During the peak of her career she married her frequent co-star Antonio Aguilar, with whom she procreated the actors and singers Antonio Aguilar Jr. and Pepe Aguilar. Besides being internationally recognized in cinema, Silvestre also became the image of a popular comic book entitled, La Llanera Vengadora.[4] She is the elder sister of singer and actress Enriqueta Jiménez.
