The acting life can have more than one irony attached to the character that is embodied in front of the cameras. Often, coincidences surpass reality and leave their protagonists in places one would not expect. This is the case of María Castro, the actress who plays the role of Doña Pía in The Promise, on Spanish Television. The Vigo native announced in December that she was pregnant, after her character had gone through the same thing on screen.
Despite this, the Galician has continued with her work on the series in recent weeks, without encountering too many difficulties. However, all that has changed this past Thursday, judging by the post she shared on her Instagram profile. In it, Castro shows how her maid’s uniform, part of the characterization of her character, has torn precisely in the belly area. A fact that at least has not made him feel bad.
“When your suit doesn’t close, there is only one way to take it… With humor! Come on, like everything in life. With Humor and LOVE… little heart painted through. 8 more weeks working on The Promise and covering up this roundness as best as possible… and I’ll tell you one thing: either there’s a lack of fabric or there’s plenty of guts! Thank you Amanda Marugán for always having the phone at hand, to capture all my ‘bullshit’,” expressed the woman from Vigo.
Given this situation, the publication has been filled with reactions and surprised responses. A multitude of questions have also arisen, such as what will happen to Doña Pía’s character during her maternity absence and also up to what week of pregnancy she can continue filming. “I love your belly, I love The Promise and I love you, you are a wonderful actress, I really like everything you do,” one user pointed out.
“Let the maids leave you an apron, your baby is going to get cold,” indicated another response, with internal references to the production of La 1. The photograph has more than 12,000 likes since it was published, But María Castro is not the only one who shares her pregnancy. Since her first confirmation, the actress has been sharing her evolution in one way or another, mainly on her social networks.
In fact, one of her most popular and original publications was shared when revealing the sex of the creature, asking her Golden Retriever, Momo, for help: “Momo, I’m going to have a baby, please take what I’m not going to have.” have, make no mistake that people are waiting, eh.” Of the two toys she gave him to choose from, stuffed animals of Peppa and George Pig, her pet went to her brother, with Maria holding Peppa and revealing that she would have a girl.
