The complicated economic situation of Concha Velasco adds to her delicate state of health

Concha Velasco’s health is very delicate. At 83 years old, the actress lives in the Orpea Punta Galea residence, as we anticipate from this portal, a center located in Las Rozas, on the outskirts of Madrid, although She has had to be admitted on some occasions to the Puerta de Hierro clinic, where she was hospitalized for several days last Christmas.

The beloved protagonist of The girls of the Red Cross She suffers from a major digestive tract ailment, but her mind and intelligence remain intact, which means she is aware of her situation, an awareness that sometimes makes her sad, and as a result, she withdraws into herself.

From their environment they tell us that “he speaks less and less” and confirm that “he receives fewer and fewer visits.” The economic situation of the artist is also worrisome. Being one of the most active actresses in cinema, theater and television in our country, Concha Velasco should have reached her age with a great fortune, but she has not. She herself recognized in some interviews that she had earned as much as wasted, not only in living well, but in undertaking ruinous projects, together with her husband. Paco Marsó

The couple tried to produce big-budget musicals and plays that were not as successful as expected, sometimes leading them to bankruptcy. Their relationship suffered for this (and for other reasons) an inevitable wear and tear. Marsó’s manifest infidelities towards his wife also had an influence, of course.

Concha does not own real estate. Years ago she was forced to sell his large chalet in La Moraleja y the apartment in the Sanchinarro neighborhood to which he had to move before entering a previous residence, located in the Tetuán neighborhood. Finally, he lived in a rental apartment that he shared with his son Manuel.

Complicated economic situation

The retirement pension you receive is not enough to pay for your current residence, whose price is around 2,500 euros monthly. The rest to complete this price is borne by AISGE, the organization of Performing Artists, Intellectual Property Rights Management Entity, an entity that manages the rights of actors, dubbers, dancers and stage directors and whose foundation he chaired Pilar Barden until his death and now he has to face Emilio Gutierrez Caba.

Aware of the crisis in the family economy, Concha asked one of the last people to visit her to lend a hand to Manuel, her eldest son, a writer and playwright for the latest performances performed by his mother. The other son, Paco, father of Samuel, the artist’s only grandson, whom she adores, has a more independent personal life from her mother. Manuel is more attentive to Concha’s needs than to his own.
