María Patiño, in tears live when remembering Concha Velasco: "She was there when my mother died"

The death of Concha Velasco has caused great pain, especially in the world of Spanish entertainment, where most of its great exponents have come out to publicly mourn the loss of the performer.

Tears have not been hidden on television over the death of Concha Velasco at the age of 84, and María Patiño could not help but get emotional this Saturday while Socialité was broadcast.

In full live, Patiño remembered Concha Velasco crying: “She was by my side when my mother died,” he said, highlighting the human side of one of the greatest icons of Spanish cinema.

“I just wanted to say thank you. Beyond her artistic career, she is a woman who, because of her strength, has helped me in many situations in my life,” the presenter began by saying as her voice broke.

“Those are the wonderful things about this profession, that it allows you to meet people who help you get up,” Patiño said before cutting off the broadcast and practically starting to cry live.

In addition, Patiño has remembered Concha Velasco in a publication on his Instagram where he has shared a photograph with her and her children.
