Last Friday one of the women who has starred in the most heart covers in our country died at her home in Madrid: Marta Chávarri. Álvaro Falcó’s mother died at the age of 62 due to a stroke, according to what Paloma Barrientos told in El Programa de Ana Rosa, a television space in which she collaborates.
The woman did not have any serious illness and did not present any type of difficulty in her state of health, which is why she left Spanish society and her family and friends in shock when she died suddenly.
The assistant to Tamara Falcó’s aunt-in-law was the person who found the lifeless body of the deceased and, although she acted quickly and efficiently by calling the medical services, the professionals could not do anything to save Chávarri’s life.
This event has completely broken the schemes of his family. A little over a month ago, the son of the deceased, Álvaro Falcó had his first daughter with Isabelle Junot, a girl from whom Chávarri did not part for weeks. When he spoke to the press before his mother’s funeral, Falcó was sincere and shared the great pain he is experiencing: “We are devastated. He has taken us by surprise. She was in a magnificent moment, she was very excited about her granddaughter, she was physically fine, mentally phenomenal.
Her sister, Isabel Chávarri, later declared very sadly to the media that she could not believe that Marta had died and that she was a fundamental pillar of her life: “She was happy with her granddaughter. She was the best in the world. The best person, the best mother, the best sister, the best. The best”.
The former Marquise of Cubas had been away from the spotlight and the mainstream media for decades, but there was a time when she starred on the covers week after week. After the news of her death, many journalists and paparazzi of the time have admitted that the treatment the woman received was not “fair” at all and that she suffered a lot due to media pressure.
After losing her mother at the age of 19, Chávarri’s relationship with her brother Álvaro became closer than ever. In 1991, when the woman had just divorced Fernando Falcó and her relationship with Alberto Cortina occupied all the headlines in the pink media, Chávarri received a call that broke her heart: her brother had died.
The young man had an accident on the highway with his motorcycle and died before turning 30 (he had been with his sister for less than a year). The news left the whole family devastated. The love that the protagonist felt for her brother was so great that some time ago she had chosen her name to baptize her only son: Álvaro Falcó Chávarri.
