According to statements published WeekGabriela has shown her displeasure after the reunion with her brother Jacobo and his mother, María Angeles: “The meeting has not been as I would have liked it to be. Perhaps for them it has been affectionate, but for me not”.

After complaining that only two of the four siblings had appeared at mass, Gabriela Ostos explained her discomfort at the possible transfer to Madrid of her father’s ashes, deposited since the death of the right-hander in a columbarium of a church in Écija.

“I had no idea that they were going to take my father’s ashes from Écija to Madrid. I did not understand that decision. They told me they were going to stay where they were until they built the monument to my father,” explained the eldest daughter of the right-handed, who has shown his disagreement with Grajal’s decision: “I don’t know where they are going to be, or where they are going to put them. I do not agree at all with the decision that his wife has made. I think we could have communicated to the rest of the children before”.

Gabriela wants both memories to be exhibited at the Real Maestranza Museum in Seville.

“I am respecting what my father told me when he was alive. I have found out that things have been given to certain museums and institutions that we were unaware of. My father wanted me to keep his paintings, trophies and photos,” clarified the daughter of Jaime Ostos, who, according to his relatives, has cried a lot because María Ángeles is dominating everything regarding her father and has not yet distributed anything about the bullfighter, except for the house that his son Jacobo inherits exclusively, located in Villaviciosa de Odón, and which is up for sale.
