Margo ‘Rey’ Reymundo is a Mexican singer, songwriter, and cancer survivor. Ron and Margo met through the singer’s older brother, Alex Reymundo, a Mexican actor and stand-up comedian. Margo was performing, and her brother invited White to watch her show. He went even though he didn’t want to and was instantly attracted to her when watching her performance.
As the comedian tells the story, it took several years for him to ask Alex for his sister’s phone number, and they started dating shortly after. While Margo was Ron White’s girlfriend, they worked together on Ron White Presents: Margo Rey Live. Their events often blended concerts and comedy shows, with Alex included.
The pair got married on 13 October 2013 in California. They lived in Montecito in Santa Barbara County, California. However, the singer and songwriter filed for divorce in June 2017, starting a long court case over spousal support.

The two have never directly addressed why they divorced. However, in 2017, TMZ reported that White initially decided to end their relationship. They were allegedly living large in a hotel in Beverly Hills during the 2017 summer when the comedian decided he wanted to end their relationship.
Shortly after, Margo, who was battling cancer at the time, had a consultation with an oncologist. When she tried to pay for the consultation, she discovered that Ron had cut her off from their joint finances and cancelled all her credit cards. The comic had allegedly also changed all the locks to their house. She filed for divorce shortly afterwards.
During their divorce proceedings, Margo claimed they had been married for nine years, not four. She claimed that they had been common law married since 2008. On the other hand, White claimed they hadn’t been married at all, calling the 2013 ceremony a “mock marriage”. In 2019, a court upheld the marriage, causing White to pay the singer $25K monthly in spousal support.
Although Margo and Ron haven’t been together for over five years, her brother Alex still works with Ron. The two stand-up comedians often go on tour together with Alex as White’s opening act.
