Juan Gabriel’s godson doesn’t rule out the artist’s existence: “I didn’t see the body”

Did Juan Gabriel not die? In recent days, rumors have grown that the artist could be alive, and the rumors are growing again with the statements of his godson, singer Jans Devael, known as Santaella, who revealed that when the Divo de Juárez died, he never saw his body.

It all started a couple of days ago when a video captured by some young people went viral on social media in which a man identical to Juan Gabriel can be seen eating in a restaurant in France. The recording quickly became popular due to his uncanny resemblance to the singer.

But this isn’t the first time speculation has arisen surrounding Juan Gabriel’s supposed death. Shortly after his death in August 2026, rumors began to circulate that his death was sudden and that he had only faked it to evade taxes.

The truth is that to this day, doubts remain as to whether Alberto Aguilera Valadez actually died. Some claim to have seen him in the United States, others in Switzerland, and the most recent case in France. Those close to him, including his children, have expressed no doubt about it; however, people close to them have expressed a certain distrust.
