Morena married Gustavo Yankelevich in December 1974. Her husband became the producer of some of the biggest hits in the country, including "Mesa de Noticias", and, in 1989, he became director of Telefe and, under his leadership, the channel became Argentina's most-watched TV channel. He was directly or indirectly responsible for some of Argentina's biggest television shows including "Susana Giménez", "Showmatch", among many others. He left the channel in 1999 and, in the following year, founded his own production company, RGB Entertainment. In 2002, so she could produce "Rebelde Way", Morena also founded her own company, Cris Morena Group. From "Floricienta" in 2004 until "Casi Angeles" in 2010, RGB was a co-producer of all CMG ventures. Despite being associates and business partners, Morena and Gustavo have been divorced since 1996. Their two children, Romina Yan, who died in 2010, and Tomás Yankelevich, were both involved in show business.
