A Bogota shoemaker is living a very happy life with his two
wives, his mother and his fifteen children, he told Colombian
television.
Bigamist shoemaker or shoemaking bigamist Jose de Jesus Sierra met his first love, Luz Dary Torres, some twenty years ago. When he met the 15-year-old Esther Garcia ten years later he fell in love with her the same way he did with Luz.
For years the Don Juan of shoe repairing went out with both women without them knowing about eachother, but in the end he was able to convince them both to come live with him and with his elderly mother, since his job was not allowing him to support the women and children living in two different homes.
It did take the man some effort. His first wife never knew that the young girl that sometimes came to visit was his second wife and the second wife thought the woman and teh children living in the shoemaker’s home were his sister and nephews.
Now, ten years after meeting his second love-of-his-life, the shoemaker lives in a tiny home with his aging mother, his two women and the 15 children he had with both women. And he has his private bedroom where he sleeps with neither of his wives.
