Fran Rivera is living one of the best moments of his life at 49 years old. The right-hander enjoys his marriage to Lourdes Montes, a lawyer and fashion designer with whom he has two children. However, his life has not always been rosy.
25 years ago, Francisco Rivera married Eugenia Martínez de Irujo in a spectacular wedding held in the Cathedral of Seville. Unfortunately, the link between the House of Alba and the Rivera Ordóñez came to an end in 2002, when the couple decided to go their separate ways.
Over the years, the right-hander has not detailed what his previous marriage was like, from which Cayetana, his only daughter in common with Eugenia, emerged; something that has completely changed with his last interview in Friday.
His time on the program presented by Santi Acosta and Bea Archidona promises to be most revealing. In the published preview, Fran Rivera assures that the separation from his first wife was terrible: "I don't have any resentment towards Eugenia for everything that happened, none, but the way she behaved afterwards, no, it wasn't good. It broke my skin as a father." has revealed.
Ten years after his breakup with the Duchess of Montoro, the right-hander began a court battle for Cayetana's custody. However, in 2014 the Provincial Court of Madrid stated that the girl would continue living with her mother, giving her custody of her minor.
Luckily, the passing of the years has led to an improvement in family relationships. Both Fran and Eugenia have chosen to maintain cordiality, something that has been transferred to their respective partners, Lourdes Montes and Narcís Rebollo.
