His arrival in Caracol was first in the midday slot with Adriana Amat. In 2001 she replaced María Cristina Uribe in the central broadcast of the newscast and she sat next to Isaac Nessim. Today she is next to Jorge Alfredo Vargas on the 7 pm broadcast.
In the Caracol radio podcast, ‘Great and older than me’, hosted by Vannesa de la Torré, Malú told part of her life. Among many of the things he said, he exposed a problem from his past that many women and also men who are separated mothers and fathers who have custody of their children live and have lived and that is the fact that the absent father or mother does not He is financially responsible for his children.
This is what happened to Malú after separating from her first husband, Juan Castañeda, with whom she had her only two children, Juan Martín and Lorenzo. Malú decided to separate from Castañeda after the marriage began to deteriorate. The couple was married for 10 years. After the separation, Malú had to finish raising her two children alone. Her ex-partner was not financially responsible for her children, who at that time were still children.
Malú’s response to her ex-husband’s irresponsibility was to sue him, she says that they were difficult times and that she started the process against the father of her children more out of dignity. Malú ends that part of the conversation with a kind of invitation to women who go through the same thing: “If she doesn’t want to pay because she doesn’t want to, the law and the judicial system force the men.”
