Fran Rivera denies having offended Cayetano: “You take things out of context”

Francisco Rivera does not usually refuse a call when there is a charitable cause behind it. And the one led by Dr. Iván Mañero, CEO of IM Clinic in Sant Cugat, through the NGO Amic, is celebrating 20 years of doing more than praiseworthy work in Guinea Bissau: his foundation has provided medical equipment and supplies to the Pediatric and Maternal Hospital. Emanuel and provided health care to more than 550,000 people. “Not only is it a very beautiful thing, but if it lasts so long, it means that Dr. Mañero puts a lot of heart and a lot of work into it. I believe that in life you have to be grateful and for those of us who are lucky, the best way for us to be grateful is to give back a little of what God sends you by being in these things,” explained the right-hander.

As his visits to Barcelona are few - those of a public nature, says the bullfighter who comes on business quite frequently - it is imperative to take the temperature of his relationship with Cayetano: for months, particularly after the separation of this second and Eva González , it is said in the gossip that it has cooled down a bit. More after a certain bullfighting comment expressed by Francisco. "No no. The thing is that sometimes you take things out of context and if you don't put the complete sentences, you do it a lot... No intention to offend. I said and I say that with his legs, Cayetano is not agile, he is clumsy, but since he has so much courage, he gets stuck in front of the bull. The reporter puts his finger on the issue by pointing out that this is not nice to hear. “For a bullfighter I think so. What happens is that you don't know about this."

The matter is different with Julián Contreras, brother on his mother's side, whom he prefers to ignore completely. Julián recently said not only that he has tried everything to reconcile with him and Cayetano without it being possible but that the press always supported them in their demerit, given that they generate more news. “There are such beautiful topics to talk about, like the one that brings us here, that we don't talk about those that are not. “Home things always have to stay at home,” Paquirri's son pretended.

By the way, he took advantage of the circumstance to explain Bertín Osborne's absence at the charity dinner: his father, very old, was admitted urgently and did not want to leave his side. “He is out of danger now; It was a reaction to a medication, apparently. But thank God it is now under control and it is phenomenal. But it has given us all a big scare.” Speaking of parents and children, the occasion is that they paint her bald to find out how she sees the media pressure on Tana, her eldest daughter, who is already being called an influencer: “If Tana doesn't want any of this; She shows me, she shows me, that she's not going anywhere. But you don't let her. And I believe that she has the right: she is working very hard, she is very happy and her company is very happy with her. She has the right not to be a public figure. In fact, she is offered advertising campaigns and she says no to everything. She thinks you will respect her more. I had already told her that she is wrong…”

Fran comes euphoric about doing the last stretch of the Camino de Santiago, the so-called English Way, from Ferrol to the capital of Compostela: “The idea arose when a bull caught me in Huesca and was about to send me to the 'garden of the callaos'. A friend of mine told me “when you recover, let's thank the apostle.” It took me three months to be able to walk again, mind you. And since then, a group of friends do it every year. And with friends he founded the musical group 8 Diablos, which debuted at the Starlite gala in Malaga this past August: “I misuse the guitar, I sing little but since there are eight of us... The truth is that it is very fun. We are a group of friends, above all, without aspirations but we had a great time and we worked hard.”
