Jesus and the King: a tale of love and abuse between the tamer and the revealing muse
Antena 3 offers open access this Wednesday at 22:45 with Jesus and the King, a serialized drama that previously streamed on the Atresplayer platform. It follows the turbulent relationship between the media figure known as the tamer Angel Jesus and the actress and muse Bárbara Rey, portrayed by Belén Cuesta. The series traces a nine-year arc that captures Spain’s tabloid culture—glamorous magazine covers, the joys of family life with Angelito and Sofia, and the opulence of a villa in La Moraleja—while probing darker themes such as addiction, gambling, infidelity, and abuse. A haunting undercurrent involves Bárbara’s connections to a powerful statesman, revealing a story that blends public spectacle with private turmoil.

From that moment, an entire society rallies around the crisis, with Alcántara among those swept up in the urgent mobilization. The narrative threads illuminate the moral weight and societal impact of this historic event, offering a gripping examination of courage, consequence, and the pursuit of justice.
