Bertin Osborne is in the news for the alleged paternity of the son of Gabriela Guillén as it was for his other relationships. But this time his image has fallen a lot due to his controversial behavior when it comes to assuming responsibilities and especially because of the things he has said in certain interviews such as the one in the magazine Hola, where he granted statements in exchange for money that left him at the horses' feet. In his old network, Mediaset, they don't want him: the audience data for his talk show was a huge setback; Now on Telecinco the ban has been lifted and they can't stop talking about him and his personal problems, such as his reported way of treating someone who claims to be the mother of his son. Antena 3 doesn't like him either and this week Susanna Griso was talking about his jokes, which she described as old and homophobic. Atresmedia has preferred to sign David Bustamate for Your face is familiar to me And that Bertín had offered. The singer turned 69 in December and is therefore of retirement age. This same week, after giving a concert in Alicante that he had had to postpone twice due to Covid, the man from Madrid said that he was thinking of leaving TV because he was “up to his balls,” literally.
Since he separated from Fabiola Martínez, For almost two years now, his name has been making headlines and not precisely because he sells more records than anyone else or sells out concerts. His talk show on Mediaset, My house is yours (previously In yours or mine, on TVE), was a resounding failure in the last season. From marking audiences above four million viewers, in its recent installments it went on to mark very disappointing figures. The data with Carlos Herrera (with María Zurita as a guest) did not reach 800,000 viewers or a 10% share.
When Osborne said the other day that he would leave television, he was not referring to his space on Canal Sur, El show de Bertín, he was referring to national television. The disappointment of the final season of Your house is mine It was very big. In addition to the aforementioned Carlos Herrera, he counted among his guests Nacho Cano, India Martínez and Fernando Verdasco, Isabel Preysler's son-in-law. The bomb was the presence of Jesulin, which gained a “stratospheric” cachet but did not achieve the expected audience success: the bullfighter from Ubrique scored less than half of what he had achieved in his previous interview with Bertín.
He is no longer shielded in either Mediaset or Atresmedia and the gossip programs hammer him
For this reason, and because it is a very expensive format, Mediaset decided not to renew its star and dispense with him after eight years. As Informalia has learned, Fabiola's ex was in negotiations with Atresmedia and Gestmusic to participate in the new edition of Your face is familiar to me as the big star of the show, but Bertín's requests were inadmissible and the network ended up rejecting his candidacy. It is not that Bertín has decided to leave it but that they have not reached an agreement. I do not help the image of Bertín after his statements and his attitude regarding the matter of his alleged fatherhood of Gabriela Guillén's son. Gestmusic belongs to the audiovisual giant Banijay, company that also owns, among others, Shine Iberiathe producer of MasterChef Celebrity. Bertín, as Lecturas magazine reveals, is negotiating his incorporation into talent and if his signing is confirmed it would mean the singer's return to TVE after 'betraying' them eight years ago to take their talk show and (In yours or mine) by Mediaset.
Bertín seems to have left Mediaset scalded, where he has worked as a presenter in the last years of his career, combining his role as host with his space on Canal Sur. On Telecinco he was one of the star presenters since 2016, when he left TVE. Fabiola Martínez and her eldest daughter, Alejandra Osborne, collaborated on the Proamagna program, but the latter, as we said, was a failure. Fuencarral had decided to dispense with his services. The ban was lifted from the multiple programs that make up Telecinco. Of the prudent treatment of Bertín as a character, when he was “one of ours”, he went on to sign Gabriela Guillén so that she could expand. Where before they protected him, they have stopped doing so and from morning to night they have talked about her friends and also about her supposed paternity. Maybe that's where she returned to TVE, if it closes. Has the time come to retire as he said? We think not.
