Biographie

In 1974, she met Venezuelan singer/comedian Raúl Vale, whom she married in April 1975 in the first wedding to be televised in Mexico. That year she broke records in New York when her show was sold out twice in the same day at the Madison Square Garden. This record has not yet been broken. In November 1975 her daughter, the international actress, comedienne, singer, and impersonator Angélica Vale, was born.

In 2003 Angelica Maria, negotiating with a major publishing house, launched an autobiography which would release the lesser known aspects of her life as an actress and a woman. It was published by Reader's Digest in November 2005.

She is fluent in Spanish, English, French.
