Franklin Barreto’s girlfriend Michelle Vega is a 22 year-old young lady from Venezuela. She cares about her country. She describes herself as a person from a country that is in a struggle to be free every day. It’s true. Venezuela is in a terrible spot right now and is crumbling. It’s good to acknowledge this because it spreads awareness of the problems they experience. Since Franklin himself also comes from Caracas, Venezuela, he feels lucky to now play in the Majors. Franklin posed with two young boys in numerous photos on social media, but I am fairly certain they are not his children. However, I can’t confirm that.
Since Michelle is very young, I don’t believe she gave birth to any children yet. Rather, the kids Franklin poses with are probably his nephews and nieces, but they might even be his brothers and sisters! Michelle visited him in the San Francisco area back in May of 2016. I have no idea if she lives in the States now, but I doubt it. Of course, Franklin Barreto’s girlfriend did attend several games of his in the States over the past few years. Franklin even posted a picture of them together in Midland, Texas. He wore the Midland RockHounds uniform.
On Valentine’s Day in 2017, Franklin posted a nice picture of his father, his nephews, and Michelle giving him a nice kiss on the cheek. Franklin Barreto’s girlfriend responded by telling him she loves him. Franklin seems to adjust well to life in America. I am very curious what the transitional status of Michelle is for citizenship. The process can be brutal and take a long time. They might even consider marriage soon. From a pragmatic standpoint, it would speed things along. However, it might not fit their life plans at the moment. Regardless, the couple get along very well and look forward to the future.
