Margaret Rose of Francis this Monday revived the conversation about whether or not he maintains a friendship with Amparo Grisales. The discussion began with a tweet from Francisco that read: “You can tell someone to ‘shut up’ when you don’t have the power to silence them by force.”
Grisales, apparently, felt alluded to and replied: “shut up sister. I don’t like that kind of force and less used when you have ‘power’. Breathe friend (although according to you we never were)”.
After that comment, Francisco replied: “Divine woman, I hope you never shut up. Even this scolding looks good on you”.
Message in which the tone of the letter that Margarita Rosa later addressed to Amparo Grisales and which she titled: “Dear Amparo”, published this Tuesday on her personal blog Margarita Va Sola, can be glimpsed.
“What a good opportunity I am giving myself to tell you a few truths”, reads the letter that, although public, De Francisco clarified that he filled it “with everything that entails writing to someone in private when that someone is deeply admired by the person who writes it.”
According to the actress and television presenter, the letter intends to “delve a little deeper into the feeling of admiration” that Grisales inspires in him. In this regard, he clarifies that this “is not necessarily blind.”
“You can admire someone, even this damned world, with all its imperfections,” Francis points out in the letter.
After an etymological approach, the actress interprets that “to admire is, then, look closely at a wonderwitness a miracle, approach something surprising and laugh in amazement at the unusual”.
Later he states that he admires Grisales for being a “phenomenon of autonomous and volcanic woman from the crown of the head to the tips of the feet” and says that her “position as a woman owner and proud of her sexual power was a statement of extreme impact” in her life.
According to De Francisco, the magnetism of Grisales continues to attract her today “every time I hear from you, even when you scold me on Twitter or say things you don’t like about me in the interviews they do to you”, he notes.
In the letter he also explains that the way in which Grisales expresses his disagreement or annoyance does not manages to undo the miracle of having looked into her eyes, kissedand corroborated that “the woman who challenged with her mere presence a prudish society like the Colombian, was, continues and will continue to be a real, living wonder.”
As he mentions at the beginning of the letter, De Francisco insists that his admiration is not blind and suggests that he can be filled with reasons to scold her “back”.
Regarding the friendship between them, he points out that “could not say that we have built a true because in it the obstacles are processed in the courageous intimacy of the conversation and from heart to heart”.
The actress and presenter concludes that the message is from an unconditional admirer “aware of your humanity in all its light and dark colors.”
Until now Grisales has not reacted to the actress’s letterwith whom he shared a set in “Los sins de Inés de Hinojosa”, a 1988 television series remembered as one of the most important on Colombian television for its break with the productions of the time.
