The death of Silvia Tortosa at the age of 77 left a considerable void in the audiovisual and theatrical world this past week. Participant in projects as diverse and extensive as the case of Farmacia de Guardia, Curro Jiménez and Hostal Royal Manzanares, the Barcelona native has earned a place among those performers who will be remembered for decades, and who now leave sad reactions in their wake. .
“It has all been very unexpected. No one expected it. We have had some terribly hard years in every sense. And after she, who was a fighter, overcame breast cancer, this complication came to her that has been devastating. It was, as she happened to his father, that the disease took him in a month with something very similar,” said Carlos Cánovas, his widower, in statements to the newspaper ABC.
However, right now an important unknown hangs over his figure: inheritance. Despite having been married to Cánovas for 17 years, the outcome of this question is still unresolved. And the two were separated for eight months and the actress has practically no direct family to whom to allocate these assets. She had no brothers or sisters, and her parents also died years ago.
After several consultations, multiple sources have found out that, today, his closest relatives are his cousins ??Elisenda, Laura and Cristina, who could end up receiving said inheritance. Regarding Cánovas, the situation that he is currently experiencing is also unknown, and the media assured that the relationship between the couple did not end in the best possible way, which is why he fears that he will be presented as a “grieving widower.”
Furthermore, the photographer would be fulfilling Tortosa’s last wish, emerging from this stormy period. The actress wanted her ex-husband not to be present during her final goodbye: “He is not expected at that farewell funeral. I just received a message from these people who have been hand in hand with her these days and are freaking out about these types of statements from Carlos. “They don’t expect him and they don’t want him to go.”
“There is a background that we do not know and that Carlos plays with that trick that he knew perfectly well that Silvia was very discreet and that he did not want anything about his private life to transcend, but, coincidentally, this environment knows the problems that there have been,” they were some of the comments that arose during the last Fiesta program. In addition, people close to his circle assured that he had a relationship with the actress Marina Lozano and lived in her apartment in Alcalá de Henares.
