Who is Marisa Ramirez? Who is her IRL partner? Ex-husband, Net Worth, Parents

We’ve seen Marisa Ramirez as “Detective Maria Baez” on Blue Bloods since 2013, and after eight long years, her run is finally coming to an end. In December 2021, fans started noticing that she was absent from a few episodes, and many believed that she was leaving Blue Bloods.

So what happened in her life? Who is her ex-husband and real-life partner? Get the answers as you scroll down.

Who is Marisa Ramirez’s IRL partner?

The chemistry between Marisa Ramirez and Donnie Wahlberg on Blue Bloods is so romantic, it’s no wonder longtime fans of the CBS show are rooting for them to become real-life partners.

And if you are one of those delivery people then we have some bad news for you.

Donnie is married. That’s right, he has a partner named Jenny McCarthy, whom he first met in 2012 and brought into the family in 2014.

Not wanting to rub salt in the wound, Donnie also recently revealed that his character will not be dating Marisa. “Will Estes plays my brother in the movie and Vanessa Ray plays his current wife. And they start out as partners, and as soon as they get together and get married, they have no more scenes,” Donnie shared.

“So if they (his character and Marisa) start a relationship, we won’t have scenes together and then I’ll miss my friend,” he added.

Outside of Blue Bloods, Marisa and Donnie are also great friends. The two are often pictured on their IG after filming the show or just hanging out.

On Donnie’s 52nd birthday (which is August 17, 2021), Marisa threw him a small party to celebrate and posted on her IG with some loving words saying, “Grateful every day for you and your light! Sorry we’re working but at least we’re laughing!!! Love you my friend!!”

A month later, on Marisa’s 44th birthday (September 15), Donnie responded with a long captioned IG collage of them. Part of it read, “I couldn’t have asked for a more incredible, trustworthy, and hilarious friend/partner.”

So now that we’ve established that nothing happened between Marisa and Donnie, let’s also clarify that Marisa Ramirez’s IRL partner was unknown before 2021.

At that point, there was no trace of Marisa’s real-life partner on her IG account @marisachicaramirez anymore.

Meet Nathan Lavezoli, Marisa Ramirez’s ex-husband

Marisa Ramirez married her ex-husband Nathan Lavezoli in 2002 and were together for nearly a decade until they split in 2011. It was reported that Marisa filed for divorce on March 21, 2011, and the two were officially separated before Marisa joined the cast of Blue Bloods in 2013.

Throughout their marriage, the couple has appeared together many times at events and activities, including the Morelia Film Festival Kickoff Party in LA, the Grand Opening of Belle Gray, Lisa Rinna’s clothing store and Casino Night and the LA Lakers’ 3rd Annual Poker Invitational – Arrivals in CA.

After the divorce, Marisa dated a guy (whose identity has yet to be revealed) and they welcomed a daughter named Violet Rae on May 29, 2016.

As of 2021, Violet is in kindergarten and is the initiator of her mom’s IG. According to Marisa, her daughter is an “incredibly kind, brave, and sweet soul” who continues to surprise her every day “with her intelligence and sense of humor.”

What is Marisa Ramirez’s net worth?

Marisa Ramirez has a net worth of over $5 million as of 2021.

She was first spotted by a talent agent when she was 12 years old while walking around a shopping mall. Soon after, Marisa was doing print modeling and eventually became a commercial actress. Her work later took her to countries in Asia, Australia, Africa and Europe.

As of 2021, Marisa has appeared in over 37 films and television shows including Body of Proof (2013), Against the Wall (2011), Spartacus: Gods of the Arena (2011), Mental (2009), The Young and the Restless (2007), Miracles (2003), and General Hospital (2002).

Who are Marisa Ramirez’s parents and siblings?

Both of Marisa Ramirez’s parents have passed away. Her father, Ray “Big Wolf,” was reunited with his wife on November 6, 2020, after a years-long battle with cancer. Still bitter about her father’s death, Marisa shared that he “didn’t deserve a bad oncologist, a family doctor who wouldn’t return his calls, and more.”

“I feel cheated. It was a surprise even though he was battling lymphoma,” she shared on IG, two days after his death.

As I remember, Ray was a good-natured soldier, intelligent, sincere, compassionate and fun-loving.

Fun fact: Marisa’s family started a tradition in 2019 after her grandmother Stella passed away to set up an altar. Little did she know, she would add a photo of her father to it the following year.

Regarding her siblings, Marisa has an older brother named Cellyirez. He is an aspiring musician who released the single “Lone Wolf” in December 2021.
