The theater, film, and television actor, who gave George Peppard his deep voice in The A-Team, and was married for 40 years to singer Concha Márquez Piquer, died Thursday in Alarcon.
In 2021, when his wife and partner of almost 40 years, Concha García Piquer, daughter of the legend of the Spanish song Concha Piquer, died, Ramiro Oliveros (whom he married after separating from Curro Romero) confessed in the Magazine: If You don't If it were not for my daughter [Iris], I would have ended my life the day Concha died.
Although he was married three times (the last, in 1982), the singer was the great love of a life that he dedicated to his wife and acting, a field on which he carved out a long career in film, television, and theater as an actor, director, and voice actor (he voiced George Peppard in the series The A-Team).
Born in 1941 in Madrid, Ramiro Oliveros died at the age of 82 after a long illness, which worsened when he suffered a heart attack last October. He abandoned his medical studies for an acting vocation and trained as a theater actor at the Royal Court Theater in London, as well as in Paris and Frankfurt.
He alternated the stages with cinema and television, an area in which he stood out in the 70s and 80s in televised plays that were broadcast on Estudio 1 and in the series The Saga of the Rius or the black mask. In the cinema, he participated in more than 40 films, achieving great popularity among B movie lovers. He said goodbye to the tables in 2000 participating in the play Don Juan Tenorio, directed by Gustavo Pérez Puig, with Juan Carlos Naya, at the Spanish Theater; and with Eloísa under an almond tree (2001), on the centenary of Jardiel Poncela.
The tragedies of Concha Márquez Piquer
Concha Márquez Piquer was the third wife of Ramiro Oliver. His first wife, with whom he had two children, died in 1974. He separated from his second, an Argentine photographer, in 1982, the year in which he married the daughter of Concha Piquer. He shared with her the joy of having a daughter but also the tragedy of losing another.
In 1986, Coral Romero Márquez, the youngest of the two daughters of Concha and the bullfighter Curro Romero died in a traffic accident, and the one who was to inherit her career as a singer from her mother and her grandmother. Coral was going to record three albums with her group Avenida Pasión, but she did not return from a trip she was making to the United States. Most tragically, her mother had a premonition of her and asked her not to travel.
Concha Márquez Piquer was also the first celebrity to get divorced in Spain, one year after the law was approved. Married to the bullfighter Curro Romero, whom she met as a teenager, she got tired of her partying and infidelities. After the divorce, a battle of wills began between the two, motivated by the desire of the bullfighter and his new partner, Carmen Tello, to marry in the Church. The singer rejected the annulment until the moment of her death.
