She Was Separated From Nicky Jam When He Was 8 Years Old

One of the points in Nicky Jam’s life when he needed his mother the most was when he suffered his first heartbreak. His girlfriend at the time had broken up with him and it was too much for him to take. Ysabel’s absence in his life made it all the more difficult for him.

According to Nicky, the girl he loved left him and his mother was also not available which made him resort to hard drugs because every time he used drugs, his mind went blank and nothing else mattered.

That year, Ysabel attended one of Nicky Jam’s concerts in the Dominican Republic and tried to get backstage to see her son. According to Nicky, his bodyguards came to report a woman who was adamant about seeing him as she claimed she was his mother.

Before long, Ysabel Caminero was reunited with her son as he came out to see the woman who claimed to be his mother. The rapper said even though the face didn’t exactly click, he could remember her voice. They both hugged each other and the rest is history.
