Chris Heria’s Wife, Girlfriend, and Past Relationship
Chris Heria has had quite a dreadful relationship in the past. He was just 19 when the mother of his child got pregnant in January 2011. He was preparing for real estate school to get his license at that time.
A few months later in June, he proposed to her but he was rejected. He decided not to get married to the mother of his child as it could affect the upbringing of their child. (So, he does not have a wife yet.)
A few weeks later, the mother of his child scared him about whether they should get married ASAP or if he would never get to see his child again by blocking contact with him.
As time passed, he fell in love with another girl that he still is in a relationship with. Once he was with her in a restaurant in Miami where a group of gangsters attacked him. This incident resulted in many legal hassles with attorneys and police afterward.
