The television star and his wife have three adult children: Francisco, Patricio, and Vivi. Their only daughter, Vivi, got her start on her father's Sábado Gigante show, and has gone on to become a TV personality of her own right in Chile.
After launching a segment on Sábado Gigante in 1999, which at the time was filming in Miami, she brought the show back to its birthplace in Santiago de Chile and kept it going until 2007.
