Spanish celebrity news continues to buzz around Raquel Mosquera and her husband Isi, who has found himself at the center of a high-profile case. For nine months, the husband of the famous TV host and entrepreneur has been held in a French prison on drug possession charges. This episode led to a candid interview with Raquel Mosquera on the program ‘Fiesta,’ where for the first time she spoke in detail about the family drama, the reasons behind what happened, and how their lives have changed during this time.
A Trial for the Family
According to Raquel Mosquera, her husband’s arrest came as a real shock. She is convinced that Isi was drawn into the situation against his will. As Divinity notes, Mosquera believes her husband may have been used as a distraction: while Isi was being detained, others could pass through unnoticed. Despite this, she stresses that she has always trusted her husband and does not doubt his words. After their joint nightclub closed eight years ago, Isi led a quiet life, went into the restaurant business, and never asked his wife for financial support, even when the family faced difficulties.
Obligation and Consequences
One of the most discussed details is the debt which, according to Mosquera, was the reason behind Isi’s fatal decision. The amount ranged from 8,000 to 10,000 euros. Raquel admits she was shocked when she learned what had happened and does not hide that if her husband had turned to her for help, the tragedy might have been avoided. She recalls how sharply she reacted to the news, realizing that not only Isi’s freedom was at stake, but also the well-being of their children. Now, Mosquera is doing everything possible to secure her husband’s transfer to Spain and hopes that by October he will be released. She is also considering petitioning for third-degree prison status to speed up his return home.
Long-distance connection
Despite their forced separation, Raquel Mosquera emphasizes that their marriage remains unbroken. The couple stay connected through weekly phone calls, which Isi can only make on Sundays — the day Mosquera is off work and with her children and parents. She is confident that the feelings between them have not faded and describes their family as strong, despite the challenges. This stands out against the backdrop of other public stories where adversity leads to breakups: for example, there was recent discussion around Paz Vega’s choice of book after her split with Orson Salazar, which triggered another wave of media attention (details of Paz Vega’s reaction to changes in her personal life).
Awaiting changes
According to Divinity, Raquel Mosquera remains hopeful for a family reunion in the near future. She is actively working on bringing Isi to Spain and does not hide that this period has been one of the most difficult for her. Nevertheless, Mosquera emphasizes that despite financial difficulties and public pressure, she continues to believe in her husband and that their family will withstand this ordeal.
