Whether I'm single or in a relationship, I'm the same person. The same human being.

My dad left when I was a little boy and I grew up with my mother's family. There were foundations in the U.S. where Jewish people got together and sent money to Cuba, so we got some of that. We were a poor family, but I was always a happy kid.

When I was back in Cuba, who could have imagined I would be invited to the White House!

The relationship I have with my kids is beautiful.

When I was a little boy, my dream was to play baseball and leave Cuba.

In Cuba you get a quarter of a chicken per month. They give you one bread per person a day. So, it makes your life really tough.

I try to give my kids everything I never had.
