Eugenia Martínez de Irujo responds to Fran Rivera's controversial statements

This weekend, Fran Rivera surprised in an interview by speaking openly about his marriage to Eugenia Martínez de Irujo and the difficult stage of their divorce. The bullfighter accused the Duchess of Montoro of having contributed to her negative image as her father.

In response to these statements, Eugenia Martínez de Irujo has reappeared on social networks, sharing a smiling photo accompanied by the song 'Volando voy' by Camarón de la Isla, a gesture that suggests her preference for staying out of controversy.

In the interview, Fran Rivera spared no details about their separation, confessing that Carmen Ordóñez, his mother, tried to dissuade him from marrying Eugenia. Although Rivera claimed not to hold a grudge, he stated that during the custody dispute over his daughter, he felt unfairly attacked in the media.

Eugenia's reappearance on social networks could be interpreted as a sign of her willingness to stay out of the controversy generated by Fran's revelations.

The bullfighter's statements have revealed a painful past, describing the separation as "terrible" and admitting that the press attacked him. Despite this, Fran Rivera has stated that she does not hold a grudge against Eugenia, but criticizes the way she behaved after the divorce.

Fran Rivera also revealed in the interview that the marriage was not made out of love, but for other reasons, denying the perception of happiness that they conveyed. The warning from her mother, Carmen Ordóñez, before the wedding, was added to the bullfighter's confession, pointing out that even at that time, the family warned of possible complications.

The appearance of the Duchess of Montoro, smiling and without making explicit reference to the statements, suggests an attitude of distancing herself from the conflicts of the past.
