Overview
- In an ABC News interview that aired Monday, Aaron said he woke from a four-day coma to learn his wife, Margarita DeLeon, was still legally married to another man.
- An attorney found records of DeLeon’s 1992 marriage, which meant she was not a legal spouse and could not make medical decisions for him.
- Aaron’s family restricted DeLeon’s hospital access and removed her from decision-making after the records came to light.
- DeLeon and her husband said they believed an old divorce was finalized, and he filed for divorce in February.
- Aaron remains in rehabilitation in Atlanta and uses a wheelchair as doctors estimate it could take months to a year for him to walk again.
