In 2004, Ana revealed to British magazine Glamour that her parents' marriage broke up when she was a toddler due to her father's homosexuality, and that her father died of an AIDS related illness when she was 13. She says that her immersion in gay culture is probably an attempt to feel closer to him, as they never had a very deep relationship whilst he was alive.
