Candela Peña has become one of the most popular faces of the Late Xou program, the public channel’s television program, presented by Marc Giró and which interviews a current personality every week. The actress, who will soon premiere a miniseries about the Asunta case on Netflix, attended the comedy format as a guest a few months ago.
However, her fun attitude and her self-confidence when facing Marc Guiró’s questions were the key point for the program to make the decision to sign the interpreter as a collaborator. In this way, viewers of the format can enjoy Candela Peña every week. An intervention that does not go unnoticed, since the actress has managed to capture everyone’s attention with her hilarious anecdotes.
This past Monday, February 5, the actress once again left the presenter speechless with her bizarre stories. At one point in the program, Marc Giró asked the performer about a supposed trip that he had planned with fellow actor Hugo Silva, who is nominated in the category of best supporting actor at the Goya Awards.
Suddenly, Candela Peña radically changed the subject and said the following: ”I’m going to say something that isn’t going to sit well with Hugo. My first boyfriend, the one who turned me from a girl into a woman (…) I lost my virginity to one who is also nominated.”
After several seconds of regret, the actress clarified that one of those who was nominated with Hugo Silva had been her first boyfriend. ”I love him very much, so my heart is broken, well not because I don’t know Hugo very much, I want Juan Carlos Vellido to win,” she declared. And it is just as she said, the nominee for best supporting actor at the Goya Awards and she had a relationship of more than ten years.
But this was not the only anecdote that the Hierro interpreter wanted to tell. Peña left viewers speechless when she told the surreal experience she had experienced at a fashion show in Milan. And the pressure of being surrounded by international celebrities took its toll on the actress, who said that she developed herpes from her nerves.
To treat herpes, he decided to apply acyclovir ointment, thinking it would relieve the symptoms. However, the remedy was worse than the disease and days later her face with the ointment was present on the pages of magazines. ”It said ‘Look what’s been left’, as if I had been snorting some kind of substance and there was something left behind (…) I thought to myself, what terrible people,” he confessed.
