Mónica Cervera had been trying her hand at the film industry since the end of the 1990s. She starred in several short films and later appeared on the small screen, but her real success came only in 2004 after her role in the Spanish-Italian thriller “Crime of Perception” directed by Alex de la Iglesia.
This role earned her prestigious nominations. How did Mónica Cervera’s career develop?
Making her debut on the big screen, for her portrayal of the character Lourdes, she was first nominated for a Goya Award by the Spanish Academy of Film Arts, and then was recognized by the European Film Academy. Critics admired her characteristic beauty and extraordinary naturalness in front of the camera, and in numerous reviews they argued that she was the hope of Spanish cinematography. However, this was not confirmed by subsequent productions in which she took part. Although Cervera focused largely on theater performances, she also appeared in several films and series. Unfortunately, her roles went unnoticed.
Is Mónica Cervera homeless? Spanish media circulated disturbing photos of the actress
After Cervera last appeared in an episode of “La que se cera” in 2016, she was not heard from again. Now it turned out that the former star of Spanish cinema lives in poverty. The 48-year-old has no roof over her head and sleeps on a park bench in her hometown of Marbella, with all her belongings in a small backpack and bag. In an interview with the “Semana” magazine, she admitted that the past was far away and she did not intend to return to working in front of the camera. – I was there, but I don’t want to go back to it. I feel good the way it is. I don’t want to talk about the past – .
As the journalist reported in the same article, her parents have an apartment near where the actress lives. Although they apparently offered her help, she does not want to move in with them and, as she claims, does not keep in touch with them. However, she did not want to explain the reason, claiming that it was too personal a topic to discuss in the media. At the same time, she emphasized that she did not need anyone’s support and could cope on her own. “I don’t need anything from anyone,” she said.
She has now turned to social services with the same issues and hopes that their employees will be able to provide her with appropriate support and “ensure her stability.” At the moment, her only source of income is the money she receives from passers-by by begging on the street.
