Overview
- The Globo rerun on Vale a Pena Ver de Novo has renewed attention to Chris Pitsch, with O Globo publishing a new interview with her sister by upbringing, Lubianca Pagliuca Cavedini dos Santos.
- Pitsch died in 1995 at age 24 from a fulminant heart attack after being diagnosed at 14 with a congenital heart condition.
- She fell ill while alone at her home in Botafogo, Rio de Janeiro, and was found unconscious by her father and boyfriend, Beto Pitsch, when they returned.
- A Viagem was her only television credit following theater work such as Pássaro de fogo and Draculinha, which led Solange Castro Neves to invite her to the novela.
- Family recollections note that she adopted her boyfriend’s surname and that her mother still avoids watching the current reprise.
