"I told you this many times before, I don't know how I could have done the past 10 years of this whole journey without you, to which you would always reply saying, 'I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else,' and now that you're gone I'm unsure how I will continue the same without you," Tejada further remarked.

She also called the late hairstylist her "anchor," "rock," and "safe haven," who pushed her to be the "best version" herself.

Guerrero once revealed that he didn't have the perfect childhood and that his parents divorced at a young age, a situation that took an emotional toll on him.

"It was traumatizing, it was difficult. Seeing your Mom just not being genuinely who she is as a person," he said during an interview with Matt Cullen in 2022, per the Daily Mail.

His father was left alone to raise him, but due to his job, his great aunt, whom he called his parent, took up the responsibility.

He added, "They deal with difficultness, they're just trying to be young at the same time they're just trying to raise a child and that alone is difficult."

Unfortunately, his great-aunt passed on when he was 22, a period the late hairstylist described as a "very dark time in his life."
