The renowned music icon, Gloria Estefan, and her family have been bringing out a new Facebook Live series called 'Red Table Talk: The Estefans.' The live series features Estefan and her family's conversation with each other and their celebrity guest in a sobremesa-style chat.
The first episode of the show, which premiered on Wednesday, showed talks between family issues. It featured the co-host, Lili Estefan, a niece of Gloria Estefan, opened about her painful divorce from the Cuban businessman Lorenzo Luaces in 2018, which came after eighteen years of their marriage.
Also, Lili Estefan, mentioned how she felt after finding out the paparazzi documented her ex's affair in media. She stated, 'Imagine, right from the beginning, I felt so humiliated privately and then publicly.' Also, she added;
"I’ve been loyal to that man for every moment — he’s going through hell and back — and you’re there. Your support. You build. You love. And then at the end, why did they eliminate [my] position as a wife. I didn’t get a raise. They fired me. You can break my heart, but you cannot take my soul."
The first episode was very family-focused while the trailer also showed that Gloria joined by her family, including her husband, Emilio, and daughter, Emily. It also focused on the life that Lili is living after her divorce with the Cuban business mogul.
Lili Estefan And Lorenzo Luaces' Relationship
Lili Estefan and her ex-husband, Lorenzo Luaces, were married for two and a half-decades. They tied a nuptial knot on 23 August 1992 and lived as husband and wife for twenty-five years. In their marital tie's long journey, the former lovebirds welcomed two children, namely, Lorenzo Luaces Jr. and Lina Teresa Luaces.

The pair were going on with their fullest flow on married life until the Cuban Businessman's infidelity storyboarded off to the media. He became the top-notch story back in 2017 as a paparazzi revealed a photo of him having a romantic moment with another woman.
In the first episode of Red Table Talk: The Estefans, Lili Estefan revealed:
"When I find out that the paparazzi had caught him with another woman and the pictures were taken to my job, to my colleagues, to the producers of my show. To Univision, my second home for 30 years, I’m going, how come I don’t know anything?"
"And I was flipping out… So imagine, right from the beginning, I felt so humiliated privately and then publicly."
Estefan and Luaces eventually departed in 2017, which marks three years from their divorce, as of now.
