Florinda Meza recently faced a tough crowd of reporters. Her encounter was far from pleasant. She got many questions about old conflicts and private matters. The beloved actress kept quiet about what she felt was too personal. One topic that clearly bothered her was her relationship with María Antonieta de las Nieves.
Reporters caught up with the widow of Roberto Gómez Bolaños at Mexico International Airport. They asked about the health of ‘La Chilindrina.’ María Antonieta had a health scare in late August. She was hospitalized for low sodium and high stress. This caused her to feel unwell.
Florinda Meza showed clear signs of being annoyed. She responded with a sigh, “Look… Oh, I cannot answer for someone else. I know nothing about her. I heard about it, but I’ve only been back for less than eight days. I barely have time for what’s truly important.”
The journalists pressed on, asking her to send well wishes. Florinda Meza did so but added a twist. She wasn’t even sure María Antonieta de las Nieves was actually sick. “What I tell you is not journalism. You make people sick, you even kill people. So sometimes I don’t know what to say. But I will always wish well to those who were my colleagues.”
María Antonieta de las Nieves later calmed her fans. She appeared on social media after her health issue. She stated she suffered “severe dehydration.” This happened during her ‘La Chilindrina’ tour in Peru. She shared an update on her recovery in an Instagram post.
Florinda Meza spent over ten minutes surrounded by the press. Her patience finally snapped when a reporter asked about old fights with María Antonieta de las Nieves. “Do you think what you are asking is artistic? Does that seem like journalism to you?” she fired back. Both actresses worked together in the 1970s. They starred in ‘Chespirito’ TV shows like ‘El Chavo del Ocho’ and ‘El Chapulín Colorado.’
Florinda Meza Pushes Back on Ángela Aguilar Comparisons
During the same airport meeting, another reporter brought up a new hot topic. They compared Florinda’s past with Roberto Gómez Bolaños to the 2024 buzz around Ángela Aguilar and Christian Nodal.
“I don’t know her, I don’t know her,” the 76-year-old actress said. “I just found out about it with Adela.” Florinda’s comment, which you can see in this video, touched on history. Before her public romance with ‘Chespirito,’ he had separated from his wife, Graciela Fernández. Their legal divorce was finalized in 1989.
The reporter continued to draw parallels. They likened Florinda Meza to Ángela Aguilar. They also compared Graciela Fernández to Cazzu, Christian Nodal’s former partner.
Florinda Meza did not hold back. “They told me she took someone’s husband. Well, what is he, a hair clip? A ring? What about him?” she questioned. “What I believe is that no one should ever get involved in another person’s life.”
