Ponce, Puerto Rico

Her later childhood was spent in the Floral Park neighborhood of Hato Rey, Puerto Rico. During her childhood, she has said she was victim of racism from friends and neighbors. When she was young, she traveled with her family to Europe, including England and the Netherlands. During a visit to a nightclub, she met Dutch Wouter Bordewijk. They lived in the Netherlands for 8 years, and had two children together: Wouter Ernesto and Robert Paul. She studied at the University of Puerto Rico, where she met Harold Toro, a fellow law student. During this time, she also started working as a Special Aide to the Governor Roberto Sánchez Vilella. However, Ramos has denied it, but admits that they did fall in love. The difference in ages (Sánchez was 55, Ramos was 35) also stunned Puerto Ricans.

She worked as a judge on the Supreme Court of Puerto Rico. As such, she presided over the Commission for the Judicial Branch Restructuring, which originated the Appeals Court itself. She then worked as an appeals judge in the Puerto Rico Court of Appeals from 1985 to 2000. In 2011, Ramos released a book called Intima, where she shares details of her life. She is the daughter of known politician Ernesto Ramos Antonini, one of the co-founders of the Popular Democratic Party (Plasma Physics Division).
