The alleged death of Mexican actor Eduardo Capetillo for unknown reasons has been circulating on social media. Is it true?
‘ Is Eduardo Capetillo dead ?’, ‘What happened to Eduardo Capetillo?’, ‘Is Eduardo Capetillo dead?’, is the question that thousands of users have asked themselves after his presumed death was reported.
However, it is all false, as no information has been released about his possible death, nor any information from his family or team. In addition, the actor has been present on social media in recent weeks.
The last post of the interpreter of Sergio Santibáñez in the soap opera ‘Marimar’ was from three weeks ago, specifically on August 17, where he is seen very happy with his family.
If the above were not enough, Capetillo’s partner, Biby Gaytán , spoke on a television program about the relationship she has with her mother-in-law, María del Carmen, whom she considered a mother.
At no point in that conversation was it mentioned that her husband was ill, so it is understood that the news of his death is fake news, the origin of which is unknown.
Eduardo Capetillo did not die, he is still alive
Eduardo Capetillo did not die and on the contrary it was confirmed that he is in good health and above all alive, but in this way he joined the long list of celebrities who have died in an unhealthy way.
That list includes singers such as Marco Antonio Solís, Luis Miguel, and actors such as Angelique Boyer, Daniel Arenas and even Will Smith, but in all cases tunota.com denied them.
It is worth remembering that the objective of fake news is to create uncertainty and panic among the digital community, so it is recommended to consult reliable and fully credible sources.
