Donald Denied V. Stiviano Ethnicity Phrasing “You Are Supposed To Be Delicate White or Latina Girl“
Prior to the fame, V. Stiviano used to be known by her birth name Vannesa Maria Perez, who is 42 years old as of 2024.
Stiviano was born to a poor Mexican family in Los Angeles and raised in Texas. Her childhood was almost spent facing financial scarcity.
Martha Perez, Stiviano’s mother, provided all the financial support for her family, which eventually resulted in her association with various illegal activities.
Martha even used her three kids to steal grocery items from a supermarket, leading her to be arrested and convicted of theft.
In addition, Martha married a construction worker, Guillermo Beltran, to help her get over the situation.
Also, it is believed that Stiviano’s biological father was of African-American descent.
Stiviano also revealed that coming from a different ethnic background than the locals, she often faced difficulties related to her identity and race.
And before finishing high school, she changed her real name while moving to Los Angeles from Texas.
When her name change case was taken to court, documents revealed that she believed her family would face rejection from people in Texas due to their racial background.
In addition, the court documents regarding Stiviano’s case disclosed another motive she had for changing her name. She had stated;
born from a rape case and having yet been fully accepted because of my race.
