Máximo Huerta and Juan Castillo have ended their relationship after five years, as EL ESPAÑOL has exclusively revealed. This news comes at a time when Huerta is going through an excellent period professionally, thanks to the success of his literary work and his bookstore in Buñol.

Huerta, who has been applauded for his work A Store in Paris, is also the owner of the successful bookstore La Biblioteca de Doña Leo, which opened its doors last January to pay tribute to his mother and fill a void in the town. that I didn’t have a place to buy books. Castillo, who moved from Fuerteventura to the Valencian Community to be closer to the former Minister of Culture, was very involved in this project.

However, the end of the relationship has led Juan to separate from the business they shared. Now it is Nuria, a good friend of Máximo, who has taken the reins of the establishment, as reflected on the establishment’s website.

Despite their separation, Máximo and Juan remain in contact on social networks, where they continue to follow each other and keep their photos together. The ex-couple’s entourage, as EL ESPAÑOL has pointed out, is aware of the situation, although the exact causes of the separation remain private.

Castillo has also been, and will surely continue to be, important to Huerta on a family level. Huerta’s mother, Clara Hernández, faces serious health problems, including a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s, which has deeply affected the lives of her mother and son. In fact, the writer abandoned her life in Madrid to take care of her until her last days and thus “accumulate peace.”

The fight against this disease, which has no cure, has left its mark on Huerta’s life, who stated in an interview in El Hormiguero that his mother’s illness has led him to moments in which in the mornings he recognizes her as his brother, and in the afternoons like his son. Of course, the woman does not know Castillo either, as Huerta confessed in a Friday Deluxe a few months ago. With these personal circumstances, the writer praised Castillo’s transfer, ensuring that it is “a proof of love that few people do.”
