Wisin revealed to Puerto Rico’s Lo Sé Todo that his newborn daughter was born with the genetic disorder of trisomy 13. The 37-year-old star said that his wife is suffering from depression because of the entire situation that the family is facing.
“We’re going through a difficult moment,” he said to the show. “It’s things that happen.”
The genetic disorder includes a combination of birth defects, this includes severe intellectual disability, as well as health problems involving nearly every organ system in the body, according to Stanford Children’s Health.
As soon as the news surfaced, fans and celebrities sent supportive messages to the star.
Nicky Jam shared words of encouragement with a photo of the artist and a message in Spanish. “Here praying for your baby, who is an angel from God. We have to leave it in his hands because he never fails us. I love you, papa, and I know that God loves you more and that your baby will come out of this.”
Wisin has attended all of his scheduled concerts but asks for privacy about this matter.
