Return to the ring of love: how to escape from your own wedding and be forgiven for the 'espantá', keys to the reconciliation between Juan Ortega and Carmen Otte

The years in the ring did not train him to face the bravest bull: the fear of commitment. A little over a week ago the name of Juan Ortega He crossed the borders of bullfighting and made headlines and on television sets because, by trusting so much, the bull caught him, metaphorically. On December 2, Jerez de la Frontera was dressed for a wedding, but the day took an unexpected turn when the right-hander left his girlfriend, Carmen Otte, planted on the altar. Since then it has been said that the cardiologist has locked herself away to cry profusely, that the Sevillian has been praying from church to church looking haggard and that their relationship was dying forever, but, to the surprise of many… we have reconciliation.

In one fell swoop the agony of the protagonists of this story has disappeared. Specifically, there have been ten days of noise that for both of them will have lasted, at least, ten years, the time they have been together. The trickle of information about their non-wedding has been incessant for those who are somewhat lost in this folkloric story full of ironies. Therefore, it is worth starting at the beginning: on December 2, Otte, 33 years old, the same age as the bullfighter, was chatting happily at the hairdresser's, a few hours before the ceremony, when he received a call that would change him. everything: Ortega was restless, terrified. For the first time I did not want to set foot in the church of Santiago de Jerez. She wasn't going to get married. She could not.

The person in charge of communicating this hasty decision was the bride's sister. And he did it as best he could, since the event was not exactly for intimates. About 500 people were invited to the link. The writer told it Juan del Val: Many of the attendees found out about the cancellation of the wedding when they were already in the vicinity of the temple. “They tell us that he has doubts,” Del Val recalled a few days ago in La Roca. A few days ago, the groom had conveyed his insecurities to the priest who was going to officiate the wedding, Josep María Quintana.

“She called him on the phone with the doubts she had, and the priest told her not to get married,” Pilar Vidal revealed. “I don't see it! I just don't see it!” The journalist assured that the bullfighter told the priest. Well no, he didn't see it. Half an hour after the event, neither he nor the cardiologist were in the church. It didn't take long for the news to reach television. Total disaster. The bullfighter took refuge in his close circle and opted for silence – also on Instagram, where he omitted comments on his publications. For her part, Otte listened to the opinions of her family and friends, who advised her to take advantage of the honeymoon to go on a getaway with her friends. Also to remind him that the right-hander owed him all the money that they had not been able to take advantage of: 70,000 euros which later rose to 90,000. Little joke and a lot of stress.

It is said that the right-hander's relationship with the young woman's father was not the best and that for a few months things had not been going well between the couple. Also that third parties have influenced. They took time to reflect on this and the failed celebration, each one on their own. The health worker spent a few days in Rota, Malaga, leaning on the arms of a good friend after supposedly throwing her wedding dress out the window. All very dramatic, in the purest style Cousins, that Spanish comedy in which Quim Gutiérrez cried in disbelief day in and day out at his girlfriend's sit-in. For his part, the bullfighter marked a good route of brotherhood and lamentations. At first it was reported that he was in a small municipality of Checa, in Guadalajara. His parents have a house there that served as a refuge from the storm. Then it was said that he went to a good friend's farm. Others claimed to have seen him one morning praying, knackered, in a church in the Salamanca neighborhood of Madrid.

However, the bullfighter's attempts to reach a successful conclusion seem to have borne fruit. The confidential He reported this Tuesday that it has been possible to give himself a second chance. “Juan is a very thoughtful person, if he has made that decision I don't think he is capable of changing now. In this story everyone suffers, although obviously he is the one who makes the decision, but he does it because he thinks it is the best for the people.” two; in feelings he cannot command,” Otte's entourage comments to the aforementioned media. Well, nothing, with the marks on the body and the pain still tender, Ortega like Chayanne: “Bullfighter. Put your soul in the ring. No matter what happens. So you know that I love you.”
