Spanish model Irene Rosales has remained silent in Seville following reports of growing family tension surrounding her ex-husband, DJ Kiko Rivera, and his new partner Lola García.
Rosales declined to speak to reporters outside her home regarding claims that Rivera's uncle, Agustín Pantoja, harbors deep suspicions about the dancer's motives.
According to journalist Antonio Rossi on the television programme De lunes a viernes, Agustín Pantoja does not view his nephew's relationship favorably. Rossi reported that the brother of singer Isabel Pantoja suspects García is seeking professional proximity to the performer in hopes of sharing the stage with her, rather than simply pursuing a romantic connection with Rivera.
Tensions and Media Leaks
When questioned by reporters about these allegations, Rosales offered only a smile and remained silent. Her refusal to comment comes amid separate reports suggesting Rivera may have accused her of leaking private family information to the press.
Rosales also avoided commenting on recent statements made by model Jessica Bueno. Bueno stated that she was unaware their shared son, Francisco, was spending part of his summer holidays in Gran Canaria with his grandmother, Isabel Pantoja, during dates he was scheduled to be with his father.
When asked by Europa Press whether her own daughters with Rivera, Ana and Carlota, had also traveled to the Canary Islands with the singer while Rivera continues his medical recovery, Rosales chose not to provide any details.
Relationship and Health Setbacks
Rivera and García, a 39-year-old dancer from Seville who directs a dance academy in Madrid, made their relationship public in December 2025. The announcement came a few months after Rivera and Rosales officially ended their marriage.
García has remained by Rivera's side throughout his hospitalization and ongoing rehabilitation following a health setback on July 20. The DJ, who previously suffered a stroke in 2022, was forced to cancel all of his professional summer commitments to undergo treatment aimed at recovering mobility and strength on the left side of his body.
Rivera is the son of Isabel Pantoja, one of Spain's most prominent traditional singers, and the late bullfighter Francisco Rivera, known as Paquirri. His uncle Agustín Pantoja has long managed aspects of the family's artistic career and personal affairs, making their internal dynamics a frequent subject of media focus in Spain.
While Rivera focuses on his physical recovery alongside García, whom he previously described publicly as the woman of his life, Rosales continues to focus on her personal life in Seville alongside her partner Guillermo as the couple approaches their first anniversary together.
