The Baroness Thyssen He is in top shape at 80 years old, although he is rarely seen in Madrid. But this week she left her refuge in Andorra to spend a few days in the capital. Carmen Cervera, very attentive to the press, assured that she had been in Switzerland this Christmas with her family, proof that the relations between the baroness and her only son have overcome the tensions of recent months. “All together and everything has been great,” she said, referring to her first-born, her two twin daughters Carmen and Sabina, and her five grandchildren Sacha, Eric, Enzo, Kala and India. “My girls are divine,” she repeated with a smile.
But this past Tuesday, we had met Tita Cervera and Luis Miguel Rodríguez in a restaurant on Ortega y Gasset Street. There we saw Carmen Thyssen with the businessman at El Pescador, one of the best seafood restaurants in the city. The philanthropist and the businessman who dominates the scrap metal business in Spain, owner of Desguaces La Torre, shared a tablecloth, chat and after dinner.
This is not the first time we have talked in Informalia about the friendship between Luismi and the Baroness. Already in 2016 we said that the businessman and the widow of Baron Thyssen had had a date, although the ex-boyfriend of Carmen Martínez-Bordiú, He then explained that it had been a chance meeting. However, we now know that from time to time they go out together in Madrid for a friendly dinner or lunch.
Many romances have been attributed to this well-known seducer, some of them very popular and high-profile in the media. After several years with Franco's eldest granddaughter, Luis Miguel (66) had a sonorous relationship with Agatha Ruiz de la Prada (63), who left him due to the continuous infidelities of the man who replaced Pedro J. Ramírez (71) in the designer's heart. It is also common to see him in the Plaza de Las Ventas with striking companions. We are not saying that Tita Cervera, the multi-millionaire aristocrat from her marriage to Heirich Thyssen, is also one of her possible conquests.
Great news for Tita at the start of the year
Friendships and meals aside, the year couldn't have started better for Tita Cervera. On January 9, the United States Court of Appeal confirmed that Camille Pissarro's painting 'Rue St. Honoré in the Afternoon, Rain Effect', stolen by the Nazis in Germany in 1939, belongs to the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. Therefore, the painting remains in Madrid after more than 20 years of legal battle against the Cassirer family of Jewish origin, who claimed ownership of the valuable work. “Wonderful. We've been there for years. I'm very happy, naturally. A wonderful painting for the Thyssen. Thank you very much. When it was acquired, the sale of that painting had already gone through three American galleries and families, very well. They were not right, not right at all.” Tita told us satisfied.
