Overview

  • Spanish outlets, led by ABC, report that Gutiérrez Müller obtained nationality under the Ley de Memoria Democrática and established residence in the affluent La Moraleja suburb.
  • Her 18-year-old son, Jesús Ernesto, is expected to enroll at a public Madrid university, most likely the Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
  • Spanish media figures and social-media users have reacted with irony and criticism given her influence on Mexico’s 2019 letter demanding an apology from Spain over the Conquest.
  • Morena leaders, including national president Luisa María Alcalde, have defended her personal freedom to choose her residence abroad.
  • Neither Gutiérrez Müller nor Spain’s Embassy in Mexico or the Foreign Ministry have issued official confirmation of her nationality or new address.
