The sit-in at the altar of the Sevillian bullfighter Juan Ortega for his girlfriend, the Cádiz cardiologist Carmen Otte, has grabbed all the headlines in recent days. The right-hander's sudden decision to cancel his wedding just a few minutes before it took place left half a thousand guests, who were already in the Cadiz city of Jerez de la Frontera, uninvited to witness the wedding.
Since the news became known last weekend, they have tried to clarify the reasons that led Ortega to make this decision. His entourage first attributed it to "personal circumstances", without giving more details, and later it was known that he had discovered infidelity on the part of his girlfriend just a few hours before the wedding.
This Monday, journalist Pilar Vidal gave more details about the reasons in Y Ahora Sonsoles, Sonsoles Ónega's afternoon program on Antena 3, which she learned about through several guests at the wedding. "The first call he makes is to a priest from Barcelona that he had invited, who was at the hotel getting ready and who was also going to officiate the mass," she explained.
"He calls him on the phone and tells him the doubts he has. The priest tells him not to get married, because what they tell me is that he is very religious, and that he had his doubts and preferred not to make the decision." Vidal told about the bullfighter in the Atresmedia space. "The next call he makes is to her girlfriend, who catches her at the hair salon with her mother," he said.
The collaborator has continued with the story of what happened between Ortega and Otte after the wedding was cancelled. "Then he calls his parents and tells them that he is not going to get married, and they tell me that he takes the car and goes to Seville," she said, later denying the theory of the girlfriend's alleged infidelity. . "Third parties that we have heard, her entourage tells me that there are no third parties either from him or from her," Vidal confirmed.
"They had been living together for three years and this has been their season, which has been very good for him, he has spent the last few months bullfighting outside and two weeks ago, at the presentation of a book in Seville, he looked happy and excited. Another thing is what happened between fifteen days ago, whether he gave her a bad time or something like that," the journalist concluded.
