According to Semana magazine, the former GH VIP contestant had to be admitted to the HM Torrelodones University Hospital in Madrid for a health problem. According to sources close to the media, the seer was unwell and went to the medical center with the beginning of pneumonia that made the professionals decide to admit him urgently.
In addition, according to information provided by the magazine, medical professionals are taking advantage of the fact that the seer is hospitalized to carry out all kinds of tests and see what is the best possible treatment, in addition to ruling out major problems.
For a few years and with few exceptions, Rappel has not been part of the first line of the media in our country, although it still belongs to high places and is related to important public figures in Spain.
But what is undeniable is the fame and popularity that the seer acquired during the Franco era, since in his facet as a designer and couturier he came to dress important women and men of the time, such as Tita Cervera, Severo Ochoa, María de the Mercedes de Borbón and even Francisco Franco and Carmen Polo. All this, together with his unique personality, his participation in programs such as Tómbola and his increasing reputation as a psychic, made Rappel become a very popular figure in the media, reaching the top of Spanish society and participating in various talk shows and television spots.
