MIAMI - Once a titan in the world of telenovelas, Valentino Lanús had faded from public view since 2018. In his scarce posts on social media, his fans followed his new life in the Riviera Maya, where he was raising a daughter surrounded by nature. Nobody knew he was fighting for his life.
The Mexican actor, renowned for his roles in "El juego de la vida," "Amar sin límites," and other hits, had found a new script to follow—one that led him away from the limelight and into the heart of the jungle. There, he searched for alternative ways to beat a cancer that had spread to his intestines. His days on television seemed like a closed chapter until recently, when he was spotted at Televisa San Ángel in Mexico. It was a prelude to a plot twist no one saw coming—his return to the world of telenovelas.
