Or maybe not… The interpreter of Today I want to confess She has had a life marked by lights and shadows, and 2024 has been a ‘complicated’ year for her, full of ups and downs, tensions and accusations. Everyone is talking, but she, for the moment, keep silent. Since his departure from Cantorain October of last month, to his tour to celebrate his 50 years in music – in which he had to cancel several concerts – to speculation about his state of health… What’s wrong with Isabel? How have the last few months been this year? What is your new life like in Madrid?
Cantora’s departure
On October 22 of this yearIsabel Pantoja left behind her refuge: Cantora, the Cádiz estate that she inherited from Paquirri and that holds so many memories of her life and that of her children. The inheritance that Fran and Cayetano Rivera always fought for and that she denied them would remain in the Medina Sidonia farmhouse. Objects that unleashed one of the family wars most media in recent decades.
On the other hand, The farm would now be owned by an investment fund. Cantora belongs in a 52.4% to Isabel Pantoja and in a 47.6% to his son Kiko Rivera. However, although Isabel had owned Cantora for years, her relationship with her son seriously deteriorated, culminating in the forced sale of the estate. to pay off debts and in the subsequent departure of the artist from the property. The sale of the property has not implied a rapprochement between mother and son.
November. It settles in Madrid
Without a doubt, the penultimate month of the year has been the most intense for the artist. For the first time, we have seen Isabel Pantoja and her brother Agustín in the capital. The images, published by the magazine Ten Minutesshow both at the exit of the Puerta de Hierro Hospitalin Madrid. Wearing a mask and sunglasses, he spent around two hours in the medical center. Leaving Cantora was difficult, and moving to Madrid was also difficult, since the artist spent several months evaluating properties to rent and, at first, nothing convinced her. Finally, he opted for the exclusive urbanization of Pozuelo de Alarcónknown as La Finca.
Added to this is the interview by Fran Rivera in the program Fridayin which he stated: “They tell me that my father was in the process of divorcing her.” However, one of the great unknowns was whether Isabel Pantoja’s attitude towards Carmina Ordóñez’s children changed after the bullfighter’s death. “When my father was in front, he was a person; When I wasn’t there, I was different.”said Fran. And he added: “He has not respected my father’s memory”. Once again, Isabel Pantoja is back in the public spotlight.
The lack of relationship with his children
After this devastating interview, it was Isa Pi’s turn to reveal some of the episodes most humiliating and painful of his family life in Cantora. “It’s like I’ve lost a mother for the second time. How serious have I done that she doesn’t want to know anything about me? He adopted me and like someone who abandons…not even a dog.”he revealed. And he spoke of the famous hose episodea public story that for Isabel would be on the same level as her son’s story in Singer, the poisoned inheritance (2020).
The tensions between Isabel Pantoja and Isa began to intensify when the young woman influencer She began to have a secret relationship with a boy, even visiting her in Cantora. Upon finding out about this visit, the singer did not hesitate to try to impose a punishment on her daughter, taking away her cell phone. However, Isa was firm and flatly refused to accept the measure. “I think it’s my brother who calls my mother and tells her that this boy and I have been at her house. I remember being in the living room and suddenly she came towards me insulting me and telling me everything. I told him, I’m sorry, sorry. The first thing that came out was to say that I didn’t have a phone. And that’s when he says give me the kitchen scissors. I go around the big table twice. “I thought she wasn’t going to cut my hair, but I saw her so capable.”
Finally, the worst came true. “He grabbed me by the face, we struggled and there came a time when I stopped and he cut my hair. I’ve never cut it so short. And when he cut it off he told me I’m going to return you to Peru.” Isa Pi explained.
Canceled concerts
