Ricky Martin’s lawyers will defend the artist in the court
One of Ricky Martin’s representatives said,
“The allegations against Ricky Martin that lead to a protection order are completely false and fabricated. We are very confident that when the true facts come out in this matter our client Ricky Martin will be fully vindicated.”
“Unfortunately, the person who made this claim is struggling with deep mental health challenges. Ricky Martin has, of course, never been – and would never be – involved in any kind of sexual or romantic relationship with his nephew. The idea is not only untrue, it is disgusting. We all hope that this man gets the help he so urgently needs. But, most of all, we look forward to this awful case being dismissed as soon as a judge gets to look at the facts.”

Ricky Martin could face up to 50 years in prison if he’s proven guilty
When he was accused of domestic violence earlier this month, the identity of the victim was protected by Law 54 but Eric Martin, the singer’s brother, revealed that it was Dennis Yadiel Sanchez, his nephew.
The singer could face up to 50 years in prison because of strict Puerto Rico laws when it comes to incest. A spokesman stated that the singer’s relationship with his 21-year-old nephew ended a few months ago, and then the singer resorted to violence because “he could not accept the separation” and therefore began to repeatedly call him and persecute him.
Ricky Martin was recently sued by his ex-manager
Last month, the singer was sued by his ex-manager, Rebecca Drucker, for more than $3 million in unpaid commissions. The 15-page complaint stated that “Rebecca Drucker helped Ricky Martin through recording contracts, touring and sponsorship deals, and other professional endeavors,” adding, “With Rebecca Drucker at his side, Martin made millions of dollars and therefore owes Rebecca Drucker substantial commissions.”
