Demonstrating that he is not afraid of anything and willing to discover a facet of his so far unknown self, Rocío Carrasco embarks on his first reality show. The daughter of the legendary Rocío Jurado is one of the new contestants in TVE’s highly anticipated program, ‘Until the End of the World’ (translated as ‘Race Across the World’). This show, reminiscent of ‘Pekín Express,’ is hosted by Paula Vázquez . Contestants, including Alba Carrillo, Cristina Cifuentes, Jedet Ramos, and Nia Correia , will travel across Latin America on a limited budget, prohibiting airplanes and electronic devices.
Team-up for this thrilling adventure is Anabel Dueñas , with whom Rocío has shown an undeniable bond. They were seen sharing laughs at the Madrid airport on Monday, all set to begin their journey in Costa Rica , the first stop in this exhilarating contest. “We go, we left! I am very grateful for having the opportunity to experience this wonderful journey,” Rocío said, her face bright with excitement. She noted that she couldn’t ask for a better partner, as Anabel is one of her closest friends and has been a great support throughout the years.
As she looks forward to the upcoming adventure, Rocío expresses her genuine hopes, “I aim to experience it, have fun, and live in the moment .” She acknowledges the challenges she will face traveling through countries like Mexico, Bolivia, and Ecuador with minimal resources, relying mostly on her ingenuity and ability to adapt to various situations. “There’s no problem,” she insists, exuding confidence in her abilities.
Curiously, Rocío ponders what aspects of herself will be revealed during the series. “I don’t really know, but I believe they will see the true *Rocío.” * She adds, “I don’t know if they will be surprised, but you will see me as I am — just a normal person.” This open perspective reassures fans that they will witness her genuine self throughout the challenges that await.
Describing this adventure as a perfect moment in her life, Rocío explains, “Now is the right time for me. I’m in a great place, mentally and emotionally.” This refreshingly candid admission reflects her readiness to embark on this exhilarating journey. However, one downside of the experience is her separation from her husband, Fidel Albiac , with whom she has built a strong partnership over the past 20 years. “We have to juggle responsibilities and work; he is busy. But he understands that this is a great opportunity for me,” Rocío explains. While she acknowledges the emotional challenge, she emphasizes that Fidel supports her decision.
Staying true to her discreet nature , Rocío prefers not to delve into her family matters, especially concerning her uncle Amador Mohedano , who is currently facing health challenges after a recent hospital admission. “Honestly, I’m leaving, gentlemen,” she maintains, reiterating the same when inquired about her brother José Fernando , who is coping with personal loss. “I am leaving. I’m going to the end of the world, just so you know,” she concludes. This determination to keep moving forward highlights her resilience and commitment to focusing on her upcoming adventure.
This mix of excitement and anticipation overflows not only as Rocío Carrasco prepares for a significant chapter in her television career but also as she embraces the chance to showcase her true self . Fans and viewers alike will be intrigued to see how she navigates the challenges ahead and how her personality shines through in the face of adversity. From leaving behind familial complexities to embracing new experiences, Rocío’s journey promises to be an expedition filled with personal growth, friendship, and the pursuit of happiness.
