Laura Char Carson was born on 8 April 1968, which means she is now 55 years old. Of Colombian nationality by birth and American nationality by naturalization, she was born in Barranquilla, Colombia.
With very few details about the circumstances of her birth, sources have given the name of her mother as Lauraine Carson De Char, while her father is Simón Char Abdala. Her family is highly influential in Colombian politics. They are also into business and are well-connected.
Some of her family members include Alejandro Char, who was a mayor of Barranquilla, Fuad Char, who was a congressman; and Arturo Char, a senator. The family was originally from Syria.
Laura was raised in her home country for a while alongside her siblings, including Linda Char. She got into pageantry when she was much younger, and at a point, she was crowned queen of the Barranquilla Carnival.
It is not known at what age she made it to the United States, even though it is believed by some reports that it was when she was a teenager. That said, it was in the U.S. that she got some aspects of her education, with some other parts remaining unknown. It is reported that Sofia Carson’s mother went to Florida University, where she studied.
She Was Previously Married To José Daccarett
As regards her love life, it is no secret that Laura was previously married to a man known as Jose F. Daccarett before the union sadly came to an end. Her love life has generated so much interest because while it is clear that she was married to Jose, the circumstances under which they met and tied the knot are disputed.
While some claimed that Laura and Jose, who is also from Colombia, met while they were students at Florida University, another source made it known that the couple moved to the States and settled together in Florida, where they started their family with the birth of their daughter in 1993.
Jose was born in Barranquilla, Colombia, just like his former wife. He was brought up by his father, Rene Daccarett, and a mother whose name was not made known. He has a sister whose name is Rose Mary Daccarett. Jose is not as famous as Laura or his two kids, but he is also doing well for himself. The Colombian-born is a businessman whose name is linked to several businesses in real estate.
Laura and Jose divorced in 2021 after many years of marriage and two children between them. By court records, Jose requested the dissolution of the marriage in Miami Dade County Courts on August 3, 2021.
Unknown factors led to the divorce, and it is still unclear when the pair first started to consider ending their union. Jose’s relationship status on Facebook has been changed to Single since the divorce.
Laura has remained single since her divorce from her former husband. On his part, it is known that he is not yet married, but it remains unknown if Jose is seeing anyone.
Laura is a Mother of Two Famous Kids
Laura Char Carson has been blessed with two amazing daughters from her failed marriage to Jose, Sofia Carson and Paulina Char, both of whom were born in the 1990s and who enjoy the support of their parents.
Her first child is Sofia Carson, who was born in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States, on 10 April 1993. Sofia maintained her name until the start of her career as an entertainer when she changed it to Sofia Carson, taking the last name of her grandmother, who is from the United States, Lauraine Carson De Char.
Now 30 years old, Sofia is a famed actress and singer who began her career in 2012. She has since appeared in many movies and TV shows, including A Cinderella Story: If the Shoe Fits (2016) and Purple Hearts, which she also produced. Some of her other roles on TV are Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists (2019) and Descendants 3 (2019).
As a musician, she has an album to her name titled Sofia Carson (2022) and an EP, Leave Your Heart On The Dance Floor (2021).
Two years after Laura and Jose had Sofia, the couple welcomed their second child, Paulina Char. Paulina was born on July 21, 1995, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She is not as famous as her older sister, but she is also well-known. The younger of the Char sisters is an Instagram model and social media personality who has more than half a million followers on the platform.
Laura Char is very close to her daughters, and they share a very good relationship judging by what the two girls post about her on social media. In the same light, even as their parents are no longer together, the girls also have a good relationship with their father.
