The actor Miguel Ángel Muñoz has suffered a severe setback with the death of Luisa Cantero, a woman he affectionately called “Tata”. The actor himself was in charge of announcing the news of the death on Saturday, July 22, through a publication on his social networks: “Saying goodbye to you has not been easy, I have been preparing myself for more than 10 years and until we spent those more than 100 days together during the pandemic, I did not really feel that I was ready to let you go.”
“I’m sorry if I was somewhat selfish by not being able to let go of you before and I thank you for your tireless effort not to say goodbye until I was ready like this last time,” he wrote very excitedly before his more than 900,000 followers of the platform.
The “Tata” was the sister of Muñoz’s great-grandmother and their close bond was born when the actor was just a child: “My parents were very young and did not have the resources to hire someone to take care of me while they worked.” Since then, they have always stayed together and the artist has revealed on more than one occasion that Cantero was “his greatest support.”
Fans of the curious couple were able to witness this connection through the documentary 100 days with Tata, an audiovisual project that Muñoz prepared with his aunt during the pandemic and which premiered on the Netflix digital platform to good reviews.
A couple of days after the woman’s departure, Muñoz shared some “last words from heaven” through the Instagram profile dedicated to his “Tata”: “Dear friends, I am writing these words to you from heaven. Yes, I spoke with Miguelito before I left so that I could say goodbye to all of you through this little message. That’s why we put this little photo together to say goodbye because we’ve been together until the end, like when he was that little and I took him to work.”
The message, which has touched thousands of people in our country, explains that the artist’s aunt left grateful and happy for everything she had experienced: ”I thank you for being so kind and affectionate to me, I don’t think I deserve that much love, even though the child says yes (…) I’m going to heaven, GRATEFUL, HAPPY and full of LOVE. I am many years old (98) and I could never have imagined everything I have experienced in these last years of my life. I wish you a lot of health for all of you and that you enjoy life because it is what you are going to stay with”.
Since the news of the woman’s death was made public, Muñoz has not stopped receiving messages and comments of love and affection, but also of sadness because the “Tata” had thousands of fans from all over the world.
”Your body has left but you are still with us in our hearts”, ”Today heaven is celebrating! Thank you beautiful Tata for the teachings you left us” or ”I am the director of a nursing home. I love older people, I love what you’ve done with the tata. I am writing this message to you with tears in my eyes” are some of the comments that can be read in the ‘Tata’s’ farewell publication on Instagram.
