≡ The Life And Work of Mexican Telenovela Star Edith Gonzalez 》 Her Beauty

The best-known Mexican TV star, Edith Gonzalez
died last week. She was 54 years old. Edith was diagnosed with ovarian cancer
back in 2016, has had surgery and was in remission until recently. We want to offer condolences to her family
and fans who are mourning their beloved star.

Edith is probably the most famous telenovela
star in Mexico and all of Latin America, her career includes more than 50 films
and telenovelas. She started acting when she was still a child in the 70s and
since then has made a name for herself in show business. She often played
strong female characters, which made her quite a role model for a lot of
people. Let’s take a look at some of Edith’s most famous roles, shall we?

Her first leading role was that of Bianca Vidal,
a humble young woman who works during the day and studies at night. In this
telenovela, Edith’s character Bianca falls madly in love with her Literature
professor, José Miguel Medina, played by Salvador Pineda. The teacher is
married, there’s family drama and many other obstacles in the way of these two
being together. If you haven’t seen it – we urge you to watch it now.

Edith
González starred in “Corazón
Salvaje” with Eduardo Palomo. González played the
role of Monica, a delicate lady of the Mexican high society of the time. Both
characters become entangled in a long series of family conflicts and love
affairs, before realizing that they were made for each other. The events of the
telenovela took place at the beginning of the 20th century and the show became
an international success.

Another telenovela that Edith Gonzalez starred
in was called “I Will Never Forget You.” It’s
a story of Luis Gustavo and Esperanza who fall in love as children, but the
boy’s mother separates them and sends her son to study abroad. They never quite
forget each other and meet again 10 years later, but the mother is still
desperate to keep them apart. Drama ensues.

González was also the star of Salome, a remake of a popular La Colorina. Edith played Salomé, a
cabaret dancer D’Rubí who falls in love with a married millionaire, Julio
Montesino.

You’d think it was doomed from the start, but
Montesino’s wife is infertile, so his mother conspires to have Salome become
Monestino’s lover so that she could have a grandson.

Dona
Barbara is another brilliant telenovela that Edith is
known for. Based on the homonymous novel by the Venezuelan writer Rómulo
Gallegos, Doña Bárbara features González and Peruvian actor Christian Meier.
It’s a story of a woman who suffered horrible trauma at a young age and as a
result grew up to be quite a closed off, hardened woman who hates men, until
she meets Santos Luzardo, played by Meier.

These are just five of many roles that Edith played and we urge you to watch some of her movies and telenovelas. She was a talented and beautiful actress who loved what she did and always tried her best to bring happiness into the world. Even after she was diagnosed with cancer Edith stayed very open about her sickness and continued to share her story in interviews and through social media with the world and her fans, telling them how she’s coping, and what treatments she’s undergoing. At one point it seemed like she beat cancer. She went into remission after a year of treatments but unfortunately, cancer returned and took Edith away. She is survived by her husband Lorenzo Lazo Margáin and her daughter.
