The driver Gustavo spent more than three decades almost at the foot of the bed of one of the greats of communication, Maria Teresa Campos: he acted as a faithful man, a chauffeur, an errand boy, a confidant and even a shoulder to cry on. But just before the mother of Terel y Carmen Borrego Gustavo left us forever, at the beginning of last September, he left his job, his salary, his way of life and he did it with nothing but his hands full: and with all the consequences that this entails, that is, leaving without a penny of compensation. The driver, perfectly aware of his boss’s situation, both in terms of her physical health and her financial health, refused to get a penny out of her, even if it was due to him. Gustavo found out that María Teresa, already very ill, was going to have problems paying him his compensation unless he himself said goodbye.
But there is more. Life turned upside down. Such was the economic situation of María Teresa before she died, almost eleven months ago, that at one point it was even Gustavo who had to help her. He decided to do it without thinking and without measuring the consequences that it would bring to him because now, a few months after that, Gustavo’s economic situation is more than worrying. According to what we are told, the driver is professionally lost. He participated in Supervivientes and took a good pinch of money, in addition to appearing in different television debates, but everything is coming to an end and Gustavo, who continues paying his mortgage as best he can, barely has enough to eat.
He doesn’t have a steady job and, what’s worse, he doesn’t even have a clear idea of what his options are. After Teresa Campos passed away, he tried his hand at being a television collaborator, in fact, he went to the Later, But for weeks now he has not heard anything from the TV, not even through “his representative”, Yola Berrocal “Gustavo is not going through a good moment and that affects him in everything.
Terelu and Carmen Borrego were very happy because Gustavo was still dragged away
Gustavo’s hardships do not only not upset Terelu Campos or Carmen Borrego. They consider him a traitor or a profiteer and are not comfortable with him having participated in the media circus and the media pie that they share, with Alejandra Rubio and, much to his chagrin, with Bigote Arrocet. But Gustavo feels a real affection for María Teresa. She considered him a son and he admits that emotionally he misses his “mother”, María Teresa a lot. He lived with her, practically 24/7, she was a second mother to him, as he has repeated a million times. In addition, with her he felt super protected and now it’s empty. As if that weren’t enough, he had no relationship with Carmen or Terelu. As he himself said, he doesn’t talk to one and he has blocked the other…”
He feels that they have behaved very, very badly towards him. They only defended him at first, but timidly, when they accused him of being the family’s spy, and since then the relationship deteriorated a lot. He could no longer trust them. He realized that they were only interested in making money, even if it was at his expense and his suffering.
His relationship with his girlfriend Ainhoa, deteriorated because she is poor
So Gustavo tries to carry on with his daily life, but even his relationship with Ainhoa is struggling. “She is 100% with him but she can’t get him to get better, to make decisions and to be cheerful and that ends up tiring and undermining the relationship. Lately they argue a lot. She also knows very well the relationship that her boyfriend has had with Teresa and it bothers her to the bottom of her heart how badly her daughters are behaving with him now.” But the worst thing is Gustavo’s future. “He feels that it is not easy for him. The money is running out, He is still paying his mortgage and sees no professional opportunity”The only quick way would be to confront his former boss’s daughters on the sets or to reveal Campos’s intimate details, but he refuses to do so. At least for now.
