Overview
- Thelma Stefani died by suicide after jumping from her 21st-floor balcony in Buenos Aires.
- Her boyfriend, Alejandro Luvello, who was 12 years younger, witnessed the fall.
- Hours before, reports say she drank beer, took Lexotanil, phoned loved ones, and left a note saying she no longer wanted to live.
- Despite lead turns at Teatro Maipo and on telenovelas as a vedette — the star of Argentina’s revues — she battled depression and felt the business prized her figure over her talent.
- The article notes a later coincidence at the same address, citing a fatal fire in Felipe Pettinato’s apartment and his recent three-year sentence without prison time.
