After being in the news during the week for his departure blessedBeto Casella sat at the table on the show he has hosted for the past 20 years Mirtha Legrand and didn’t shy away from talking about the topic in detail. At some point during the night, Chiqui surprised him with a direct question Edith Hermidahis historical shipping companion and who stood at the head of the consecrated cycle of elnine. “Did you have a relationship with her?“He fired. The driver’s reaction surprised everyone.”
It all started after Casella and the other guests – the actress Soledad Silveyrathe singer Yulia Zenko and the journalist Pilar Smith– They will talk about the alleged confrontation between the moderator and his panelist. “There are fake news stories that I let slip and even play with my cell phones because I know I’m helping them out.“, he initially justified himself. “I didn’t want to let it go, because the fact that it’s getting around that I might be angry with Edith because she didn’t want to come with me is something like an abuse of power for me,” he added.
Without letting Casella finish her idea, the television diva decided to get straight to the point. “Were you in love with her?”he shot without introduction. “I can’t answer that” he managed to respond while the rest of the guests couldn’t suppress their laughter. “He’s sitting at this table and has to answer,” Mirtha insisted as Casella stared at her. “Was there romance or was there no romance?”Pilar Smith took part in the interrogation.
“I can’t answer that.”“Casella insisted and although he accepted that nothing would be wrong because the two were single, he made it clear that he did not want to speak out of respect.”I would have to agree with her to see if we could ever say something short, but we wouldn’t do that without her permission.“was the explanation he gave, already with a mischievous half-smile on his face. “Now I’m in a relationship, but that was a moment of no commitment for both of us,” he clarified uncomfortably.
“Something happened, because when you say you have to agree with her, it’s because something happened. Otherwise you don’t say anything and that’s it.“, analyzed Smith. “But the most important thing is that today there is respect, and of course I respected her decision,” Casella wanted to end the topic by pointing out why Hermida chose not to accompany him on his move to America.
The relationship between Beto Casella and elnine It went bankrupt in July this year. From that moment on, the driver started thinking about changing the channel. Finally, on Friday, December 19, the driver said goodbye to Bendita and the authorities decided that Edith Hermida would continue to lead the historic cycle, at least for the summer. For his part, Casella will take on a new challenge in America in February, which he prefers not to talk too much about.
“My relationship with Edith remained intact, even though there were rumors on the networks or in a bad TV show about a “broken relationship,” Casella said THE NATION a few days earlier. “I would talk badly about myself if I were offended because my partner is not part of the new project. If she prefers safety over risk, if she thinks it’s a good opportunity to learn to drive, it seems to me in any case justified and I have absolutely nothing to blame her. We are adults and everyone knows their own professional, financial and even family reality. No grudge against anyone,” he expressed.
Although they go their separate ways today, Casella didn’t deny a future reunion. “With the crazy dynamics that television has, no one knows that we won’t be sharing work in the future. Being the pure-blooded Aries that I am, I love the challenge of putting on a new head, starting from scratch again and trying to make another program that works and people like. And that’s what we do,” he added.
