Host Ana Hickmann gave a long interview to Carolina Ferraz, the first since she was attacked by her husband Alexandre Correa on the 11th. In the conversation that Record shows tonight on Domingo Espetacular (26), Ana says that last Wednesday (22) she filed for the contested divorce with protection and gave details of the assault.
“I really started screaming because he wouldn’t let me go, I was scared of him,” the host said of the fight. She was emotional and cried at several points during the interview. “I’m the one who’s hurting here, and I’ve been hurting for a long time,” she said at another point, almost sobbing, suggesting that the crisis in the marriage has been going on for a long time.
Ana and Alexandre Correa have been married for 25 years and had an argument on the 11th at around 3:30 p.m. in the kitchen of their home in Itu (about 100 km from São Paulo). According to the police report, Alexandre, who fights JiuJitsu, pushed Ana against a wall and threatened to headbutt her. “Yes, he came to give me a headbutt,” says presenter Domingo Espetacular.
While trying to free herself, Ana injured her left arm, which was pressed against a sliding door. The fight took place in front of employees and the couple’s tenyearold son. “I was very ashamed,” he said.
In the interview, Ana says that after screaming and fighting against her soontobe exhusband, she called the military police because she was very scared. However, when the police arrived at the apartment complex where the presenter lives in a 2,600 square meter house, Correa was no longer there. This is how he avoided being arrested in the act.
Ana also speaks in the interview with Domingo Espetacular about filing for divorce based on the Maria da Penha Law (11.340/2006) and requesting a measure of protection to prevent Correa from getting within 500 meters of her. He is also not allowed to enter the couple’s companies.
The protective measure is used when there is a threat to the woman’s physical, psychological, moral, hereditary or sexual integrity. On the day she suffered the attack, Ana refused the appeal. She went back because Alexandre Correa was trying to get closer to her and her son.
Furthermore, the businessman would be armed. He denies it. “Yesterday [quinta, 23]When I went to Itu police station to give my statement, I was searched and no weapon was found. They searched my car and didn’t find a weapon. “The civil police broke into my apartment in São Paulo and didn’t find a weapon either,” he said on social media last Friday when his lawyer announced that he had also filed for divorce.
Based on the Maria da Penha Law, the divorce process is usually faster since the annulment of the marriage can be decided by the Domestic Violence Court. Depending on the application, there is no need to wait for a criminal ruling (in Ana’s case for assault) to obtain the divorce decree.
