After the recent premiere of the documentary about the life and work of Dabiz Muñoz and the expected proximity of the Campanadas, an event in which Cristina Pedroche always dazzles with her new dress, all eyes are on this couple who has made headlines for his professional and personal success. However, the recent statements by Pedroche have revealed a lesser-known side to their relationship, where the chef’s unhappiness appears to be a major point of tension.
Cristina Pedroche has made the decision to speak openly about her marriage and the complicated situation she is going through with Dabiz Muñoz. On the podcast The formula for successhosted by Uri Sabat, The presenter has not held anything back, showing a sincere and vulnerable side. “He is not happy. It is only in very specific moments: when he is running, bathing the girl or we are in a restaurant, and that is not cool,” Pedroche confessed, making it clear that her husband’s situation is affecting not only her personal life but also her family environment.
This decision to publicly expose such intimate aspects seems to be motivated by the need to open a space for reflection and perhaps generate a change in the dynamics of the marriage. Pedroche described Muñoz as an “unhappy and stormy” person trapped in a spiral of self-criticism. Furthermore, he mentioned how this attitude is reflected even in everyday moments, like sitting down to eat at the chef’s restaurant: “He always points out something that isn’t right, even though I don’t see any problem. He is very self-critical, but there comes a point where that takes its toll on him.”
The presenter also addressed one of the more sensitive aspects of his family life: Dabiz’s relationship with his daughter, Laia. “Many times I tell her: ‘You are sacrificing moments with the girl to be in DiverXo’, but it is her life. “He’s juggling the best he knows how, but there’s always a part of him that’s at work.” This comment reveals Pedroche’s constant struggle to find a balance between work and family life, although she admits that her husband is moving forward “little by little and in his own way.”
Pedroche’s frankness not only surprisingbut also invites us to reflect on how professional success can impact personal relationships. In his own words, he tries to get Dabiz “to take refuge in the family, in our daughter, but he does it little by little and in his own way. Selfishly, I wish he would do it more.”
With the Chimes around the corner and media attention more intense than ever, Pedroche has shown unusual courage in exposing his personal life in this way. We will have to wait to see if these revelations are the first step towards a change in the relationship or simply a way to vent under the pressure of the spotlight. For now, the decision to open to the public has already made it clear that the happiness of Dabiz and his family is a priority for her.
