These are not being easy days for the actor Rodolfo Sancho and his family. His eldest son, Daniel Sancho, is in provisional prison in Thailand after having confessed to the murder and dismemberment of Edwin Arrieta Arteaga, a Colombian surgeon with whom he was on vacation on an island in the Asian country. After the great commotion generated around this case, the actor from Mar de Plástico is in the media spotlight, for which his wife, Xènia Tostado, has come out to express how the couple feels at this moment and to ask for respect for their little daughter.

As we said, the 29-year-old chef’s family is in the spotlight after the news of the murder came to light. After seven days of silence, Rodolfo’s wife, also an actress Xènia Tostado, has broken her silence in a statement that has been made public through the Europa Press agency. “I’ve been feeling the need for days to express my concern and the fear that I feel as a mother,” she begins by saying, referring to their common daughter. It should be remembered that Daniel is the result of the actor’s relationship with Silvia Bronchalo.

“We don’t know if we are safe. My daughter lives completely outside of everything that is happening and it will be that way as long as we can and they allow us to,” he continues. And it is that for the couple right now the priority is the small one. “I am next to my partner, Rodolfo Sancho, in this deep pain that he is going through as a father, nobody has an idea. I can only say that, from the strength that we are both, we are going to protect our daughter above all else, She is our priority,” he says.

The statement concludes with a desperate request from the Sin tetas no hay paraíso actress. “As a mother, I pray with all my heart that they keep us out of the way. My daughter is just a girl,” she says. Xènia is currently the unconditional support of Rodolfo, who is in one of the most delicate moments of his life. The couple has been in a relationship for nearly two decades and went down the aisle in 2005.

For his part, the first statements by the actor from The Ministry of Time on television came this Friday morning. Antena 3 and its Espejo Público spoke to him exclusively. The space reporter, Álex González, has been in charge of speaking with him by phone. “A very brief call in which he was very clear,” said the journalist. “At the moment I am firm and calm. I will contact you and I appreciate your love. And thank you very much for your understanding,” said the actor to the aforementioned program.

This was not Rodolfo Sancho’s first public ‘movement’. After the news came to light last Saturday, the actor issued a statement shared by Europa Press in which he asked for “maximum respect” for his son and the rest of the family at these “so delicate” moments for all of them. “I beg the media to refrain from issuing any hasty judgment in the face of the latest events,” he said then. On the other hand, this Thursday the family sent a note expressing their regret. “We are very sorry for Edwin’s death and we accompany his family in sentiment,” they said in a letter sent to the EFE agency.
