In February 2015, Santiago was engaged to girlfriend of five years Adrienne Bailon, who is best known as a former member of girl band “The Cheetah Girls”. He popped the question in front of family and friends in a restaurant in New York, where he handed her a box of carrots before going down in one knee with an engagement ring in hand. However, the couple called it quits later that year in September. He has also been married once prior to dating Bailon.
