SEBASTIÁN MARROQUÍN- PABLO ESCOBAR’S SON

Pablo Escobar may not be a Hollywood actor, but his notoriety earned him instant celebrity status. Though his father was well-known as a drug lord, Sebastián Marroquín tried to live a life out of the public eye. He graduated with a degree in architecture and preferred not to be linked to his dad. He chose to use a new name, Sebastian, instead of using his real name Juan Escobar. In 2014, he authored and released the book, Pablo Escobar: My Father.

He stated that part of the income would go to his father’s victims. This is a very selfless act coming from a boy who has spent his life in the shadow of his father’s dark past. His act of donating to the victims is probably one of the most influential and the most admired selfless acts of all, coming from a celebrity’s child. He grew up to be different from his roots and chose to invest his time doing good for those people whom his father has done wrong.
