What did Ethel Pozo say about her mother, Gisela Valcárcel?
The production of ‘America today’ prepared a special surprise for the hosts of the program, Ethel Pozo and Janeth Barboza, in honor of Mother’s Day. After sharing some photographs and videos of her families, Ethel was moved to tears when she remembered the effort that her mother, Gisela Valcárcel, made to support her from the moment she was born.
“With obstacles, with mistakes, with mistakes, because we all make mistakes (…) To my holy mother, who has been wonderful all my life, she raised me alone. She was a single mother at 17, she brought me into the world and fought for me alone. I have a 17 year old daughter and I can’t imagine. “I adore her and I love her”Pozo commented through tears. Later, Ethel thanked her late aunt, Martha, for taking care of her since she was a child.
And it is important to emphasize that, during Ethel Pozo’s childhood, her relationship with her mother faced challenges due to the successful career of the remembered ‘Señito’. In the 1980s, when Gisela Valcárcel was on the rise as a prominent figure on Peruvian television, her daughter spent most of her time with her maternal grandmother and her aunt Martha. This was because the blonde presenter, being a single mother, saw the need to balance her responsibilities between her work and taking care of her daughter.
