Esther Grace Pujols is now 10 years old. Pujols was born on September 16, 2012, in Kansas City, Missouri. Although her family lived mainly in St. Louis, also in Missouri, they had a house in Kansas City too. They were there because Albert Pujols' team, the Los Angeles Angels, had a game in Kansas City.

It was thought that Pujols would be born in the first week of October, around October 3rd. But she surprised everyone by coming a bit earlier. She was born at 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, September 16, 2012. She weighed 7.3 pounds and was 19½ inches long when she was born. 

Esther has a special mix of Dominican and American heritage. She's a citizen of the United States and also has Dominican roots. Her famous dad, Albert Pujols, comes from the Dominican Republic, a country in the Caribbean.  

Albert was born and raised in Santo Domingo, the capital of the Dominican Republic. In 1996, Pujols, along with his dad and grandmother, moved to the United States and settled in Washington Heights, New York City. After witnessing a shooting at a store, they moved to Independence, Missouri, which became Albert’s new home.

Albert went to Fort Osage High School, played baseball, and later got a baseball scholarship to Maple Woods Community College. Albert didn't become a U.S. citizen until February 2007 when he aced his citizenship test and was sworn in by U.S. District Judge E. Richard Webber.  

Esther’s mom, Deidre Pujols, has always been a U.S. citizen. She grew up in Roeland Park, a city in Kansas, United States. 

Esther Grace Pujols Education

Esther Grace Pujols goes to school in St. Louis, Missouri, although the name of her school isn't widely known. Even though she's a famous family's child, not everything about her life is public. Because her dad is famous, her parents choose to keep certain parts of her life private, including details about her and her siblings.  

We don't know her exact school, but based on her age, Pujols is most likely in Grade 5. This is usually the last year of elementary school or the first year of middle school.

Their connection was strong, and they fell deeply in love, leading to a speedy marriage on January 1, 2000.

Albert, Pujols' father, filed for divorce on April 4, 2022, and the divorce was finalized within the same month. The reason for their split was cited as irreconcilable differences.
