Christina has a son, Max Bratman, with her former husband, producer Jordan Bratman; and a daughter, Summer, with her fiancé Matthew Rutler.
Christina’s mother has said:
Fausto [Christina’s father] and I both have brown hair. And as for why Christina’s came out blonde, well, the Aguilera side of the family says that they believe she got it from Fausto’s deceased brother Walter, who was blonde haired with blue eyes (see guys!! And he was 100% Latino!!). It’s not as uncommon as people seem to want make it out to be.
Christina’s paternal grandfather was Fausto Aguilera Calderón (the son of José Antonio Aguilera Masías and Zoila Cristina Calderón Petterson). Fausto was born in Quito, Distrito Metropolitano de Quito, Pichincha, Ecuador.

Christina’s maternal grandfather was Lowell Marley Fidler (the son of Marlie Alfred Fidler and Pluma Violet Osburn). Lowell was born in West Virginia. Marlie was the son of Minor Lough Fidler and Ivy Luvela/V. Wyant/Wiant. Pluma was the daughter of Emory Porter Osburn and Emma Louise Radcliff.

she would be so much cuter if she dropped the surgery makeup and tanner ):
she has to be the least latino-looking latina I’ve ever seen o_o
please tell us what latinas look like
you cant use your own eyes or google?
didnt think it was so hard to understand.
Mike you’re just stereotyping. Latinos can be White with blond hair and blue eyes, they can be meditteranian looking, they can be Asian, they can be Black. But often because they are very racially mixed, they are all of the above in different combinations. So basically Latinos are every look and phenotype and race and can’t be pigeonholed. Most races can’t be pigeonholed but Latinos are very very diverse
there’s white, brown, mixed and black latinos, LATINO is not a race, is a cultural aspect!
thank hollywood for the lame stereotype you have inside your head ;)
TRavel to Argentina and you will see everybody there is White and lots of blonds and very slim. LIke in Spain.
You’re so ignorant and uneducated and stereotyping. What do latinos look like? Did you know there are black latinos? How about Asian latinos? White latinos? Native American latinos? Mixed latinos? Bet you didn’t uneducated stereotypical fool
I didnt know she was half latina. Shes very beautiful
pretty
Her dad isn’t white saw a pic he is dark skin she just got more of her mom
Genes. Look at Mariah Carey she looks more white then black or Halle berry she got more black genes.
He really isn’t all that dark. He has an olive skin tone, like most Italian Americans.
Again talking,about something a RACIST like you couldn’t understand
Are you serious now? You’re easily racist assuming things you know nothing about. You go by opinion.
