Andrea Mota, widow of singer Leandro, stars in the reality show “Poderosas do Cerrado,” where she showcases her luxurious mansion in Goiânia, highlighting the statement pieces and cutting-edge architecture, while sharing details of her life and business path.

The widow of singer Leandro, who was in a duet with his brother Leonardo, Andrea Motta returned to the limelight by joining the cast of the film Strong cerradoa new reality show from GNT and Globoplay that shows the routine and luxurious life of millionaire women from Goiás.

At 51, the businesswoman and influencer has opened the doors to her mansion in the upscale Goiânia neighbourhood, which has become a frequent spot for her social media content, but is also an attraction in its own right.

The house is full of marble in different colors and will impress you as soon as you enter. One of the most striking spaces is the bathroom, which looks more like a party room, with giant mirrors, sofas in the waiting room, and a sink of gigantic proportions. The décor uses neutral colors – beige, white and grey, with wooden details – and reflects a classic and sophisticated style.

Among the most famous pieces in the palace is the 1.80-metre-tall chandelier, which Andrea bought at auction. The work, designed by designers Sara Castro and Juliana Pesa, takes pride of place in the main room and reflects the businesswoman’s taste in contemporary art and design. The space also includes a painting of Jesus that belonged to singer Leandro, given to him when he discovered cancer.

Another point that draws attention is the wine cellar designed by Andrea’s current husband, businessman Fernando Alves, which stores bottles of wine worth a few thousand reais. “He’s hiding the key,” Andrea joked in an episode of the reality show. “You can take the ones on top, but no one touches the ones on the bottom,” the husband replies.

With modern architecture, the property has a large plot of land surrounded by greenery. An entertainment area with a pool, field and gourmet space is a family haven, while the marble-lined and chandelier-lined elevator is Andrea’s favourite.

The businesswoman’s story goes beyond luxury. Andrea, a former model, met Leandro in the 1990s and left her career at the singer’s request. They married in 1994 and had two children, Leandra and Leandro. After the compatriot’s death in 1998, she rebuilt her life alongside Fernando Alves, to whom she was married for 23 years and with whom she had three more children: Fernando, Felipe and Gabriel. Today, she runs businesses in the real estate, agriculture and cosmetics sectors, and defines herself as a woman of faith and resilience.
