Carmen Sevilla passed away on June 27 at the age of 92, after her health worsened during the last weeks of her life. The actress, singer and presenter said her last goodbye this Thursday, July 13, at a funeral officiated in the Madrid church of San Antón, and organized by Rappel, also on television.
The death of ‘Spain’s bride’ has been surrounded by controversy due to the attitude of her son Augusto Algueró, who ultimately did not attend his mother’s farewell ceremony. However, he has sent a letter to Rappel in order to be read in public by the seer, and whose content is totally unknown up to now.
This is life, he has spoken with Rappel to try to find out more details about the letter. “He told me: ‘please, don’t open it and don’t read it until the act has started and in front of the people’; then, I keep the discretion, and now when I have a few words of thanks to those present I will open the letter and I will tell you Augusto’s last wish in this act”, he declared to the Telecinco program.
Algueró and Rappel have had an extensive and exciting conversation, which has left the seer almost in tears: “I am having a very bad day, I feel terrible, I am unable to stand up, in nervous tension, because on the one hand my My soul tells me that I have to go there and be with you, but on the other hand I can’t, I don’t have the strength,” Carmen Sevilla’s son confessed personally.
Rappel acknowledges that he is excited to be able to take charge of such an important project and say goodbye to his great friend Carmen Sevilla as she deserves. “Here I am, making a project come true that I wanted to do at this funeral; the people have responded, their close friends are here, and here we are,” said the seer.
It is about a friendship of more than half a century, as it was remembered in Así es la vida. The event was attended by a multitude of personalities close to the actress, and that Rappel has recalled visibly moved before the cameras of the Telecinco program.
