More than three months have passed since the death of Carmen Sevilla at the age of 91 in Madrid. The actress died surrounded by family and loved ones, but her loss was a blow to everyone and she left the world of television and entertainment in mourning. Although the memory of her remains in people’s memories, she has not been able to prevent people from talking about her again because of what happened after her last goodbye, and not because of something nice.
The presenter’s ashes would still be in the Pozuelo de Alarcón funeral home more than 100 days later, as journalist Pilar Vidal revealed on ABC. With this, the singer’s cremated mortal remains would not have been collected by her son, Augusto Algueró. Something that he himself would have taken it upon himself to deny. After this, Seville is once again in the media spotlight, but this time for its jewels.
The Fiesta program wanted to put on the table the whereabouts of the jewels that Carmen Sevilla treasured over the years. And, according to what they said, not even the son himself knows where they are. Earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets of great value that the actress herself would have been responsible for making disappear. But the reason has surprised many.
At first, it was put on the table that this was due to the fact that she had to pawn them to face the financial problems generated by the debts during her marriage to Vicente Patuel. Although this could have happened with part of her trousseau, another, very different reason has now come to light.
An extensive debate between José Manuel Parada and Aurelio Manzano in the aforementioned program resulted in the fact that Carmen Sevilla’s assets could have been close to ten million euros, including a large part of her jewelry. However, everything has exploded into the air with a conversation that the journalist had with the deceased at one point in her life.
“I have never told it, but this way your son will have a little more light about what happened to those jewels,” Manzano began to relate. And the loss of his jewelry would not be due to financial problems. “I was planning to sell them while I was still alive at a charity auction because I didn’t want my daughter-in-law to keep them,” he said.
His son, Augusto Algueró, was married to Marta Díaz until 2015, when they decided to end their marriage. A relationship surrounded by controversy. According to Vanitatis, Carmen Sevilla herself was estranged from her son for a time because of her daughter-in-law. So it is not surprising that Aurelio Manzano’s information was true.
Although the actress’s initial idea, according to the journalist, was to sell all these jewels at a charity auction, it is not known if this happened or not after the arrival of her illness. Of course, part of these remains, according to several media outlets, in the Zaragoza cathedral, where Seville would have given them to the Virgen del Pilar.
