Who Is Antonimar Mello?
Antonimar Mello is known mainly as the husband of Lisa Lisa, the stage name of singer Lisa Velez. He is not a musician or actor. He has not given interviews and keeps no active public social media presence.
His clearest public trace is a photograph. Getty Images and WireImage list him alongside Lisa Lisa at the New York premiere of the film “Undefeated” at Loews 34th Street Theaters.
The Music World Behind the Name
Nearly all the search interest comes from Lisa Lisa’s career. She was born Lisa Velez in 1967 and fronted the trio Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam, whose hits were written and produced by the group Full Force.
The group’s rise ran in stages:
- “I Wonder if I Take You Home” reached number one on Billboard’s club chart in 1985, but peaked at only number 34 on the pop chart.
- The ballad “All Cried Out” went gold and reached number eight on the pop chart in 1986.
- The 1987 album Spanish Fly was released on April 8 and peaked at number seven on the Billboard 200.
- “Head to Toe” reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on June 20, 1987. “Lost in Emotion” followed at number one on October 17, 1987.
A music critic explained the formula: Full Force blended club-ready Latin freestyle with classic pop songwriting, and the Supremes were a major influence on Spanish Fly.
Marriage and Family: What Is Reported
The relationship timeline is reported, but not confirmed by a statement from either person:
- Reporting from late 2004 called him her longtime fiancé and said the couple planned to marry in January 2005.
- IMDb still lists him as her spouse from January 2005, with two children.
- A New York court listing shows a divorce or separation case filed in May 2021. Other outlets place the separation around 2022 and say the reasons have never been made public.
These sources conflict, so “former husband” is common wording but should not be treated as settled. The children are private individuals, and responsible coverage has no need to name them.
Career Claims: Event Work and Media Ventures
Several reports describe him as working in event management or entertainment logistics, but no primary source confirms this. A few mention a business called “AFM Digital Studio,” which has thin coverage and has not been independently verified. The same source notes there is no verifiable record of where he studied, so any page naming a school or degree deserves suspicion.
Age and Net Worth
No reliable birth date exists. The “mid-40s to early 50s” estimate you may see is only an inference from timelines. Net worth numbers are in the same position: age, career, education, net worth and social media details should all be read as reported rather than fully confirmed.

Bottom Line
Antonimar Mello’s public footprint is a footnote to one of freestyle music’s biggest chart runs. Honest coverage stays inside that footprint: a marriage that started in the mid-2000s, a family that has stayed out of view, and a professional life nobody has been able to document.
