The Number Will Make Your Jaw Drop
According to a New York Post report, a former official of the late leader claimed that Castro slept with 35,000 women.
Breaking Down That Figure
The ex-official named Ramon even broke down the astonishing figure into daily “sessions.”
How Many Per Day?
“He slept with at least two women a day for more than four decades – one for lunch and one for supper,” Ramon said.
Castro Had Quite An Appetite!
As if women were meals that one simply chose off a menu (SMH), the insider added, “Sometimes he even ordered one for breakfast.”
Was That Even Healthy?
Ramon further suggested that this appetite had a direct effect on Castro’s longevity as a leader (he ruled with an iron fist over Cuba for nearly five decades).
Apparently, It Was The Secret To His Longevity
The source said, “I don’t think he would have stayed on as long as he did if not for all the incredible women he had access to as president.”
Where Did All Those Women Come From?
Castro’s security team allegedly searched the beaches of Havana every day for women to recruit.
A Womanizer And Sex Symbol

Twice Married
He was married twice – first to Mirta Díaz-Balart in 1948 and then to Dalia Soto Del Valle in 1980.
Numerous Affairs
During and in between those marriages, he also had numerous affairs and relationships. He had at least nine known children with his wives and mistresses.
There’s An Upcoming Movie About His Daughter
His only daughter – Alina Fernández Revuelta, whose mother was his mistress Natalia “Naty” Revuelta – is the subject of an upcoming film, Alina of Cuba .
‘Alina Of Cuba’
Alina was a vocal critic of her father and forbidden from traveling outside Cuba. She fled in 1993 as an exile.
