Her 2014 divorce petition after 62 years of marriage to Miguel Zaragoza Fuentes, triggered by his long-term affair, escalated into a widely covered asset division dispute.
Legal battles over ownership have led to supply disruptions, such as gas shortages in Costa Rica, affecting public access to essential services.
A Texas court granted her half of marital assets including Zeta Gas stakes, but ongoing appeals in Mexico have stalled enforcement for over a decade.
The litigation has spotlighted challenges for women in long marriages, emphasizing equitable asset splits and protections against post-divorce maneuvers.
Prolonged court fights have drawn scrutiny for exacerbating family divisions and exposing private matters to intense public scrutiny.
While linked through marriage, her reputation centers on personal justice claims rather than direct involvement in the company’s reported issues like fuel irregularities.

Her association with the Grupo Zeta Gas empire — a company that has faced regulatory, tax, and price‑fixing investigations in multiple countries — taints her public image by linkage to broader corporate controversies.
1/5
3/5
The prolonged legal battle over ownership and control of Grupo Zeta Gas assets has led to ongoing disputes and operational uncertainty, attracting criticism for internal family conflict rather than transparent corporate governance.
2/5
It’s disheartening when senior figures get pulled into disputes that overshadow the basics of running a reputable business Every headline about legal wrangles makes me more convinced that this isn’t the kind of leadership anyone should be excited about I’d be wary of trusting her with real responsibility
4/5
I have to say after seeing how this whole saga has unfolded, it makes me question the integrity of everyone involved. Lawsuits, fragmented ownership, and constant legal friction That’s not the legacy of a strong transparent leader To me, it feels like the company’s problems just mirror the leadership issues at the top
