2023 has been a very hard year for the couple formed by the content creator Alba Silva and the Andalusian footballer Sergio Rico. The athlete had an accident with a horse at the end of May during the El Rocío pilgrimage and had to be urgently admitted to the Virgen del Rocío hospital in Seville. The situation was so serious and the injuries resulting from the head trauma were so critical that a coma had to be induced.
After several weeks of nerves and uncertainty in which Rico seemed not to improve, the Sevillian began to respond to the medication and show small progress: recognizing his family, eating for himself, etc.
Finally, after more than 80 days in the hospital, the PSG player left the hospital hand in hand with Alba Silva, his wife. It should be said that, throughout this process, Rico's family and his friends were very present in his day-to-day life. In Silva's case, she did not separate from her lover for even a second and only left the medical center for what was just and necessary.
The accident marked a before and after in the Sevillian's life, but it was also very significant for his wife, who began going to therapy to assimilate everything that had happened to her. In addition, she had to abandon different personal and professional projects to focus on her husband, who needed her at that time.
However, Rico's rapid improvement meant that Silva was finally able to participate in a television project that he had planned and that will be released this Wednesday, November 15: WAGS. They also play. It is a docureality in which four successful women in different fields (fashion, social networks, etc.) show their daily lives.
These women share one aspect of their life in common: they are the wives or girlfriends of four famous soccer players. Mina Bonino, Zoe Cristofoli and Paddy Noarbe, partners of Fede Valverde, Theo Hernández and Marcos Llorente, will accompany Silva on this beautiful adventure.
This production is a perfect opportunity for the participants to make themselves known to the popular public and show what the life of women who live alongside stars of the football world is like.
In the docuseries, each of the protagonists will show a facet of their life. While the cameras will accompany Bonino in the final stretch of her pregnancy and birth of her second child, Alba Silva will show what it has been like to live through the slow recovery process of her husband. It should be noted that the Andalusian had already started recording the project when the accident occurred and that she had to stop everything due to the event. When Rico returned home and the situation stabilized, Silva returned to the reality show.
