A.B. Quintanilla is the late Selena Quintanilla’s brother and a former band member. A.B. contributed significantly to Selena y Los Dinos’ status as the “Queen of Tejano music” by serving as the band’s bass player, composer, and producer. A.B. was shattered and the band disbanded after her sad death in 1995 at the hands of her “greatest admirer,” Yolanda Saldivar.
He has, nevertheless, created a thriving profession as a producer, composer, and musician through the years, as well as a fascinating personal life. In the biographical Netflix show ‘Selena: The Series,’ we only meet A.B.’s first marriage, yet he married four more times. Rikkie Leigh Robertson was one of A.B.’s five wives over the years. Let’s delve a little deeper and learn more about A.B’s ex-girlfriend.
Who is A.B. Quintanilla’s Ex-Wife?
When A.B. married his first wife, Evangelina “Vangie” Almeida, he was 24 years old. Vangie was there to see the family’s difficult moments while pursuing their musical goal, according to A.B. The couple married in 1988, before Selena became a sensation. The band was also constantly on the road, and Vangie would frequently accompany them. Svani, the couple’s first child, was born in 1991, and Gianni, the couple’s second, was born in 2000.
Regrettably, they divorced the following year. A.B. and Vangie had a turbulent marriage that saw Selena’s and then A.B.’s ascent to popularity, as well as the singing icon’s horrible murder. A.B. married actress Heather Grein in 2002 after his divorce from Vangie. The couple had two sons together before divorcing. He eventually married long-time lover Rikkie Leigh Robertson on November 12, 2011.
