“Save me” began an unusual episode this Tuesday following Raquel Bollo’s candid break. David Valldeperas, the director of the Telecinco program, addressed viewers to apologize for events from the previous Tuesday. He explained that Rocío Cortés, Chiquetete’s daughter and half-sister to two of the current Survivientes contestants, had been invited to speak privately about how Manuel and Alma experienced the competition. He admitted that the decision may not have been appropriate.

“Perhaps the risks of introducing this guest on set were not fully measured, because Rocío Cortés’ words extended beyond the scope of the program she came to comment on. We are saddened, and yesterday we were wrong”, Valldeperas stated in a later intervention.

The program’s director also affirmed that “the program and its team will always stand with victims of gender-based violence”: Raquel Bollo, who was a victim in the past case involving Chiquetete, remains an important reference in this regard.

“The team that created this program, and many teams before, supported Raquel during her time there and in this situation. Raquel contributed significantly to the development of this program. Time and circumstances have strained the relationship. There are many differences today, but there is one constant: the horror she endured with Chiquetete. For this reason, Raquel will always have support from us, and we will stand with her and other victims of gender-based violence, without conditions”, the director of the show stated.

It is noted that last Tuesday Raquel Bollo directed criticism toward the program. After Rocío Cortés was invited, the daughter of Chiquetete and Amparo Cazalla, she made strong accusations against siblings and current Survivientes contestants Manuel Cortés and Alma Bollo.

Belén Esteban’s attempts to calm the situation in the Telecinco corridors did not succeed, as Bollo continued to vocalize strongly: “You are all scoundrels. You have been numb here for 15 years.”

“Rocío Carrasco is being mistreated, and I, in a few sentences, ask you to continue bringing people to me? Bastards! You did not let me close a chapter in life. Is this what you wanted? To show? Yes, the case continues. Do not let people think I have the image you project. What is happening is that I am defending myself in court”, Bollo added during the outburst.

Far from softening her stance, Bollo continued to criticize the program and the network itself: “They treated me so badly and you continued to treat me psychologically. I do not care about Telecinco and its issues. Now it is enough.”
