Everything was agreed upon, Mirchi Romero, 47, and Francisco Montero, 29, were the godfathers of the Santa Engracia procession, in Lisbon celebrations this year. However, at the last minute, Merche Romero ended up being replaced by Bárbara Parada, the new girlfriend of Cristina Ferreira’s brother-in-law..
On the “Night of the Stars” program on the fourth Tuesday of this month, the broadcaster Maya noted that the commentator and DJ stopped answering phones and were absent from rehearsals and performances at MEO Arena. “Zaza has been left to walk on his own,” a late-night CMTV presenter commented.
Mirchi Romero was keen to clarify the controversy and justify the absences. “I already had two jobs scheduled, and when the ward schedule was found out, it was in the middle but very far away. I was in Cascais, I had to go to the MEO Arena and I had to play at 11:30 p.m., midnight, on the Costa da Caparica.“, he explained to “Magg”. According to Mersch, the marchers were already aware of the difficulties faced by the DJ. “When I was informed of the time, I immediately made it clear that it would be very difficult, but I would do everything possible and impossible“, he assumed. “I left well, at least that’s what I felt, that’s how I feel, calm. I’m happy, it’s very well cast and I’ll be here to support it“, he further confirmed.
