What Happened to Griselda Blanco's Husbands?

A man (Alberto Guerra as Dario) gazes at a woman (Sofia Vergara as Griselda) as she places a hand on his chest and holds a glass of champagne during a party.

Netflix's true crime miniseries Griselda is an engrossing depiction of the life of Griselda Blanco (a.k.a. the "Cocaine Godmother," a.k.a. la madrina, a.k.a. la jefa). It covers the drug tycoon's rise to the top of the underworld during the Miami drug war of the '70s and '80s. Even though the fictionalized six-episode series tells a complete story of Blanco's rise and fall in the U.S., it only covers part of her life story, leaving viewers with plenty of questions about her personal history including her family's fate. There's also the question of the brutal boss's romantic history, as the series only introduces two of her three husbands (and even the second spouse only gets a couple of scenes). Read on to learn about all three of Griselda Blanco's husbands, including how they were all involved in her life of crime, and why she received the moniker of "The Black Widow."

Who was the father of Griselda Blanco's sons?
