The end of Sálvame brought about radical changes in the careers of many long-term collaborators. After fourteen years broadcasting every afternoon on Telecinco, Jorge Javier Vázquez’s program closed its doors last June, closing a stage for the bulk of his team. However, eight of the most prominent members were chosen for an adventure in Miami via Netflix. One of them is Kiko Hernández, who has criticized Cristina Tárrega.
The journalist opened the doors of his home to the Lecturas magazine team to publish various aspects of his life in this week’s issue. Hernández spoke at length about his homosexuality, confessing how hard it was for him to come out of the closet for fear of acknowledging his feelings. However, he also had the opportunity to openly criticize the presenter, after she wished and celebrated the cancellation of Sálvame behind her back.
After a first event that was covered exhaustively by his program and also by the Fiesta team, Kiko Hernández will finally marry Fran Antón in Melilla on September 16. “Since I am in love with Fran Antón, I am another person. Being with him has changed everything for me. It is the most beautiful love story I have ever experienced”, declared the collaborator. In the same way, he felt that with him he was able to leave behind the times in which he was not honest with himself.
Hernández also revealed that his teammates will be present at the ceremony in two months’ time. According to his words, it was Fran Antón’s own idea. “Fran told me to invite everyone. There he has changed me in everything, but above all he has taken away my bad temper. I tell him: ‘Don’t take the Potota (Carmen Borrego) thing from me, I love it.’ He tells me that he does it for my good ”, he expressed in the interview with Lecturas.
“I wasn’t afraid to say I was gay, but I was afraid to say ‘I’m in love.’ There are people who have been very obsessed with my coming out of the closet, ”he said, taking the opportunity to throw a dart at Chelo García Cortés. “Some take refuge in bisexuality so as not to define themselves. There is also fear of pronouncing the word lesbian. That there are ladies who say: ‘No, I am bisexual, because in the year 1514 I was one day with a man with a beard,’” he said.
Regarding the controversy with Cristina Tárrega, Hernández confessed that the words he said to them were very different: “People shit when they see me, but I know that there are colleagues who have experienced how Cristina Tárrega approached and said: ‘thank goodness that they remove this program, which is crap’. Hasn’t she had the balls to say it until now? Every time she came to do the publicis she licked all of our asses and she told us: ‘What a marvelous program!’”.
