Anderson Silva parents: Meet Juarez Silva & Vera Lúcia da Silva
The martial artist was given the sign of Aries at birth; he was born on April 14, 1975, in Sao Paulo, State of Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Anderson Silva was born into a low-income family of Juarez Silva, his father, and Vera Lcia Da Silva, his mother. Because of their meager income, his family was unable to support their kids and was frequently separated from them.
