However, a few years ago, a boy emerged who claimed to be El Puma’s son and who bears an enormous resemblance to the singer. A while ago, the singer opened up about it, affirming that it goes by his last name but affirming that it’s not his offspring.
“This boy is a brother’s son [Oswaldo] which is in Venezuela. My brother Oswaldo is very lovesick and he told me he recognized this boy. If he’s part of the family, I’m happy,” he told the Colombian newspaper El Tiempo in 1995. “If my brother recognized him, that means he goes by the last name. If you sing and want to make your life that way, welcome.”
