Michael Corleone Sepúlveda Blanco, the only living son of the infamous Colombian drug lord Griselda Blanco, also known as the "Cocaine Queen," whose life has recently been serialized by Netflix, has embarked on an unexpected path following his participation in a reality show.
After being featured in "Cartel Crew," a show that chronicles the lives of drug lords' offspring who strive to distance themselves from their parents' legacy, Michael seized the opportunity to forge a different future for himself.
Michael Corleone's Life Change
Michael has ventured into the fashion world with his clothing brand, Puré Blanco, through which he pays homage to his mother. The brand features designs that include her portrait, weapons, luxury cars and quotes related to the Black Widow's universe. In addition, he legally markets cannabis through his line of CBD products.
People in the United States may know him from numerous news reports, documentaries and shows that delve into his past and his relationship with his mother. He is also the author of the book "My Mother, the Godmother," where he offers his take on Griselda Blanco's story. The book was released in January 2024, coinciding with the Netflix series Griselda's premiere.
His journey unveils an active quest for a path of his own, though his mother's globally known story will always loom large in his background.
