María García García, better known as Bárbara Rey, was and is a victim of sexist violence. And now he is also a victim of violence on television after his son, Ángel Cristo Rey, decided to give an interview on Telecinco to clarify the story that we know thanks to its protagonists. That his mother is a victim, yes, but that it was not easy for the father to digest that his wife was a stunning blonde with long legs who tamed men like elephants that Rocío Dúrcal kissed in the film “I Feel Strange”. had . “It drove him crazy,” he said on set Friday. Only journalist Patricia Izquierdo was the one who reacted to such a statement. There was no justification for mistreatment, he told her. Good for them, not so much for the rest.

Some still don't understand that you can be both a victim and a bad person. You can be manipulative, a zero on the left, just as you can be a big woman with endless legs and show them and be mistreated. Having God in your throat and cleavage like the jury and being mistreated.
But when we thought that journalism had changed, when Rocío Carrasco's documentary taught us what vicarious violence and gaslighting are, that no one is free from being victims and even executioners at the same time, we chose The Shadows of Bárbara. We preferred that the alleged blackmail of Juan Carlos I, his recordings, his gambling addiction, his way of practicing motherhood and his own life were given more weight. As if one downplays the other, the hell she experienced with the father of her two children and the consequences of that. As if there were no wounds at all. So that later they say that everything is done.
