Although she raised her children singlehandedly, Marlli Arias set a loving environment for her kids. Her son, Maluma, credited her for caring for him, especially amidst the pandemic.

While she leads a private life, Marlli is active on social media, where she posts photos of herself on vacation and memorable moments with her children.

Marlli Arias Separated from Maluma's Father When He Was Still Young

Marlli separated from her husband when Maluma was only ten years old. At that time, her son was only a young boy dreaming of becoming a soccer player with a growing interest in music. With her husband's absence, Marlli's only boy felt that he had to step up and care for his mother and sister. He recalled:

"When my parents got divorced, it affected my life and career in a positive way because I had to go get el pan del dia and find a way to help them. That was when I did a lot of things to bring food to the table for my family."

Admittedly, Marlli's son chose music as a career, thinking it would bring more money to the table. Fortunately, his name in the music industry has been growing throughout the years.

Just as her son takes care of her, Marlli also takes care of Maluma. She especially took care of him during the pandemic and made sure he felt well every day.

Marlli Arias Has a Good Relationship with Her Son

Marlli undoubtedly loves her son and shares a good relationship with both of her kids. She often shares sweet moments with them and posts them on social media. In 2022, she posted photos hugging her son from behind while basking under the sun on a yacht.

In May 2023, she shared another set of pictures with her kids, where they hugged and kissed her. One photo even featured the rapper sitting on his mom's lap like a little boy.

Besides her kids, Marlli isn't shy to share photos of herself on vacation. In 2021, she snapped pictures of herself overlooking the beach while wearing a red swimsuit and a leopard-print cover-up.

In August 2023, Marlli hit the seas once again and posted pictures in a checkered swimsuit, white sunglasses, and gold accessories.

Marlli Arias' Mom, Dad, and Sister Are a Part of His Stage Name

Marlli's son paid tribute to his family through his moniker in the music industry – a combination of the first two letters of their names, Marlli, Luis, and Manuela. The name symbolizes his unconditional love for his family.

Maluma has the name inked on his left leg and credits his sister for helping him get the tattoo at 14. Manuela took him to Premium Plaza Shopping Mall in El Poblado after she got a tattoo of the name.

Marlli is supportive of her son's career and has been seen with him multiple times, including the Univision's 13th Edition of Premios Juventud Youth Awards in 2016 and the premiere of "Maluma: Lo Que Era, Lo Que Soy, Lo Que Seré" and Premios Juventud in 2019.

Besides his music, Maluma is known for being linked to "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star Kim Kardashian, in 2021, a rumor he has since addressed.
