“I couldn’t sit idly by”

Ángel Cristo Jr insists that Bárbara Rey ruined his childhood. A week after leaking the photographs of his mother with Juan Carlos I in 1994, in the house that the ex-vedette had in Boadilla del Monte, her son gives new statements in which he assures that among the dangerous situations to which the former star would have exposed him, actress figures the moment when he had to save her from a dangerous “trap.”

Sofía Cristo’s brother has offered a new interview in the box to the magazine Readings in which this Wednesday he explains that, after learning of “blackmail” by the Crown against his mother, he moved heaven and earth to save her. “They wanted to play it and I couldn’t stay idly by.”“He says, emphasizing that he did his mother a favor after listening to some conversations through a listening system installed by himself.

In her conversation, she says that she intended to pay her mother with fraudulent checks that would put her in the crosshairs of international authorities. “My mother trusted the wrong people. There was talk of exorbitant amounts, and the checks were related to dark activities. If she had cashed them, she would have been arrested in a matter of hours,” says Ángel, who claims that she spent entire nights in the park where she was recording to get evidence and prevent Bárbara from cashing those checks.

“I heard conversations where they clearly said that as soon as she tried to cash those checks, they would arrest her. I ran home and told her: ‘Mom, they’re cheating on you,'” adds the former contestant Survivorswho comments that it was he himself who warned Totana of the trap he was about to fall into.

“I don’t regret anything. I did it for her and I would do it again”says the interviewee. The checks that Ángel speaks of came from arms trafficking and had to be cashed abroad. The moment her mother tried to collect them, she would be arrested and brought to justice in the country where she had gone to collect them.

These statements come after Ángel sat down again last weekend in Friday to talk about his mother. The young man insisted that he wanted to “tell the truth” because his mother and sister were calling him a “liar.” On the set he called for the protection of “children who suffer childhood violence” and provided some audios of alleged conversations between the emeritus and his mother.

For its part, Bárbara Rey remains silent. It trusts in Justice and relies on the work of its lawyers, with whom it has already taken legal action. The support of her daughter Sofía is also essential for her, who insistently defends her on the sets, remembering that both are “mistreated women” by Ángel and the media.

The DJ denies the statements of her brother, whom, in her words, she wants to see in jail, and denies that he took the photographs that she published last week Private. On the other hand, assures that the alleged blackmail that Bárbara would have prepared for Don Juan Carlos never occurredand in which public money would come into play.
