Over the years, many people will have wondered what happened to Charo after the 70s ended, so we're happy to fill in the blanks. Charo is still with us, and we'd tell you how old she is, but nobody knows. At one point she claimed it was 1941, but as she got older, she adjusted her age down, seeming to finally settle on 1949.
The reason for Charo's sudden disappearance from television is simple - she left the United States mainland and moved to Hawaii. She still performed there, but it was at her own dinner and theater bar, where she seemed to be happy away from the world's glare. She does still make the occasional reality television appearance as herself, most notably in the 2017 series of 'Dancing with the Stars.' Unfortunately for Charo fans, it wasn't a memorable stint on the show - she was voted off in the second week.
