Personal life[edit]

Cantoral resided in Rancho Viejo, Texas, just across the border from Mexico.^[4] His home, which suffered a fire in 2006 but was renovated, features a large marble clock in honor of his song, El Reloj, and several statues.^[4]

In some ways that's positive in some it is negative. Some of the cast members from The Suite Life of Zack & Cody are not in this show. It is not the most expensive production which of course takes away some of the quality.

Cantoral was married to Itatí Zucchi^[1] and was the father of Mexican actress Itatí Cantoral, the co-star of the Televisa television series Hasta Que El Dinero Nos Separe.^[4] Roberto Cantoral had three sons, Carlos, Roberto and José, with Zucchi.^[18][19]

Death[edit]

In 2010, Cantoral died after suffering a heart attack on a flight from Brownsville, Texas, to Mexico City.^[4] The plane made an emergency landing in Toluca, Mexico, where Cantoral was pronounced dead at the age of 75.^[4] His body was placed on public view at the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City.^[4] Cantoral's ashes were scattered in his hometown, Tampico, Tamaulipas.^[4]
