Imelda Tuñón confirmed that she had been invited to take part in La Granja VIP 2, but said her lawyers ultimately advised her not to enter the reality show.
Tuñón said she had accepted TV Azteca’s invitation and was eager to participate. Her legal advisers, however, told her to wait until several ongoing matters were resolved.
Those matters include a dispute with her former mother-in-law over the actress’s visitation rights with Tuñón’s son, issues related to the inheritance of her late husband, Julián Figueroa, and accusations made against her by José Manuel Figueroa.
Not entering was no longer in my hands. I really wanted to go in, I was very excited, I had everything ready, and in the end it was the legal issue that stopped me from moving forward.
“Not entering was no longer in my hands. I really wanted to go in, I was very excited, I had everything ready, and in the end it was the legal issue that stopped me from moving forward,” Tuñón said.
She thanked TV Azteca executives Ana de la Vega and Adrián Ortega for considering her. Tuñón said she hoped they would consider her for the next edition and added that she would be available for a project that did not require her to participate around the clock.
I want to thank Ana de la Vega and Adrián Ortega very much for considering me for this reality show. I hope they consider me for the next edition, which I think will be calmer by then.
