The woman who has claimed she’s “spiritually married” Quinton Aaron is no longer allowed at his bedside as The Blind Side actor recovers from his spinal stroke, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly — and she’s not denying it.
An insider close to Aaron’s family revealed that Margarita has been “banned” from Quinton’s hospital room as his family investigates their suspicions further.
“I’m OK with it, I’m at peace with this. Quinton and I pray a lot and believe in God and believe in a higher power. I can feel his presence telling me this will work itself out,” Margarita exclusively told Us on Wednesday, February 4, when asked about her alleged ban.
Aaron is “not talking” yet, so he has not asked about Margarita, the source said.

Us is told the actor’s loved ones decided as a family not to discuss Margarita with Aaron because they want to “protect” him from her and continue to focus on his recovery.
The insider claimed that before Aaron’s relatives went public with their suspicions, Margarita allegedly tried to isolate his relatives from his hospital bedside.
Margarita, however, denied that.
“Hospital staff even told me they were limiting visitation. They were only giving everyone five minutes once a day to be with him,” she said in response.
Quinton Aaron’s wife, Margarita Aaron, is asking for support after the Blind Side actor fell ill and was hospitalized. Margarita began a GoFundMe campaign in January 2026, revealing her husband — who is most famous for portraying Michael Oher in the Sandra Bullock film — was “on life support due to a severe blood infection.” […]
According to a source, one of Aaron’s family members confronted Margarita at the hospital. (On Tuesday, the star’s relatives raised alarm bells about the legitimacy of the pair’s marriage and accused Margarita of not being a registered nurse, as well as being married to someone other than Aaron).
“If his family confronted me, I’d like to know which one. Not one of his family members confronted me in the hospital, and if they did, they were an invisible ghost with a sheet because none of them showed up,” Margarita told Us. (Our insider scoffed at her response, saying she knows exactly which family member challenged her.)
The source claimed Margarita allegedly denied the allegations before later admitting to hospital staff she was “spiritually married” to the actor and not legally wed.
Margarita shared a different story when addressing the accusations.
“That’s not true. I didn’t admit that to [the] staff,” she claimed to Us. “But we are spiritually married. We are tied as one.”
“I used to literally beg his family to come see him or try to even FaceTime him in the hospital. He used to say no one loves me. They love me for my name and what I can bring them.”
Margarita does admit she is legally married to another man.
“I am separated from my ex and we are both working on this process to make sure a divorce gets finalized so we both can move on with our lives,” she explained. “I have watched Quinton in the hospital for seven days, I prayed, I watched this man go through trials and tribulations.”
Margarita wants the family to put down their swords.
“Instead of us fighting over him, let’s fight for his life and what is right,” she told Us.
Aaron’s loved ones plan to investigate this matter further.
“Since the health crisis of our beloved family member Quinton Aaron, we have raised some suspicions about the legitimacy of Quinton and Margarita’s marriage to each other, as well as her legitimacy as a registered nurse. We have found some alarming details,” they said in a statement provided to Us on Tuesday. “We as a family believe Margarita isn’t who she claimed to be to us. This has caused us to want to investigate her further.”
Quinton Aaron, best known for his breakout role in The Blind Side, has dropped 200 pounds — and says his biggest weight lifted was an emotional one. “Hey guys it has definitely been a tough few years since Covid. Made new friends and lost old ones. However, last year when I married my #puertoriqueña @margaritaleta75 […]
Aaron’s brother Jarred told TMZ that he believed Margarita was assisting in making “crucial and life-saving medical decisions.” (The outlet reported Margarita holds “no power of attorney” and has never made medical decisions on Aaron’s behalf.)
Last month, the family confirmed that Aaron had been put on life support at an Atlanta hospital after collapsing at home. They later shared he had suffered a “spinal stroke.”
“We acknowledge that you’ve heard about Quinton Aaron’s condition. We appreciate the overwhelming love, support and prayers that Quinton has received over the past few days from his fans, the public and our concerned community,” they said at the time.
An update on Aaron’s condition was shared via a GoFundMe on January 26.
“He is alert, aware and recovering. The Aaron family has a lot to deal with for the betterment of their loved one, but will be sure to keep everyone posted regarding Quinton’s health as we see fit,” the update read in part.
The campaign has raised almost $48,000 with more than 640 donations at the time of publication.
