Ana Obregón: "Doing chemotherapy, I heard my son typing at night"

At 12 in the morning, while Gerard Piqué and Clara Chía ratify their complaint against the paparazzi Jordi Martín in court, at The Westin Palace hotel Ana Obregón has called a massive press conference –more than one hundred accredited– to present El chico of shrews (HarperCollins), the book that Aless Lequio began to write and finished herself. The interest is maximum, since it is the first time that Ana has faced the media after the controversial adoption of her daughter, born from a surrogate in the US through Aless's own sperm. She had not been in front of a camera or a microphone since she presented the Aless Lequio Foundation in February.

Obregón entered the room prepared for the photocall wearing a light blue and pink dress with floral prints and accompanied by her representative, Susana Uribarri. Ana herself told the graphic media that she had not seen such an expectation in her life. Live from the AR set on Telecinco, a circumspect Alessandro Lequio observed and preferred not to speak. "She looks very good," they suggested. “It's in her sauce. It's what she likes, "he was right to say to later be very upset by certain reactions around his media ex:" I'm hearing that this is a very nice story. As? Not at all. For a 27-year-old boy to die is a horror story.” Lequio revealed that he has not read the book but what he knows about it has nothing to do with what he left in writing.

No one from her personal environment has accompanied Ana in this call: neither her sisters or nephews nor Alesandro Lequio, previously unconditional support and today very far from her. It was also not allowed to ask questions that strayed from a single lane, the book, of which the author will sign copies next Sunday, June 11, in the Rosaleda Signature Space of the Madrid Book Fair.

"Just congratulate you on this new life next to Anita, you deserve it, and she is the finishing touch to this very special story," said the non-fiction director of Harper Collins to give way to an emotional video that brought forth the author's tears The book is called that because Aless decided: "Mom, she will be called that because when she was little she told me that she was always thinking about shrews."

Ana recounted that it all began in August 2018: "We were in New Jersey because Aless was undergoing a very aggressive chemo and radiotherapy treatment at the time and with all the side effects of these treatments, nausea, fever, staying in bed. .. I used to hear him typing at night. And he told me: 'Mom, I'm writing a book'".
