Last weekend, an alert signal shocked the public and media as a gesture by Alicia Villarreal during a concert went viral, suggesting that her life is in danger due to the domestic violence she is experiencing at the hands of her husband, Cruz Martínez.
Alicia Villarreal, a former member of Grupo Límite, had taken legal action against Martínez, producer and founder of the Kumbia Kings, following rumors of physical aggression towards her. The information was confirmed by journalist Javier Ceriani, who mentioned a restraining order against Martínez and the police presence outside the couple's house in Monterrey as a preventive measure.
Hugo Mejuto, producer and friend of Villarreal, mentioned in an interview that the singer performed at a concert in Michoacán despite her physical and emotional state, revealing that she had been in the hospital the night before the event. Villarreal was beaten, showing visible marks on her arm, confirming the situation of violence she is facing.
Regarding the support received, actor Arturo Carmona stated on the morning program Hoy that, although he cannot comment on others' situations, he is willing to support Villarreal in any circumstance for the well-being of her daughter. Carmona also mentioned that, despite the situation, he continues to work alongside Cruz Martínez, as their professional relationship is independent of family issues.
The situation has generated concern and solidarity from her followers and colleagues, who hope that Alicia Villarreal can overcome and escape this difficult situation of domestic violence.
