Mayor of Madrid, José Luis Martínez-Almeidavisited El Hormiguero this Tuesday to chat with Pablo Motos of the latest current events, after the huge tragedy of the DANA.
After talking about politics, the presenter moved on to personal topics. “The last time we spoke you were single, how is married life?” the Valencian asked him.
“Very well and I had doubts, not because of her, but because of me. In the end, 49 years as a bachelor is a lot and you become manic. Getting to live up to someone like Teresa is costing me, but I’m going little by little. Also I’m learning things like how to dress in the dark, since I get up earlier than her.“, replied the mayor.
Motos also wanted to know if it was true that it was his wife who took the initiative in the relationship: “Yes, we met at an art fair. Then we met a couple of times by chance at events, until we one day she asked me for the contact, and I, instead of the phone, gave her my email address“, he confessed.
“The last time you came here you told me that you always had an empty fridge, has that changed since you’ve been a married man?“, recalled the host of the Antena 3 program.
Martínez-Almeida replied that “no, not at all. Between me and my wife, we can’t even get a fried egg together, we are a disaster.. My mother-in-law gave us a food processor, but it serves the same purpose as a vase, as a decorative object”.
Lastly, the Valencian commented that he knew that his guest had a number of hobbiesFor example, I arrive at a set table and I always have to place the cutlery and glasses in my own way, in line”.
“It happens to me even when I go to palace dinners that everything is millimetered.. This mania comes to me from when I was studying and I had to prepare my desk with pens, sheets of paper and books perfectly ordered, otherwise I couldn’t start studying,” he admitted.
“Also if I go to a soccer match and Atlético de Madrid loses, I have to change my scarf.I don’t wear that one anymore. There are seasons when I spend a lot on scarves. It’s a mania that serves no purpose, but it doesn’t hurt anyone either,” she concluded.
