Figueroa was born on May 2, 1995, to famous parents Joan Sebastian and Maribel Guardia. His last post on Instagram was shared on April 8 — dedicated to his late father Joan who died in 2015.
“How slowly 8 years have passed, since the day you left time tastes bitter,” he shared. “People proclaim that time fixes everything, but it’s a vile lie every day it hurts more and without fear of hurting liabilities… here you go.”
Figueroa continued, “Fans acclaim, ‘Long live the People’s Poet,’ but I don’t care, I just want my father. To hell with the Grammys, with fame and money, because the only I want is to hug you one more time. I love you dad and if your death hurts it’s because your life was very valuable to me.”
Figueroa portrayed his father during his early years in the TelevisaUnivision bio series Por Siempre Joan Sebastian back in 2016.
