Christian Bach She was one of the most popular actresses among Latin American audiences, whose star never stopped shining. Although the causes of her death remained a mystery, few dared to speculate as to what led the actress to withdraw from public life months earlier.
On March 1, 2019, the Zurita Bach family (her husband Humberto and her sons Sebastián and Emiliano) announced Christian’s death. It was a short message reporting that the producer had died of respiratory failure days ago (February 26). “It was always his wish to keep family matters completely confidential.”
Humberto Zurita remained true to this last wish. Every time he talks about who was his partner for more than three decades, he remembers that the protagonist of Hate Weddings never wanted her private life, especially that related to her health, to be public, let alone an occasion to morbidity.

Especially when they are associated with love, respect and affection,” he said. “I think that life without love has no meaning,” he said, echoing the words he had used for many months when they talked to him about finding a new partner.
Although they have known each other for a long time, he claims to have never seen her as a woman before. “It’s not that she wasn’t a woman, she was very small,” and there’s an 18-year difference between the two. “I thought she was very pretty and I always got along very well with her, and in the end she got along very well with Christian, they were very good friends and now I know it about her because she had Mich’s (Michelle Salas) piñatas with her “Sebastián’s,” he recalled.
What attracted him to Stephanie Salas, he says, was the family’s independence from the great dynasty from which it comes: his grandmother is the diva Silvia Pinal and his mother is Sylvia Pasquel. “She didn’t rely on that surname, it’s not that she ran away from them because she loves them very much and lives with them, but not artistically, she was always Salas, her father, that already made me do it “To appreciate them.” Among other aspects, they make the singer a free soul.

None of them think about what the future has in store for them.
Or maybe Humberto keeps matters of the heart private. Like Christian taught him.
