Former actor convert evangelical pastor made headlines months ago when he reacted to HBO docuseries about murder
A heart attack killed Guilherme de Pádua on Sunday night (6), in Belo Horizonte. The news was given by Pastor Márcio Valadão, of the Baptist Church of Lagoinha.
The former actor had turned 53 on 2, the Memorial of the Dead. He was married to Juliana Lacerda. Previously, he was Paula Maia’s husband between 2006 and 2014.
With his first wife, Paula Thomas, he had a son, Felipe, who is now 29 years old.
In January 1997, Guilherme was sentenced to 19 years and 6 months for the murder of actress Daniella Perez, his co-star in the Globo soap opera “De Corpo de Alma”.
Less than 5 months later, Paula was sentenced to 18 years and six months for participating in the crime that shocked Brazil and generated international repercussions.
The murder took place on the night of December 28, 1992, after Guilherme and Daniella left the production company Tycoon, in Barra da Tijuca, west of Rio.
That day, they had recorded the scene where Yasmin broke up with Bira. It was the end of the love story of the characters loved by the public and the life of the rising star on TV, at the age of 22.
The tragedy with Daniella Perez will turn 30 next month. The date inspired the production of the documentary series ‘Pacto Brutal’, which launched in July on the HBO Max channel.
The macabre plot was told by people close to the victim, witnesses and journalists. Her mother, Gloria Perez, author of ‘De Corpo e Alma’, gave a long and moving testimony.
The immediate success of the series brought Guglielmo da Padova back into the spotlight. On social media he complained that he was not heard by the directors.
Then he did the unimaginable: he recorded a video of mea culpa. “I thought about looking for lawyers for Raul, for Gloria. I thought I’d ask someone to mediate this meeting. I couldn’t imagine anything on the internet… Maybe I’ll never have a real opportunity to ask for forgiveness, ”she said.
“For this, Gloria Perez, I ask your forgiveness for all the suffering I have caused you. I have never forgotten that encounter in prison. Never forgotten. Raul Gazolla, I apologize. I never forgot the day I was called to the police station, you were there and crawled to me. she hugged me crying. And there I saw that I was the worst person in the world “.
The message generated the revolt of famous and anonymous people. Countless critical comments were directed at William, who swore he was a new man after becoming an evangelical. He was currently a parish priest and coordinated social assistance with former prisoners, like himself.
While in prison, awaiting trial, the former actor wrote a book. Classified as an “autobiographical novel”, it received the title “A História que o Brasil Desknow”. The work was even printed, but the Court prohibited its circulation and sale.
His sudden death comes at a difficult time for Gloria Perez. Aired for 1 month, the soap opera ‘Travessia’ has a low audience and negative rating. Raul Gazolla is part of the cast.
If she were alive, Daniella Perez would be 52 years old. The year her death turns 3 will be marked by the memories brought by the HBO series and the sudden end of her self-confessed killer.
