The love story between Roberto Gómez Bolaños and Florinda Meza began in an unexpected way. Roberto, watching a monitor, noticed Florinda without knowing her, and recommended her for a program without even having seen her in person. Despite being unkempt and without makeup at the time, she captured Roberto's attention.
Florinda recalls how, on one occasion, she attended a reading for a Chespirito program and was not recognized at first due to her polished appearance, which surprised her. Despite the initial confusion, Roberto was always kind and attentive, treating everyone equally, especially novice actors.
In a preview of the bioseries of Roberto Gómez Bolaños, it is revealed that Chespirito's rise in the entertainment world was marked by his fear of presenting to the public the creation of El Chapulín Colorado. Over time, the idea of launching El Chavo del 8 required a large casting of actors, which led Roberto to meet Florinda, whom he had already seen before.
Despite Florinda's initial doubts about Roberto, he persisted in showing her his interest, which eventually led to a friendship that turned into a romance. As Gómez Bolaños's fame grew, his wife began to feel distanced, seeing her husband enter a different sphere of society than before.
Florinda Meza, in an interview on the show 'Hoy', revealed details about how her relationship with Roberto Gómez Bolaños began. Although she was not initially attracted to the comedian, over time feelings arose that led them to start a romantic relationship. Despite the complicated circumstances, Florinda managed to establish herself as the only woman in Roberto's life, solidifying their love that would culminate in marriage in 2004.
The series, titled 'Chespirito: Sin Querer Queriendo', will explore the life and career of Roberto Gómez Bolaños and will premiere on June 5, 2025, on the streaming platform Max. The cast will feature various actors to bring to life the iconic characters created by Gómez Bolaños, and it promises to delve into the intricacies of the genius that revolutionized the world of entertainment.
