This Wednesday, the lifeless body of the ventriloquist Mari Carmen Martínez-Villaseñor, better known as Mari Carmen and her dolls, has arrived in Madrid to be watched in a funeral home in the town of Majadahonda. The humorist's only son, Miguel Manuel Almanzor, is in it and has attended the media throughout the day.
Save me has been interested in the sad news since it was known last Thursday, so he has also been present at the gates of the wake to speak with Almanzor and convey the condolences of his entire team. Omar Suárez, a reporter for the Telecinco program, has been in charge of learning about the latest news after the death of Mari Carmen.
The son of Mari Carmen and her dolls has criticized the delay in the transfer of the body of his mother, who died in Tenerife and who will later be buried in her hometown, Cuenca. "That's how things are in Spain: people don't work at the weekend, so if you start your trip on a Thursday or Friday, you have to wait on Monday for the forces and judges to sign all the necessary documents to start the procedures ", he complained on the air.
"The big question", as Omar himself has defined it, continues to be "what will happen to that family" of dolls, something that Miguel has clarified definitively. "They will be in the hearts of all Spaniards who remember her, and that will be their place, not a suitcase," he assured, to later add emphatically that he "never" will expose them.
"One of my mother's maxims was: 'never show her dolls if I'm not giving them life,'" continued Almanzor, who justifies that Mari Carmen's job was "to give inert matter the appearance of being alive, and it would be, the truth, quite rare to see Doña Rogelia head down or still, without moving", he said convinced.
Asked by Omar Suárez if he would get rid of the dolls if he was offered "a great economic offer", Miguel was blunt: "Even if I were back in my early days, when my mother did not take care of me... Even if I had been in At that time, I wouldn't sell them", he replied, justifying himself with the fact that "a mother is worth much more than any monetary sum".
