Last Friday, Paola Olmedo appeared in the studio of a popular talk show to openly discuss her personal life and complex relationship with her former family for the first time. The ex-wife of José María Almoguera did not shy away from tough subjects: she spoke in detail about the reasons for their breakup and explained why the divorce documents have yet to be signed. According to Paola, the prolonged process is due not only to financial issues but also to her desire to protect their child’s privacy.
A key focus of the conversation was the conflict with Carmen Borrego, which flared up after private audio messages were leaked. Olmedo did not make excuses and openly apologized to her former mother-in-law, emphasizing she is ready to ask for forgiveness as many times as needed. She admitted that the content of those recordings did not reflect her true feelings, and that the situation arose from poorly worded thoughts during a private conversation. Paola also pointed out that she never experienced any mistreatment from the Borrego family.
Family Disagreements
During the interview, Paola shared that her relationship with Carmen Borrego is now peaceful, even though they are not in close contact. According to her, Carmen is always willing to help when it comes to her role as a grandmother, and despite past differences, both sides strive to maintain mutual respect. Olmedo stressed that she does not seek conflict and does not want to be drawn into other people’s disputes.
She also touched on the topic of estrangement between Carmen and her son after the birth of her grandson. According to Paola, it was José María who decided not to give his mother the real address, fearing a leak of information. This decision meant that Borrego was unable to meet her grandson right away. Olmedo tried to mediate between the grandmother and the child, believing that both sides have the right to be part of the boy’s life.
Personal experiences
Paola admitted that she found herself in a difficult position between her mother and son, receiving conflicting messages from each of them. She noted that she does not want to be a mediator in their conflict and prefers to stay out of the family disputes. According to her, she has already moved on from this painful chapter and does not intend to reopen old wounds.
At the end of the conversation, Olmedo once again emphasized that she holds no grudge against any of her former relatives and wishes peace to everyone. She expressed hope that, over time, family relations will improve and her son will grow up in an atmosphere of respect and support from both grandmothers.
In case you didn’t know, Carmen Borrego is a well-known Spanish TV presenter and the daughter of the legendary María Teresa Campos. The Campos family has been one of the most talked-about in Spanish media for decades, thanks to their public profile and numerous personal dramas. Paola Olmedo, Borrego’s former daughter-in-law, found herself in the spotlight after breaking up with José María Almoguera and the subsequent audio recording scandal. Despite their differences, both parties are trying to maintain respect for the sake of the child and avoid further conflict.
