Miami, United States.- Last Thursday night, February 22, several celebrities gathered at The Lo Nuestro Awards where various emotions were experienced, from disappointment because Christopher Uckerman and Christian Chávez could not enter the event to the excitement caused by the announcement of a new collaboration between Shakira and Shaving. However, among all of them, there was one moment that managed to steal the heart of the audience.
It turns out that the awards managed to bring together two great celebrities from the beginning of the decade of the 2000s – Gabriel Soto and Adamari Lopez. While they never had a romance in real life, they managed to move the audience of “Friends and rivals,” a youth soap opera that was very successful at that time and featured celebrities like Ludwik Paleta, Angelica Vale, Michelle Vieth, Arath de la Torre, Johnny Lozada, and Rodrigo Vidal.
Within the story, Lopez and Soto gave life to ‘Ofelia’ and ‘Ulises, el feo,’ whose dynamic managed to move the public as they both grow closer. She begins to suffer discrimination because she is HIV positive due to a life full of excesses, with Gabriel’s character being the only one who treats her well. Eventually, they fall in love and get married.
Adamari no longer lives in Mexico but made the leap to Miami, so last night she was seen on the red carpet of the gala, where she took the opportunity to take some photographs next to Gabriel Soto, who did not hide his excitement at reuniting with his former classmate from the job. These images caused a stir among former fans of the novel as they allowed people to see what ‘Ofelia’ and ‘Ulysses’ looked like after 23 years.
Comments left about the photograph highlighted the happiness of fans knowing that both actors maintain a good friendship after so many years of working together: “It’s great that after this time of being colleagues there is such a beautiful relationship,” and “Forever ‘Ulysses’ and ‘Ofelia’.” The publication gathered more than 153,078 reactions from the over 9 million followers on Instagram.
