For the last couple of years, Maya Nazor has taken social media by storm with her gorgeous looks and enchanting personality. Her massive following on Instagram and TikTok proves that Maya never goes unnoticed wherever she goes, but she also owes part of her fame to the eyebrow-raising personal controversies she has seen herself involved in in recent times as a result of her former relationship with rapper Santa Fe Klan.
Whether you know about Maya for her career as a model and social influencer or for her publicly known relationships, you’ve surely wondered who she actually is, what she did before her career blossomed, and what her plans are for the future.
Keep reading to find out more about Maya Nazor’s personal and professional life!
Who Is Maya Nazor?
Maya Nazor was born on 5 January 1999, in Cuernavaca, Morelos, Mexico, though she then lived her first four years of her life in Canada. Her family returned to Mexico shortly before her parents divorced when she was five years old, leaving her to move to Cancun with her mother, and maternal grandmother, and sisters Farah and Ximena, who are also models.
As a child, Maya dreamed of being a singer, actress, or veterinary doctor, but those dreams were left behind when she discovered the wonders of social media at a very early age. As Maya told Amy Rey in 2023, she was a huge fan of Justin Bieber, and had a Facebook page in his honor with over 200,000 followers.
Maya left her home at 16 years old to live on her own, moving back to Cuernavaca; she finished high school through online courses while working at a local movie theater as an attendee. Regarding the challenges of leaving her family’s house at an early age, Maya told the podcast “Y esta es la historia” that it was an emotionally complex decision to make, but the difficulties made her who she is today.
A couple of years later, Maya was hired by a digital marketing agency, with which she not only furthered her studies in the field through courses and certifications, but also discovered her love for creating social media content.
Career
Maya Nazor’s earliest content on the internet is on her YouTube channel, which she started in 2015 to share content related to her personal life. Her initial success on the platform wasn’t massive, and she eventually deleted many of her oldest videos, though some of them from as early as 2018 are still available on the video-sharing platform.
Fast forward to 2020, Maya Nazor left her job at the marketing agency to return to Cancun to join a famous restaurant chain as a model, but she didn’t pass the interview. Nonetheless, being quarantined during the COVID-19 pandemic gave Maya enough free time to grow her social media presence, especially when it comes to TikTok. Her first hit in the short video app was a dance routine which conquered the hearts of millions, and gained her hundreds of thousands of followers in a very short time.
These days, Maya’s TikTok following is over the eight million mark, though she’s also found lots of success on Instagram thanks to her modeling pics. She also occasionally creates videos for YouTube, but she’s affirmed that it’s very complex for her to share content on the platform due to her busy schedule. Nonetheless, that hasn’t stopped her channel from gaining over 200,000 subscribers.
In 2023, Maya took a huge step forward in her modeling career, by appearing on the cover of Playboy Mexico.
Personal Life
Maya Nazor’s relationship with the famous rapper Santa Fe Klan put her under the spotlight of the Mexican entertainment industry in recent years. It’s unclear when exactly the pair met, but they officially started dating in mid-2021 when the rapper, whose real name is Angel Jair Quezada Jasso, asked Maya to be his girlfriend at a private party in which he sang romantic songs for her.
Right from the start, Maya and Angel didn’t shy away from showing their love for the rest of the world to see on social media. Late that year, they announced they were expecting their first child, a boy named Luka who was born in June 2022. As Maya affirmed in an interview with the podcast “Y esta es la historia”, she wasn’t quite convinced about having a baby due to her age, and how fresh her relationship with Angel was at the time, but the rapper convinced her, and both became excited with the idea of becoming parents.
Unfortunately, Maya and Santa Fe Klan broke up in late 2022, taking their fans by surprise; neither of them revealed the reason for the split, but Maya said in an Instagram Live that the decision to split was mutual. She also affirmed that their separation was only as a couple, as they remained ‘a family’ because they shared a child.
Controversies
Following her split from Santa Fe Klan, Maya faced waves of backlash due to the alleged child support she asked for from her former boyfriend. Back then, it was said that she asked for almost $12,000 from him, a number which was considered extremely high by his followers.
Maya fervently denied these claims in an Instagram Live from December 2022, in which she also asked her followers to respect her family.
Later in May 2023, Maya told YouTuber Amy Rey that she didn’t have any idea if the child support rumors came from someone who particularly hated her, or if these were made up by a tabloid fishing for views. As she revealed, her son’s father was also astonished when those rumors circulated, as at the time they were still processing their separation, and hadn’t had any talks about financial topics.
Although several rumors about the allegedly rocky relationship between the former couple surfaced after their separation, Maya and Santa Fe Klan keep most details about their bond as co-parents on a low level.
Physical Appearance
Maya Nazor is a woman of White ethnicity. She has green eyes and blonde hair, on top of having a gorgeous appearance which is often praised by her followers. She’s 5ft 3ins (1.62m) tall, but her weight is unknown.
As Maya revealed on her social media in August 2023, she had breast augmentation and arm liposuction surgeries to enhance her figure. It’s unclear whether Maya had undergone any other plastic surgery procedures before, but she claimed to feel ‘very happy’ about the latest changes she made to her body.

Net Worth
Some online sources estimate Maya Nazor’s net worth at $1 million and even higher, but there are good reasons to believe her actual fortune is lower than that. Despite the huge following she has on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram, Maya’s career as an influencer and model is still in its early stages. Nonetheless, her fortune will surely increase as her promising career moves forward.
