On May 11, Ana Rosa Quintana informed her audience that she would be away from her usual schedule for several days. She said she would try to set things in order but did not provide specifics about the reasons for her absence. After a brief hiatus, she returned at the top of this Wednesday morning program and addressed the viewers with a direct update.
At the start of today’s episode, before delivering her customary editorial, Quintana faced the camera to speak openly about the week’s events. She explained that she had initially planned for a three day absence, but the break extended beyond those expectations, adding that the days were more than three and included additional time for personal scheduling.
She clarified that she did not spend the time idle. Instead, she used the pause to complete important tasks and to conduct annual reviews. The journalist made it clear that the period away from work allowed her to handle essential matters and return with renewed focus.
Quintana, who has publicly battled breast cancer in the past and has taken time off from her schedule for health reasons, reassured viewers about her health. She noted that it is important for someone facing cancer to stay informed about health developments, and she reported that everything was proceeding well. Her message conveyed a sense of calm and resilience as she looked toward the near future, including the end of the summer season.
Ana Rosa, Telecinco afternoons
In addition to her on-air role, Quintana is developing a new project for Telecinco that is expected to take over the banner previously known as Save Me. The plan is to roll out this new format in September. During a media briefing last week, she revealed that her team was already laying the groundwork for the concept. She stated that once the project took shape, it would be presented to the network for review and formal agreement.
Quintana also indicated that the project is currently in a flexible stage. For the moment, she will continue to host her current program through the summer, while the team maps out the future direction. She emphasized that there are still several months to refine the concept and ensure it attracts a broad audience when it premieres.
