The death of Laura Valenzuela at the age of 92 has left the world of television an orphan. The first Spanish presenter died on March 17 at the La Princesa hospital in Madrid after a relapse of an infection. Numerous well-known faces have wanted to say goodbye to the Sevillian, including Terelu Campos and Carmen Borrego.
The Campos clan has always been very close to Valenzuela and Lara Dibildos, his daughter. Both families have been sharing experiences for years and, precisely, it was in Sálvame where Terelu tearfully announced the death of one of her great friends. However, María Teresa Campos, matriarch of the clan and also retired from public life, still does not know that one of her best companions has died.
Terelu was the first to warn that the communicator was not aware: “I would not like to talk about my mother. Understand that my mother’s situation is not to be treated publicly. I think she deserves the respect and privacy that she should have with age it has and in the condition it is in”.
Carmen Borrego, who went to the funeral home on Saturday, March 18, gave more details about the reasons that led to hiding Valenzuela’s death from her mother: “We believe that at this time it is not convenient because the first thing I would say is: Take me. And I don’t think she’s in any condition to be here right now. She’d like to give Lara a big kiss.”
Therefore, given the delicate situation in which the veteran communicator finds herself, her daughters have preferred to save her suffering. Even so, Borrego qualified that “for the moment” they will continue like this, so it is possible that they will finally tell María Teresa Campos about the death of her great friend.
This is not the first time that the Campos decide to ignore some information looking at the health of their mother, whose state of health is unknown despite the fact that their daughters have established parallels with Valenzuela herself or Concha Velasco. In this sense, Terelu and Carmen also preferred not to tell her mother about the controversies with Gustavo Guillermo, her driver and trusted man, as well as all the statements from the Mustache Arrocet family.
