Unfortunately, it didn’t seem like a night out at the casino was doing that much good for Guadalupe’s spirits as the eyewitness continued, "She was having a bad night at the slots, too!"

The mother to 41-year-old Jennifer, who has twin 3-year-olds with Marc, made the best out of the night by taking in a performance by Smokey Robinson after hitting the slots.
