Overview

• The claims appear in advance excerpts of “Lorena Ponce de León. De palabra,” a book by journalist Rosana Zinola previewed on August 28 by Búsqueda.
• Ponce de León says Lacalle Pou did not want her to have political visibility and told her that, if it were up to him, she would not have led Sembrando.
• She remained in charge of Sembrando through the end of the administration on February 28, 2025.
• She recounts moving out of the presidential residence in 2022, with the divorce finalized in 2024 after a period of separation.
• She says she might consider politics in the future but is focused on her professional work and a new relationship, as separate reports note Lacalle Pou later traveled with Corina Bove.
