Bogotá (Colombia) (AP) For decades, famed Colombian writer Gabriel Garca Márquez has kept the public from learning about an intimate aspect of his life: he had a daughter with a Mexican author, with whom he married in the early 1990s. He had an extramarital affair. The closely guarded secret was published on Sunday by Colombian newspaper El Universal and confirmed to the Associated Press by two relatives of the Nobel Prize-winning author, who are known to have worked with cholera such as One Hundred Years of Solitude and Love in the Time. Famous for novels.
Márquez died in 2014 in Mexico City, where thousands of his readers stood to see his coffin in a concert hall. He was married to Mercedes Barcha for more than five decades and the couple had two children named Rodrigo and Gonzalo. He lived in Mexico City for most of his life. El Universal stated that in the early 1990s, Márquez had a daughter with Susana Cato, a writer and journalist who had worked with Mírquez on two film scripts and who also interviewed him for a 1996 magazine story. Had taken. Cato and Marquez named their daughter Indira: she is now in her early 30s and uses her mother’s surname.
One of the author’s nieces, Shani Garaka Márquez, told AP that she had known about her cousin Indira for years, but had not mentioned her in the media as her parents had always told her about her uncle’s personal life. Was told to live separately. Gabriel Eligio Torres Garca, who is also the Colombian writer’s nephew, said he has been in touch with Indira Cato via social media, although he has never met her in person.
My cousins Rodrigo and Gonzalo told me about him casually during a reunion, he said. Other members of Garca Márquez’s family, quoted by El Universal, said they had not spoken about the author’s daughter earlier in honor of Mercedes Barcha, who died in August 2020. Torres Garca said Indira Cato’s mother Susanna was also different about him. Daughter’s pedigree, to keep her away from the media spotlight.
Indira Kato is now a documentary producer in Mexico City. He won several awards in 2014 for a documentary on migrants passing through Mexico. She leads a very artistic lifestyle, as many in this family told Shani Garka. It gives us great pleasure that she has shined on her own. (AP).
