La Joaqui took part this Friday in a new episode of Otro día perdido, the El Trece program hosted by Mario Pergolini, and led an intimate discussion about her family history, motherhood, and the dreams she keeps for her personal life.
During the interview, the singer recalled how the arrival of her daughters transformed her view of the world and explained why forming a family has always been one of her greatest desires. With the spontaneity that characterizes her, she also spoke about childhood experiences that shaped her present as a mother.
“It changed my life. I thought that God, energy, heaven—I thought that something beyond me was giving me the opportunity to have the family I was seeking,” she said while recalling the start of her motherhood.
La Joaqui spoke about her daughters and her family history
The artist made clear that motherhood represented an opportunity to build the family model she had desired since she was a girl. In previous interviews, she had said that her parents were divorced even before her birth, an experience that is part of her personal history.
La Joaqui has two daughters, Shaina and Eva, and spoke about both during the chat with Pergolini. “I have them, no doubt. Later I had another daughter, with a different father,” she said when referring to her experience as a mom.
When talking about her youngest daughter, the singer shared a detail about her personality: “She is seven. She is very funny, Scorpio like me.”
During the interview, Pergolini also asked about her bond with the parents of her daughters and her expectations for family life. La Joaqui was candid in explaining that her desire to form a home of her own remains current and that she does not consider it incompatible with her autonomy.
La Joaqui, íntima: “Quiero construir la familia que no tuve de chica. Lo que no tuve como hija, lo voy a tener como mamá”.

“I wanted to be a mom. The truth is yes, I would love the Ingalls family. Since I was a girl my dream has been to get married and have five children, I love it. It’s not a dream that takes away my power,” she stated.
The singer expanded on that idea and defended her right to choose the kind of life she wants to build, without it contradicting her beliefs. “It is not a dream that takes away my power or independence nor does it make me less feminist; the reality is that I want to build the family I didn’t have when I was a girl,” she stated.
With those words, she made it clear that for her the desire to share life with a partner and have a family does not entail giving up her personal projects or her independence.
“This is what I aspire to, this is what I seek; I enjoy sharing life. I like family life, I enjoy Sunday barbecues, and I want to give myself that. I didn’t have it as a girl, and what I didn’t have as a daughter I want to have as a mother,” she added, to the ovation of the audience.
La Joaqui’s dream for her future
Throughout the discussion, the artist blended humor, spontaneity, and emotion to talk about a facet of her life that goes beyond music. Her statements reflected how important her daughters are and the role family plays in her aspirations.
Far from presenting motherhood and independence as opposing paths, La Joaqui reaffirmed her desire to build a home of her own, with the traditions and affections she has always wanted to share.
