[SougarLord]

Plácido Domingo jr., Son of the singer, has come out in defense of his father after the Uruguayan soprano Luz del Alba Rubio, exercising her right to reply after the interview with Plácido Domingo in La Repubblica, repeated through this same medium, the accusations of sexual harassment, including violence, and abuse of power that he made a few months ago. I am surprised - writes Plácido Domingo jr. on his Facebook account- from what I read in the statements of a person who until February 26, 2020 seemed close to me and my family.

 

The singer and composer also assures that in recent months he has seen his parents suffer, and that before the totally unjustified fury he is forced to show the world the hypocrisy of Mrs. Luz del Alba Rubio.

 

 

Plácido Domingo jr. publishes along with this text the captures of several WhatsApp messages that Luz del Alba Rubio sent to the two sons of the Madrid tenor, Álvaro and Plácido himself, expressing solidarity and regret for what was happening to the family, "insistently asking us backstage access to us and my father's assistant, sending "sincere" wishes on my parents' wedding anniversary, etc ... All this happened when, according to her, she had already made her anonymous statement against me father.

 

The son of the tenor also alludes to the various occasions on which Luz del Alba Rubio had assured in television interviews or in the printed press that he expected help in his career from my father, simply because I was involved in some of his musical projects, as if his invitation to sing was a 'bargaining chip' to get favors from my father.

Plácido Domingo jr. alludes to the Uruguayan soprano's own statements to La Repubblica: In 2016 I asked Maestro Plácido Domingo to help me restart my career, after interrupting it due to my pregnancy. It seemed natural to me after helping your son. We met in New York and he said, '' You sing better than before, very well. '' But then she did nothing.
