Key Points

  • He discovered his wife was still married to another man when they wed.
  • Aaron lost 200 pounds and attends daily therapy.

Aaron, 40, experienced a sudden spinal stroke while walking up stairs, causing his legs to stop working. He spent four days in a coma and a month on a breathing machine, according to major media reports. Since his release from hospital, he has undergone daily therapy.

In October 2025, Aaron revealed he had lost 200 pounds. His recovery continues, though his current health status and long-term prognosis remain unclear.

Aaron also disclosed that he learned from his family that his wife, Margarita DeLeon, was still legally married to another man when they wed two years ago in a Los Angeles chapel. According to The Independent, Aaron described it as his 'biggest mistake' and admitted he did not verify the divorce himself.

DeLeon disputed Aaron's claims, saying she was unaware her divorce filing had not gone through. Her husband filed for divorce in February 2025 and confirmed her account, stating he also thought their divorce had been finalized years ago, according to major media reports.

The current legal status of Aaron and DeLeon's marriage is unknown, and it remains unclear whether DeLeon intentionally deceived Aaron.
