, despite the intense scrutiny she was under due to her former connection with El Chapo.

When did Frida and Chavez Jr meet?

The couple met after her former flame, Edgar Guzman, had died, while Frida tried to rebuild her life.

They have two children together, Julia and Julio Cesar Chavez III.

However, their marriage has faced many hurdles as Chavez Jr battled substance abuse, which he publicly blamed Frida for.

In 2016, the former world champion accused Frida of kidnapping their daughter. He believed she had been kidnapped after Frida took her to a different country without his knowledge.

Chavez Sr had to step in to confirm that Frida had not done so, but the incident only mounted pressure on their relationship.

Legal Troubles

During her marriage to Chavez Jr, Frida found herself embroiled in a public scandal after she was faced with legal challenges from Mexican authorities, in 2015.

During this time, the Mexican authorities froze her bank accounts as part of a wider investigation to find her former partner’s father El Chapo, who had escaped from prison.

It took until 2018 for her cards to be unfrozen, but her public image took a mighty hit due to her connection with these illicit activities.

Nowadays, Frida is focused on creating a semblance of normalcy for her children while also balancing her time as an influencer.
