Genoveva Casanova hooks up with a billionaire passionate about horses: who is her new love

We don’t sleep together Genoveva Casanova said not many years ago, when she was a long-time girlfriend of the former minister Jose Maria Michavila. The ex-wife of Cayetano Martínez de Irujo has always shown great modesty when it comes to displaying her relationships, although with the one who was the holder of the Justice portfolio with Aznar, with whom he had an intermittent but long romance, came to pose in some photo call and go to public actor. That ended and José María Michavila married Alejandra Salinas, niece of Mercedes Dear and related to the Romanovs.




Not so visible were his love affairs with Gonzalo Vargas Llosa. The Mexican woman and the son of the Nobel Prize winner were lovers but theirs did not prosper: it is a pity, because surely Isabella Preysler she would have loved to have as a ‘daughter-in-law’ who she was, now without quotes, from the Duchess of Alba.

now the magazine Week It brings some very revealing images to its cover, because they show that, about to turn 46, Genoveva Casanova has a boyfriend, a friend for years, with whom we had seen her, but who now becomes a new love. He is a rancher, and very rich, which is always good.




golden bachelor

Let’s not forget those statements by the Mexican, when she said that she and her children had difficulties making ends meet and that on some occasion they did not have toys for Reyes. Considered one of the golden singles of the Andalusian panorama, he is still single, he never went through the altar or the court to get married and it has been published that he is cheerful and very party-oriented. This agricultural businessman, international driving judge and international track manager, is the third of four brothers whose passion for driving has led him to live between the countryside and the city. A little over ten years ago he received a kidney transplant. Genoveva lives in Madrid, near El Retiro, where she is often seen walking her dog.

Jose Manuel Gayan Pacheco He is ten years older than Genoveva. He is a millionaire Andalusian cattle breeder, president of the Spanish Purebred Lusitano Association (Aespl), owner of large tracts of land in Andalusia and Portugal and whose great passion, in addition to his Mexican one, is driving horses. He must love Mexico because some of his nags have Mexican names, like Guanaujato or Güero.

Genoveva has never hidden her friendship with this businessman. A year and a half ago we saw her together with Gayán at the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art with her compatriot, the former de Alejandro Sanz, Jaydy Michel and her husband, the former soccer player Rafael Marquez. They were also in the cellars of González Byass, where every August the Tío Pepe Festival is celebrated. On that occasion, Genoveva and her friends stayed at a farm that Gayán Pacheco has on the outskirts of Seville.

On the other hand, Genoveva maintains a magnificent relationship not only with her ex-husband, but also with the twenty-something with whom Cayetano Martínez de Irujo rebuilt his love life years ago and who seems to have given him great stability. She has seen the Mexican on many occasions with her two children Luis and Amina, and the girlfriend of the son of the Duchess of Alba, for example in horse riding. The other great passion that unites the Duke of Arjona and the farmer Jose Manuel Gayan Pacheco are the horses.
