The long-awaited meeting between Carlo Costanzia and Terelu Campos, future grandparents of baby that Alejandra Rubio and Carlo Costanzia Jr are expecting., was full of emotion and has marked the beginning of a new stage between both families. Although they did not know each other, the meeting on the set of Friday cleared up any doubt about the complicity that now unites them and that they sealed with a strong hug. “What a handsome grandfather he is going to have,” Terelu commented with a laugh. In an atmosphere full of expectation, Carlo took the opportunity to deny rumors and clarify issues about which there has been much speculation in recent months.
Carlo Costanzia did not hide his surprise when he found out that he would be a grandfather for the first time. “It was a big surprise, the context, the situation, the time they had been there… But I saw that it was clear, assumed, and so was she. If it’s time, it’s time. I am lucky to often see the two together, and every time I see Alejandra I get happier every day.” The future grandfather also took the opportunity to deny the latest rumors about the couple: “I know there have been many comments about breakups, but I have been lucky enough to share Carlo’s birthday with them and I have seen them more united than ever. They help each other and are very close.”
The Italian count assured that his son and Alejandra suffer “constant harassment” by the press throughout the pregnancy and spoke of the good relationship between them, flatly denying the rumors of a possible separation: “Zero anger. I have spent many days with them. The thing is that 24 hours a day there are between two and four cars following the couple. “They are going to provoke Carlo to see if he has an overwhelmed reaction, record it, and then say: ‘Look at the monster.’” Furthermore, Carlo did not hide his discomfort at Alessandro Lequio’s comments about Alejandra’s pregnancy: “It is a tremendous lack of respect. “You can talk or argue, but raising the tone and speaking rudely to a pregnant girl seems unjustifiable to me.”
Terelu also took the opportunity to express his concern about how they will handle this pressure: “I have spoken to them and I have told them that it is best to act naturally. I’m a little worried about ‘from now on’ because they want to protect the baby. I think Carlo doesn’t want to get into controversy, but I’m afraid it won’t always be possible to avoid it.”
At a time when both families are preparing to receive the new baby and just a few days after his birth, great curiosity has been generated about whether the Italian will be reunited with his ex-wife, Mar Flores. “I don’t have any problems with the others… I was upset and surprised that, after 20 years, he had done an interview talking about issues from the past. If there is anyone who doesn’t get over it, it’s her, not me. It’s something of the past. You can forgive, but you are not obliged to forget. There are things I don’t forget, but I don’t have to party with her. If Carlo asked for it, why not?”
When asked how he imagined his ex-wife as a grandmother, he responded: “I hope better than as Carlo’s mother. I can’t comment on the others. I will have my reasons… I said ‘better grandmother than mother’, I did not say ‘bad mother’. “I have not been cruel… And if she has been a fantastic mother, let her be a magnificent grandmother.”
Terelu took advantage of the moment to settle speculation about her relationship with Carlo Jr.’s mother: “I have said it, but since I am not being heard, I want to make it clear. She is not part of my circle of friendship, we each have a life, but that does not mean that I have anything against Carlo’s mother nor that Mar Flores has anything against me. The only thing that matters to me, above all, is my daughter, and my daughter’s happiness is in Carlo and in that baby. “I have nothing to reproach Carlo’s mother for her behavior towards my daughter… I have nothing to reproach.”
The legal scandal surrounding Carlo and his sons Pietro and Rocco continues to generate headlines, especially after it was published in the Italian press that Carlos Costanzia Sr. had provided cell phones during his stay in prison. On this issue, he has been blunt: “In 2015, the criminal procedure law has established that ‘indicted’ cannot be used, but ‘investigated’ can be used. Yes, I am investigated.” Regarding the accusations related to the alleged delivery of documents to facilitate visits, he clarified: “I have not had anything to do with any motive, I have not delivered documents to anyone.” Carlo also pointed out irregularities in the leak of information: “Joaquín Prat Jr. has produced a document that he would not have been able to produce because it is a secret document that only the prosecutors and the police have.”
The situation of his children in prison worries him deeply: “My children are terrible, they have suspended visits without justification. We cannot communicate with them. “They have not done it with gangsters or terrorists.” Furthermore, Carlo pointed out that the media impact of the case has been disproportionate: “In Italy, the media impact is due to the surname, because no one knew who we were. The fact of being noble has had a lot of impact, but I don’t even have castles.”
