Romeo Santos Denies Reports He Suffered a Heart Attack

In his music, Romeo Santos often plays the role of the heartbreaker and the heartbroken — but after rumors circulated online that he had a heart attack… he was far from pleased.

In an X post Sunday night, the legendary bachata singer shut down rumors that he was hospitalized after suffering from a heart attack ahead of his tour with Aventura next month.

“You do not have the power, much less the wisdom, to hurt me,” he wrote on X. “If you think that they are going to return the tour tickets because of this false news, then you’re even more dumb than I thought 🤦🏻‍♂️.”

“If you continue thinking about how to destroy me, then you might go into cardiac arrest,” he added. “May God rebuke this.”

Santos coincidentally cleared up the rumors a day before April Fool’s Day, after Latin American news outlets picked up stories based on social media rumors that claimed that he had a heart attack at his home.

Santos is set to go on an extensive United States tour with Aventura this summer, starting in Sacramento on May 1, before making stops in cities such as Houston, Chicago, New York, and Dallas.

The Aventura tour’s name, Cerrando Ciclos, or Closing Cycles, and visuals seem to allude that the run of shows will be a farewell tour for the iconic group that reunited in 2020.

On Monday, Aventura also announced a new single, “Brido con Augua,” or “I Toast With Water,” set to be released at midnight. The track marks the group’s first time since dropping “Volví,” their first song in 10 years, alongside Bad Bunny.
