Iglesias' unique way of performing comedy by targeting audiences across all ages without being controversial has made him who he is. So, what is Iglesias' personal life like behind the cameras?

Gabriel Was Never Officially Married

The award-winning comedian has never been married, and he doesn't have any biological kids. Despite millions of followers on social media, Iglesias prefers to keep his love life private, so it's unclear if he's currently dating or single.

Iglesias opened up about how he took a break from work to reflect on his life, including quitting alcohol for at least two years.

Even though there were some speculations about him secretly seeing someone, other reports suggest he's single after his breakup in 2020. When asked about his love life, the comedian stated that he had shifted his focus to his career and dogs.

He Reportedly Had a Long-Time Relationship with Claudia Valdez

Iglesias once had a serious relationship with actress Claudie Valdez, but after years of dating, the duo went their separate ways in July 2020. Valdez is best known for her role as a Nurse in the Maternity ward in the sci-fi/horror film "Monsters."

According to reports, Iglesias began dating Valdez in 2008, two years before "Monsters" premiered. Ever since the movie aired, it seems like Valdez hasn't done any other major projects.

The loved birds were in a relationship for 12 years, and at some point, fans assumed that Valdez was Gabriel Iglesias' wife. But it turned out the duo never got married nor had kids together.

However, the comedian was a stepfather to Valdez's son, whom they raised together. After his breakup with Valdez, Iglesias confessed that he struggled with alcoholism and depression.

Even though Iglesias has been in the comedy industry for more than two decades and is recognized worldwide, his journey to success hasn't been a walk in the park. Especially being a public figure and constantly dealing with criticism, he still ensures that he's put a smile on people's faces.

The stress of juggling work and family may have played a massive role in Iglesias' breakup with Valdez. Even though they went their separate ways, the comedian still strongly bonds with Valdez's son, Frankie, who he considers his own.

Speaking to People in 2020, Iglesias opened up about how he took a break from work to reflect on his life, including quitting alcohol for at least two years. He said:

"I drink now, but I needed that time to reflect; I couldn't drink and fix myself."

He spoke about his single life and stated that his home felt different and that his main goal was to focus on his kid, career, and dogs.
