Andy Garcia has opened up about his relationship with his wife, explaining that he proposed to her the very first night they met, over forty years ago.

The couple have been married since 1982 and share four children together.

Garcia’s latest movie sees him playing a protective father and has just come out. In it, he stars alongside Gloria Estefan, and you can catch this dynamic duo on HBO Max.

What is Andy Garcia’s net worth?

Andy Garcia has an estimated net worth of around $20 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

The actor boasts an extensive career. Since rising to fame starring in 1987 film The Untouchables, Garcia has appeared in films such as The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca, Ocean’s Eleven, Passengers, and Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.

He was nominated for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe in the Best Supporting Actor categories for his role in The Godfather Part III. Back in 1995, Garcia received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Andy Garcia opens up about love

Andy Garcia has married to his wife, Marivi, since 1982, but still remembers the night they met. He told People:

“We were very young, but she swept me off my feet. Some people know each other a while and there’s a friendship first, but when we met that night, it was very clear that this was the woman of my life.”

The couple dated for seven years before getting married, but Garcia actually proposed the very first night they met.

“She busts my chops saying that I proposed to all the girls that night but that’s not true!” he said of his wife.

The couple share four children together: Dominik, 38, Daniella, 34, Alessandra, 30, and Andres, 20.

Garcia and Gloria Estefan star in Father of the Bride remake

Garcia is starring in the new Father of The Bride remake alongside Gloria Estefan. The film first came out in 1950, and the first remake was released in 1991.

The film is streaming on HBO Max, but hilariously isn’t the only time this summer that Garcia is going to be the father of the bride. Two of his daughters, Daniella and Dominik, are tying the knot in June and July.

“It’s weird how it happened — three fathers of the bride in 30 days. But I couldn’t pull [from his role as disapproving dad in the film] because in reality, I love my sons-in-law and they’re family. I’m just going to take it all in and be festive. I want to enjoy the moment,” he said.
