EPA/FRANZ-PETER TSCHAUNERThe couple's split is "a private matter and there is no comment," publicist Michael Jensen said.They have three children together, son Salvador, whose eponymous band toured Europe with his dad last year, and daughters Angelica and Stella.Deborah's 2005 memoir, Space Between the Stars, journaled her husband's infidelities."I sincerely apologized to her and to my kids when I wasn't in my right mind and did something hurtful," the 60-year-old rocker said at the time. "It has helped me become more humble and to try harder to be the man she wants me to be."Santana told Rolling Stone in 2000 that, without Deborah, he'd "probably be a hobo." After his blockbuster success with "Supernatural", Santana launched a women's footwear line, Carlos by Carlos Santana, in 2000.
