Yvonne Reyes is back in the spotlight—her participation in “Supervivientes” has returned the TV host to the top of public discussions, and with it, revived interest in some forgotten chapters of her personal life. One of the most sensational episodes was her romance with Ramoncín, which was a true media sensation at the time and ended not just in a breakup, but in a legal battle.
A TV Encounter
In the early 2000s, Yvonne Reyes and Ramoncín became the focus of celebrity news. Their relationship began while working together on “Crónicas Marcianas,” where both were regular guests and commentators. At the time, Ramoncín, known as the “Rey del Pollo Frito,” supported Yvonne during a difficult period after her breakup with Pepe Navarro and the birth of her son. Their friendship quickly turned into a romance, which did not go unnoticed by the public and the press.
Scandal at the Airport
However, passion and media attention played a cruel trick on the couple. As reported by Divinity, in December 2000, when Yvonne and Ramoncín arrived at Barcelona Airport, well-known paparazzo Enric Bayón tried to photograph them. The situation quickly escalated: a quarrel broke out between Ramoncín and the photographer, ending with a punch to the reporter's face. This incident led to a court case, where Bayón’s lawyer demanded that the singer pay a hefty fine and compensation for moral damages.
Court Case, Breakup, and Consequences
The legal case ended for Ramoncín with a fine of 205,000 pesetas — the court took into account his admission of guilt and his explanation that he acted in a state of emotional distress. At the time, the singer stated that he did not understand why journalists were so persistently pursuing his private life. This unpleasant episode became the last straw for the couple: the relationship between Yvonne and Ramoncín quickly fizzled out, but according to the musician himself, the breakup was without hard feelings. He repeatedly emphasized his admiration for Yvonne's strength and independence, who raised her son alone.
