María de los Ángeles del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús Trujillo Martínez (born 10 June 1939, in Neuilly-sur-Seine, Paris, France), known as Angelita Trujillo, is a Dominican writer. She is most known by her role as the predilect daughter of former Dominican Republic dictator' Rafael Trujillo.

Angelita Trujillo is the daughter of Dominican Republic’s strongman Generalissimo Rafael Trujillo and his third wife María de los Ángeles Martínez y Alba, known as la Españolita because of her Spanish origin.

Trujillo enjoyed a privileged childhood. She was a special envoy of the Dominican government to the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom in 1953. Two years later, it was held in Trujillo City (present-day Santo Domingo) the Fair for the Peace and Fraternity of the Free World, where the 16-year-old Angelita, was crowned as "Queen Angelita I" to preside over the world's fair.

After her father’s assassination in 1961, the Trujillo family went into exile to Paris and later to Madrid. In Spain, Trujillo divorced Colonel Luis José León Estévez. After 7 years in Madrid, Trujillo moved to New York City, where she met Colonel Luis José Domínguez Rodríguez, and married him.

Trujillo married Luis José León Estévez and Luis José Domínguez Rodríguez, both colonels of the Dominican Air Force. León Estévez hailed from Canca La Piedra in Tamboril (Santiago Province) and was son of Manuel de Jesús León Jimenes and Dolores Ercilia Estévez Cabrera; Domínguez Rodríguez was native to Gurabo (Santiago Province) and his parents were José Ramón Domínguez Méndez and Mercedes Cervanda Rodríguez Taveras.
