The recent split of guitarist Carlos Santana and wife Deborah Santana has proved that no relationship is perfect or lasts forever. The couple thought as ‘ideal mates’ has finally separated after 34-years of togetherness.

The separation has come after Deborah Santana filed for a divorce on October 19, in Marin County Superior Court. Deborah Santana cited ‘irreconcilable differences’ stemming from Carlos’ alleged unfaithfulness.

Way back in 2000 Carlos Santana had revealed to Rolling Stone magazine about his wife being a spiritual and emotional person and had said:

She is the “guiding light”. I would be probably be a hobo if she had not restructured my business life in 1994.

He described himself as the ‘space cadet’ while Deborah as one who had ‘trained’ him to involve fully in their children’s lives, take out the trash and drive the car pool when he was not touring.

Whereas Deborah accused him of being unfaithful in her 2005 memoir, ‘Space Between the Stars’. Though after the memoir hit shelves and things became public. Carlos Santana apologized and tried to become a better man. He had said:

I sincerely apologized to her and to my kids when I wasn’t in my right mind and did something hurtful. It (the memoir) has helped me become more humble and to try harder to be the man she wants me to be.

However, after two years, it has become clear that he was not able to keep the promises he made to his children’s mother. Rising to fame in late 1960’s and early 1970’s, in 2003 he was named number 15 by Rolling Stone on the list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

Winner of eight Grammy Awards he has three children aged 23, 22, and 17 with Deborah. He also supports non-profit-organization the Milagro Foundation that helps underprivileged children. Besides this, he also plans of opening three Mexican restaurants in San Francisco. None of the two has commented on their pending divorce except Carlos Santana’s publicist, Michael Jensen, who said:

A private matter and there is no comment.
