On June 19, 2025, Mexican-born Argentine actress and host Cecilia Galliano broke down in tears when she officially confirmed the death of her mother, Marta, who passed away on June 4.
The presenter shared the news during her podcast “Mate con Piquete”, where she said she had never faced such a great loss and wanted to open her heart to accompany those going through a similar grief.
Cecilia Galliano: A podcast full of emotion
In a preview of the special episode aired that same Thursday, Galliano explained:
“Today is going to be a very difficult program… my mom, a week ago or I don’t know how many days it is, but on June 4 she passed away… I never had a loss, today I open up with you,” she expressed in tears.
With her voice cracking, she added that she shares this moment with her audience to remind them that, in cases of grief, they should not face the pain alone: “if they cannot do it alone, there are people who can help us”.
Reactions from their environment
The episode was received with great empathy by the public and media figures:
Actress Wendy Guevara wrote: “My Ceci, I send you a mega hug and my condolences”.
Actor David Zepeda dedicated to her: “All the faith and love in the universe, Ceci dear”.
Marjorie de Sousa also expressed her support with an emotional “I’m so sorry, I hug you with all my heart”.
These demonstrations reflect the strong support he has received from the Hispanic community, both in Mexico and the US.
Marta: driving force in her life
Marta had always been Cecilia’s emotional pillar. Just a month ago, Galliano confessed his fear of losing her:
“When December comes around I see her older…we talk about ‘what if something happens to you’…she so strong…,” he said.
This closeness explained her absence from hosting La Casa de los Famosos Mexico 2025 and other commitments due to family reasons.
Elijo abrirme con ustedes para que si alguien está pasando por esto en este momento sepan que si no pueden solos hay mucha gente que los puede ayudar
