"He has never attacked my physically, nor verbally and throughout the time we were together he demonstrated what a relationship of love, respect and integrity in a couple should be. My friends and some media outlets know that this has always been true, everything else is a lie, not only to José Alberto, but to me and that it deteriorates that memories of my most transcending relationship in the last years of my life.
