Luana Andrade’s friends and family gathered this Wednesday (8) to pay a final tribute to the model. Among them was Celso Portiolli, who shared the stage with Luana on “Domingo Legal” on SBT. In an interview with “Fofocalizando”, the presenter remembered the last moments with the young woman. Andrade died yesterday afternoon after suffering four cardiac arrests during liposuction surgery.
The wake took place at the Valle Dos Reis Cemetery in the Jardim das Oliveiras in Taboão da Serra, in the São Paulo metropolitan area. Speaking to the press, Celso lamented the death of the 29yearold influencer. “An unexpected loss of such a young girl. Luana was a wonderful work companion. A Christian girl, a dreamer, a family who experienced a very special moment. 2023 was a very special year for her. She was very happy,” the veteran said.
According to Portiolli, the team at Sunday’s attraction received the news with shock. “It hurt us a lot,” he described. He also enthusiastically talked about his last meeting with Luana, who was excited to record her first advertising campaign on television. “[O último encontro foi] Sunday, Sunday on the program. In fact, she did her first merch campaign on Sunday and was super happy. But you can never imagine… When they gave me the news, I was very surprised because there was a movie playing in my head, I was surprised, very shocked,” he recalled.
The presenter was accompanied by program director Rubens Gargalaca Junior, who also praised the young woman and lamented her premature departure. “I can’t believe it, it seems to be a lie… Even if it was only for a short time, things were very good with Lu. “She was a sweet girl, always smiling, always happy,” he commented.
