Charo’s Husband, Kjell Rasten, Dead From Apparent Suicide
The husband of Charo — the Spanish American singer who rose to fame in the United States in 1970s — was found dead at the couple’s home on Monday of an apparent suicide.
Law enforcement sources tell The Blast that Charo was in the home at the time of Kjell Rasten’s death.
Charo and Rasten were married in 1978. It was the singer’s second marriage after she was previously married to bandleader Xavier Cugat from 1966-1978, though she has said that was merely a business arrangement.
The couple had one son together, Shel Rasten.
Charo and Rasten appeared together on a 2015 episode of “Celebrity Wife Swap,” where Charo swapped hubbies with her former “Love Boat” co-star, Jill Whelan.
