Overview

  • The biopic ‘Chespirito: Sin querer queriendo’ has revived public interest in Bolaños’s 2006 memoir confession that guilt over his affair prompted him to transfer all shared assets to Graciela Fernández.
  • According to his autobiography, Bolaños ceded two houses, multiple land plots, centenarios, his best car and all furniture to his first wife as part of their divorce settlement.
  • Graciela Fernández has reflected on her 23-year marriage as a joyful period and described suffering “mucho, mucho, mucho” after Bolaños ended their relationship.
  • Florinda Meza condemned the series as a “melodrama vulgar” full of “mentiras” that misrepresent her life and has signaled possible legal action against the producers.
  • Produced by Grupo Chespirito under his children’s direction, the HBO Max drama blends homage to his achievements with dramatized personal controversies, drawing sharp objections over its historical fidelity.
