In the final stretch of 2022, on the Day of the Holy Innocents, we woke up with the cover of Isabel Preysler announcing his breakup with Mario Vargas Llosa. Everything seemed so surreal that we even thought it was all a joke. But not. Isabel was happy to say that the Peruvian Nobel Prize winner's unfounded jealousy was the trigger for the breakup. According to the writer, it was not jealousy but their different lifestyles.
According to the queen of hearts, after one last fight in Villa Meona with Ana Boyer as a witnessthe author of The city and the Dogs He finally packed his bags and left the house in Puerta de Hierro, returning to the central Madrid apartment where he lived with Patricia Llosa so many years. The breakup between Tamara Falcó's mother and the writer marked the end of 2022, but also the beginning of 2023.
The Nobel Prize winner
After the breakup, it must be remembered that a story by the writer published in 2021 became especially relevant. So much so that it was used by the writer's own entourage in The country to respond to the exclusive Hola of Isabel. In The windsVargas Llosa spoke of the “pichula” love for which his protagonist abandoned the woman of his life. “Ever since I committed the folly of abandoning her, I think about her and remorse attacks me.”. I think that I only did one thing wrong in life: abandon Carmencita for a woman who wasn't worth it.“.
The Nobel Prize winner denied that this story had autobiographical overtones, although it is something that has always been questioned. In this story, the intellectual also criticized the society of the spectacle, which was interpreted as a criticism of his lifestyle with Isabel.
The darts of Álvaro Vargas Llosa
After Isabel's cover in her main magazine also came the publications of Alvaro Vargas Llosason of Mario and Patricia, who shared 'poisoned' messages on social networks and frequently displayed photos of his parents, confirming the reconciliation between the two.
The truth is that Mario's children (Álvaro, Gonzalo and Morgana) never accepted his relationship with Isabel and are happy that the Nobel Prize winner has returned with Patricia, who in addition to being the mother of his children is also his cousin. Neither Patricia nor her children cared about the fact that in 2015 Vargas Llosa abandoned his wife in the middle of their 50th anniversary for the queen of hearts. They left everything behind, even this 'betrayal' that broke the family in two and left the Peruvian woman in a sea of tears.
In February 2023, after weeks of being seen together in different restaurants in Madrid, Mario and Patricia reappeared together on the occasion of the author's admission to the French Academy of Language. Ceremony to which, by the way, the king Juan Carlos came together with the Infanta Cristinainvited by the writer.
It was one of the most important days of his career and at his side was Patricia, who had a very surreal moment when she fell asleep in the middle of the ceremony. In March they also attended his granddaughter's wedding together in Lima, a great family performance in which the intellectual surprised by dancing a huayno, a typical dance from the central Andean region. He seemed happy, because he already said that after breaking up with Isabel he regained his freedom.
The defense of Julio Iglesias
On March 8, in the midst of a war of darts and leaks on both sides, Julio Iglesias also spoke in Hola to defend his former wife: “Two of her ex-husbands have died, and I am absolutely sure that they would have also defended her at this time. She will always have my support and my love,” he explained.
Miranda Rijnsburger's husband clarified: “I know that I am going into overdrive and that this is not like me, but I want to do it for my ex-wife, for Isabel, because she deserves it and because it is deeply unfair how they are behaving.” with her”.
And he charged directly against the Nobel Prize in Literature: “No matter what the breakup was, a gentleman and a gentleman know how to end things. He goes out publicly and wishes the other person all the happiness. And if someone wants to interfere, they say which is a two-way issue that should not be interfered with and should be respected. Mr. Vargas Llosa's behavior has left much to be desired. A man who has lived with a woman for eight years has to know how to act and control how people act. around him.”
Julio Iglesias' reaction surprised everyone. As he himself said, he never gets into these matters. The Vargas Llosa-Preysler storm subsided for a few months due in part to the wedding of Tamara Falcó and Íñigo Onievathe great social event of the year that stole the spotlight.
Isabel Preysler and her year-end
With her daughter Tamara finally married in July (another of her biggest headaches), Isabel has finished the year with her Christmas documentary on Disney+, for which she has received strong reviews such as that of Jorge Javier Vázquez. On the occasion of this project she sat down on December 14 at The Anthill by Pablo Motos. She shared a conversation with her daughter Tami and threw a dart at the writer: “The last breakup didn't hurt me at all“she said forcefully. She also spoke of jealousy, as we have said, the reason why according to her she broke up with the author of Aunt Julia and the writer. “There is no reasonable jealousy, there are more or less light ones, but they all end up being bad”.
