The artist Carmen Sevilla was admitted in critical condition at the Fundación Jiménez Díaz University Hospital in Madrid last Sunday due to various complications in her state of health. The actress could barely last a couple of days and finally she passed away on Tuesday, July 27.
His death has left Spain without one of its greatest national treasures, but the presenter had been fighting Alzheimer’s for more than 13 years, a disease that had made the artist who succeeded in our country a stranger even to her own family.
As a result of the admission and the subsequent death of the actress, much has been said about the great role that her only son played in life. Augusto Algueró was born as a result of the artist’s marriage to the composer and music producer Augusto Algueró, who died in 2011.
Although Sevilla lived in a luxury residence since 2015, Algueró has not left her alone at any time and has been a key figure in her last years of life. Despite the fact that the man prefers to live anonymously, the son of Carmen Sevilla dedicated some nice words to the media as he left the funeral home and thanked them for the respect and expressions of affection they have been receiving in recent days.
Carmen Sevilla and her son shared an unbreakable bond, but the actress told in her memoirs for Semana magazine that she had succeeded more as an artist than as a mother, since her son had to “endure his constant arguments with Algueró father from a very young age.” ‘.
The father of the family was an unfaithful man and did not hesitate to have dozens of adventures. The situation became complicated and Sevilla went through different depressions, but it was impossible for her to take the step and separate from her. In an attempt to find the best for her little one, the Sevillian woman decided to intern him in the Agustinos de El Escorial and later in Jaca.
In his first interview for the magazine Protagonista, from Grupo Zeta, he explained that he made his mother suffer a lot during his adolescence for various reasons, worse mainly because he smoked a lot and because when he left boarding school he decided to go live with his father, since he gave more freedom.
The artist’s son also recounted in said conversation that he had a hard time on many occasions in boarding schools, but that they were experiences that made him “wake up” and get to know himself better.
Carmen Sevilla was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2009, but it was not made public until 2012. During all these years of improvements and downturns, Algueró has silently accompanied her mother, with great affection and great sadness to see how the star it was fading little by little.
Some time ago, the man confessed in an interview that his mother did not recognize him and that it was very hard, but that he could not do anything other than put her in the hands of the best professionals.
