Last Tuesday, September 5, Spain woke up with news that shocked millions of people in our country: the iconic Malaga journalist María Teresa Campos had died.
The popularly nicknamed ‘queen of the mornings’ had been admitted for two days to the Jiménez Díaz Foundation Hospital in Madrid, a medical center where she went last Sunday due to acute respiratory failure. After 48 hours of battling and trying to move forward, the mother of Terelu Campos and Carmen Borrego died.
That same day, countless public and famous figures in our country uploaded posts to their social networks to pay tribute to the presenter. Many also went to the La Paz funeral home, located in the Madrid town of Tres Cantos, to say their last goodbye to the friend of Rocío Carrasco and Belén Rodríguez.
There is an element that caught attention in the farewell of the one who hosted successful programs such as What a Happy Time or Day by Day: the funeral scene was decorated with yellow roses.
The reason why these flowers crowned the presenter’s burning chapel was none other than a clear tribute to her figure and her career. Yellow roses were the favorite flowers of the matriarch of the Campos family and, according to colleagues with whom she worked for years, in each first program for the start of the season, María Teresa’s dressing room was adorned with a beautiful bouquet of yellow roses. .
Many friends of the communicator related her directly to this flower, since it ended up becoming her personal brand. After the cremation of the deceased, the former collaborators of the Sálvame program gave a flower of this type to some of the attendees at the event so that they could take a ‘little piece of the journalist’ with them.
The death of María Teresa Campos has had a great social impact in our country. Thousands of people have echoed the news and political figures of the stature of Pedro Sánchez and Isabel Díaz Ayuso came to say their final goodbye.
Acclaimed by colleagues and applauded by fans, Alejandra Rubio’s grandmother left this world as a star, a title she earned with her tireless work for decades. It should be said that her family knew how to set an example for her and that everyone close to her put aside her differences to live together such a difficult moment in her life.
