Spanish society is mourning the death of María del Carmen García Galisteo, better known as Carmen Sevilla. The actress, singer, dancer and presenter passed away on Tuesday, June 27 at the age of 92 at the Jiménez Díaz Foundation in Madrid, according to what her son Augusto Algueró reported to Europa Press.
The artist was admitted to the medical center on Sunday in a very serious condition due to a complication in her health. It should be noted that the actress from The Taming of the Shrew, Imperial Violets or La Loba y la Paloma had been battling Alzheimer's since 2009, one of the toughest diseases that exists.
Since 2015, the former Cine de Barrio presenter lived in a luxury residence in Aravaca, where she was cared for by true professionals who helped her live with the disease in the best possible way. "Her state of hers is complicated, but she is stable within her situation. The only thing that matters is that she is well cared for and cared for by great professionals who are watching over her at all times," her son said for that so.
As Algueró confessed in an interview, it had been a long time since "Spain's girlfriend" could not recognize him, but his condition was stable and he had the opportunity to live his last years of life calmly and peacefully.
Many public figures and professional colleagues have wanted to upload photos, videos and different publications to their social networks to publicly bid the artist a last farewell: maestro Joao, Bibiana Fernández, Rosa Benito, Lolita Flores...
One of the well-known people who has felt the loss of Seville the most is José Manuel Parada. The presenter has not hesitated and has uploaded a series of photos to say goodbye to "his best friend of his". ''We have lived so much together. She has given time to the good, the bad and the regular. Now we only have to remember the best of the best,'' he wrote in one of the posts he shared on his official Instagram profile.
Although he first uploaded a photo in which he was alone with the famous actress, later he uploaded a mythical image on the Prado del Rey studio sets with Carmen Sevilla and a host of well-known characters: Paco Clavel, Isabel Gemio, Enrique del Pozo, Loles León, Nati Mistral, Miguel Caiceo, etc.
The tender photo has captured the attention of dozens of fans on the net, who remember with nostalgia and melancholy the years in which Sevilla gave animated interviews on different radio and television programs.
The Sevillian actress made her debut in the world of cinema at just 17 years old (she lied about her age) and inevitably fell in love with Spanish society due to her charisma, talent, self-confidence and undeniable beauty.
Carmen Sevilla loved her audience and the public returned her love tenfold. Her films achieved absolute success and the artist had one of the strongest fan groups of the time.
