Did Ricky Martin & Jwan Yosef have an open marriage & thats why theyre divorcing?
Ricky Martin and Jwan Yosef announced their split last week. They were married in 2018 after being together since 2015. They seemed solid, although they never overshared about their marriage. I have no idea if this is going to be a big divorce battle, but the British and Spanish tabloids are convinced that the split was pretty dramatic. Days ago, the Mail spoke to a “friend” of Ricky and Jwan and the friend said that Ricky and Jwan had an open marriage and Ricky basically did whatever he wanted:
Ricky Martin and his soon-to-be ex-husband Jwan Yosef ‘had an open marriage’ that saw them ‘engaging in sex together and with other people’, a close friend of the singer has revealed. Livin’ La Vida Loca singer Ricky, 51, and Jwan, 38, announced this week that they were divorcing after six years together – and now an insider has revealed how the pair ultimately ‘fell out of love’ after years of enjoying an ‘open’ relationship, while insisting that infidelity was not a factor in their split.
‘Like many couples, Ricky and Jwan had an open relationship for most of their marriage and this worked for them, until it didn’t,’ the pal told DailyMail.com. ‘That being said, neither of them fell in love with someone else. Sex was something they engaged in together and separate with other partners. In the end they decided that it was best for them, their well being and for their kids if they end it amicably,’ the source went on – adding that the couple has a ‘tight prenup’ in place that will ensure Jwan is ‘taken care of forever’.
‘Ricky will likely keep the house but Jwan will remain an important part of his life, and their kids’ lives, moving forward. He will be taken care of forever and will not have to worry about his finances, at least until their children are all adults. Ricky knows the value of him being a father in their kids lives.’
According to the friend, Ricky and Jwan’s marriage came to an end after the pair realized that there was no longer any ‘passion’ between them, explaining: ‘Ultimately, they fell out of love. Their passion turned into a friendship and the sex became barely non-existent.’
Another issue facing the men, the source added, is the fact that Jwan felt that there was ‘huge imbalance’ between them – despite Ricky ‘always telling him was not the case’. ‘You cannot really hold a candle to a husband who is a world famous millionaire worth over $100 million,’ the insider shared. ‘Like in many marriages, Ricky was essentially the breadwinner while Jwan took care of the home and the kids while he was busy doing what Ricky does. [However this did] also work well for them because they each played an important role. The fact that Jwan is 13 years younger didn’t help. They were a generation apart and from different cultures.’
If their marriage was really like this, I’m astonished by the lack of gossip – if Ricky really had multiple, no-strings-attached partners, that means that no one talked for years and Ricky really has his personal life on lockdown. Speaking of, Marca thinks they know the identity of one of Ricky’s lovers: an adult-film actor named Max Barz. Apparently, Ricky and Max follow each other on social media and Ricky is “obsessed” with him. Hm. I wonder if Ricky is the kind of man who would only leave his spouse if he had a jumpoff waiting in the wings.
