The past few weeks have become a true test of resilience for well-known TV host Lydia Lozano and her loved ones. Her husband, architect Charly, with whom she has shared her life for forty years, ended up in a hospital bed more than two months ago. It all started with what seemed like ordinary back problems, but the situation rapidly deteriorated, leading to a serious cardiac procedure and causing deep concern for his health. Recently, Lydia decided to break her silence and speak out about her husband’s current condition, as well as share her most heartfelt request.
Charly’s grave condition forced the journalist to temporarily leave her workplace. This fall, she had enthusiastically started working as a participant on a new Friday television show, but family issues compelled her to step away from the studio for several weeks. Last Friday, the Madrid celebrity finally returned to the air, where she was welcomed by a longtime friend and colleague. Before delving into work-related discussions, she felt it was important to give viewers the latest update on her husband’s condition.
Lozano admitted that she now feels “much more optimistic” about the doctors’ prognosis. “You know, there’s a saying I really like: ‘No news is good news,'” she began her story. The main cause of complications turned out to be two bacteria found in Charlie’s body, which significantly complicated the initial diagnosis. “The fact that no new bacteria have appeared, and of the existing ones, one may already be receding and the other is noticeably weakening—this is just wonderful to me,” she explained in detail, describing the progress in fighting the infection.
Speaking about her own state, Lidia didn’t hide her emotions. “I feel like I’m being shaken, like Machín’s maracas,” she confessed honestly, describing her experiences. She confirmed that she has done her best to avoid crying in front of her husband, but understands he can clearly see how exhausted she is. Despite this, the TV host remains hopeful and is convinced that “after such an incredibly tough time,” brighter days are ahead.
Recently, journalists once again approached Losano, and she again spoke about Charlie’s condition. In a brief interview, she expressed immense gratitude to the medical staff who have cared for her husband since the very first day. She emphasized that her only prayer now is “that another bacterium doesn’t appear.” When asked about a possible discharge date after more than two months in the clinic, she replied that she “has no idea.” “I have just one wish: that we’re home for Christmas Eve,” she shared through tears, revealing her greatest hope. Losano also mentioned that, in her absence, relatives are with her husband, and their pet is being looked after by an assistant whom, according to Lidia, she “owes her life to.”
By the way, Lidia Losano is one of the most famous and eccentric figures in Spanish journalism, specializing in celebrity news. Her television career spans several decades, and her emotional, vibrant style has made her a household name across the country. She rose to fame through appearances on popular talk shows focusing on scandals and celebrities’ private lives. Her marriage to architect Carlos “Charlie” García-San-Miguel, who has always remained in the background of his famous wife, has lasted over 30 years and is considered one of the strongest in Spanish show business.
