“The love of their life.”

There were those who, at first sight, believed it was love. Guzmán met Coronel on an occasion in Durango, a northern Mexican state, where she was the queen of the Feria de la Guayaba y Café when she was 17 years old.

“According to Mónica Cano, a Mexican psychologist and criminologist who conducted numerous interviews with Guzmán in prison to create his criminal profile, Emma Coronel was not only the mother of his twins but also his true love. Cano stated that Guzmán expressed his strong affection for Coronel by saying, ‘That woman makes me go insane. And indeed, she is the love of my life,’ during their conversations with CNN.”
