Jorge Javier Vázquez, on the absence of Isabel Pantoja at Isa and Asraf's wedding: "I will not be the reason for her not being here"

This Friday is the big day for Isa Pantoja and Asraf Beno. The couple celebrates their wedding after ratifying it civilly last Tuesday, although what has focused all eyes is the absence of the bride's closest family circle: neither her mother, Isabel Pantoja, nor her brother Kiko Rivera will be present at the wedding. long-awaited ceremony.

The event focuses all attention on the possibility that the tonadillera, especially, could back down on her decision not to attend her daughter's wedding, something that some of the guests who did attend have spoken about publicly. Among them is the best man, who is none other than the well-known presenter Jorge Javier Vázquez.

The Telecinco program TardeAR, which replaces the legendary Sálvame that Jorge Javier himself presented for 14 years, recounted the communicator's arrival at the venue. "He was one of the first; he came undressed, he's going to do it inside, and he told us that he didn't see Isa very nervous although he was nervous," said reporter Lucía Tornero, sent to Seville to cover the ceremony.

The same space later showed Vázquez's words from the car, just before arriving at the wedding venue. "At no time did I hesitate when it came to being her godfather, and I spoke with her this morning and she told me that she was not very nervous yet, but I told her that we had to rehearse the walk," the presenter told the cameras.

The presenter, still linked to Mediaset after the cancellation of his latest project Chinese Tales, has revealed that his choice as best man has been directly related to Isabel and Kiko's refusal to attend the wedding. "I told him 'you can use me as a wild card, but if when the time comes you tell me: 'Jorge, my mother is coming, please don't come,' I will understand perfectly,' and with my brother I also told him," he said.

The Catalan communicator settled the conversation by remembering the bad relationship he has with the tonadillera, and that has dragged on since their notorious confrontations when he presented Sálvame. "I, of course, will not be the reason why Isabel Pantoja is not here today," he recalled before the media.
