Mario Vargas Llosa and Patricia Llosa
In 1955, when he was only 19 years old, Vargas Llosa married his aunt-in-law Julia Urquidi, something that did not leave anyone indifferent, because she was also 13 years older than him.
However, the relationship was doomed to failure and they broke up shortly after. Mario Vargas Llosa's next love affair would last 50 years and would not be free from controversy either, since it was with his cousin Patricia, daughter of his uncles Lucho and Olga, sister of Julia, his wife. They married in 1965 when he was 29 and she was 19 years old. The couple had three children and created an association that united them even more and made Patricia his right-hand woman. However, in 2015 the writer decided to ask for a divorce from his wife to begin a romantic relationship with his friend who had been his for 20 years, Isabel Preysler.
Kris Jenner and Bruce Jenner
The second marriage of the Kardashian matriarch, Kris, came from the hand of Bruce Jenner (currently Caitlyn Jenner). They married on April 21, 1991. Kris has two daughters with Caitlyn, Kendal and Kylie. In September 2014, it began to be heard that the couple was in divorce proceedings. It was stated that the divorce suit was filed by Kris Jenner due to "irreconcilable differences", and a few months later Bruce surprised by announcing that she would become Caitlyn Jenner.
Juana Acosta and Ernesto Alterio
Juana Acosta and Ernesto Alterio met in 2003 in a bar in the capital and the actress has always said that it was "love at first sight." Acosta and Alterio met shortly after she arrived in Spain from Colombia, her homeland. Her love and desire to start a family pushed her to stay in our country, where she consolidated her career at the same time she became one of the queens of the red carpets due to her elegance. After more than 14 years of relationship behind her back, many thought that Juana Acosta and Ernesto Alterio were married and, however, they never crossed the altar. What the couple did have was a daughter, Lola. When both announced their separation, the film world was surprised, since it was the type of courtship that seems eternal.
José Bono and Ana Rodríguez
The president of the Congress of Deputies and former president of Castilla-La Mancha, José Bono was married to the Guatemalan Ana María Albina Rodríguez Mosquera for 30 years. Together they had three children and, in 2001, Bono and his then wife adopted Sofía, a girl born in Chile who arrived at the Bono home when she was seven months old. Although the couple always looked ideal and happy in front of the media, in 2006 it seems that they could have suffered a major crisis that motivated the politician to present his resignation as Minister of Defense "to dedicate more time to the family." Apparently, Bono, who is a man of firm religious beliefs, would have had a hard time making the decision to separate. But the situation between them became very complicated and, on July 19, 2010, the couple made their divorce official.
Felipe González and Carmen Romero
The politicians Felipe González and Carmen Romero met in Seville through mutual friends. It is said that at that time the former president of the Government had a relationship with a classmate of Carmen Romero, which he did not hesitate to end when he noticed that she would be his wife for almost four decades. The couple married after 24 months of courtship by proxy and civilly on July 17, 1969 through a ceremony in which the former mayor of Seville, Luis Uruñuela, represented the groom, because he was in Bordeaux at a PSOE meeting in exile. The groom was able to arrive in the Andalusian capital the next day and it was then that the religious ceremony took place in the Loreto monastery. The couple spent the first years of their marriage in Seville and, in 1975, they moved to Madrid with their two eldest children. Three years later the little girl, María, was born. This marriage was always characterized by being very united and exuding complicity. However, after 37 years of marriage, PSOE sources confirmed the separation of Felipe González and Carmen Romero, although many people have commented that the couple had been living separate lives for years.
