This week El Chico de las Musarañas has arrived on the shelves of our country, a book that Aless Lequio, son of Ana Obregón and Alessandro Lequio, left unfinished before he died and that the actress would have been in charge of completing. In this emotional story, the presenter shows a heartbreaking testimony about the loss of her son, sharing the most difficult moments of her life, among which is her suicide attempt.
Despite the fact that many suspected that Ana Obregón wanted to take her own life when her son Aless died on May 13, 2020, one of the people closest to the actress did not see it coming; It is about Raúl Castillo, known as 'Ra'. The popular public relations man confesses not having known anything about her maternity by surrogate pregnancy of the biologist, as well as her attempt to take her own life.
Ra, one of Madrid's best friends, assured his ignorance regarding Ana's plans to be a surrogate mother with her son's sperm, thus fulfilling Aless's last will: "I found out on Tuesday morning late, before the news broke. Ana called me to tell me and it made me the happiest man in the world," Ra said.
Likewise, Ra was also not aware of the actress's suicide attempt, in which Ana tried to jump off a balcony when Alessandro Lequio prevented her from doing so by reminding her of the promise she made to her son: "I don't know anything about this," Ra has revealed. , who adds: "I have read it and it has moved me a lot. I think it is wonderful, I highly recommend it and that is what I can tell you. Long live love and life always".
This tragic episode has surprised readers, who have been able to learn more details about the presenter's life. As he explains in the epilogue to El chico de las musarañas, the night her son died, Ana Obregón took refuge with her sisters and Alessandro Lequio in the apartment she had rented in Barcelona, the city where Aless received treatment. .
The woman from Madrid recounts that she went out onto the balcony of a seventh floor with a very clear idea. "I had everything planned to the millimeter for twenty-four hours. Actually, I planned it the day I was a mother. If my son died before me, I would not suffer for a second: I would go with him," she writes. After leaning over the railing of her room, her son's father knocked on the bedroom door asking her to open it: "Ana, for God's sake, open the door. You have something important to do. Do you remember what Aless asked us, his last will?" Lequio exclaimed.
This would be the sentence that prevented Obregón from taking his own life: "I tried to calm down, slowly withdrawing the leg that was hanging out to put it back on the balcony floor, and I entered the room trembling", making it clear that suicide should never being an option "not even in the worst tragedies you can experience, it's cowardice".
