On July 21, 2023, the first anniversary of Marta Chávarri’s unexpected passing at the age of 62 was marked. Following the sad news, her only son, Álvaro Falcó, expressed that he was "devastated," as no one anticipated this tragic outcome. Marta had been experiencing a joyful moment in her life, eagerly awaiting the arrival of her first granddaughter, Philippa, in June. In fact, her last public appearance was filled with pride as she spoke fondly about the newborn, whom she described as "gorgeous."
Marta, who held the title of Marchioness of Cubas, was laid to rest with the support of her family and friends at the Tanatorio de la Paz, located in Tres Cantos, Madrid. Álvaro was surrounded by loved ones, including his wife, Isabelle Junot, and his aunts, María and Isabel Chávarri. They were visibly affected and in tears, providing crucial support during this difficult time. Many well-known figures also attended, such as tax inspector Gutiérrez Macet, Genoveva Fernández Longoria, Cari Lapique, and María Zurita.
On October 4, 2023, a memorial mass in honor of Marta Chávarri was held at San Jerónimo in Madrid. The emotional afternoon brought together the Falcó family, including Tamara, Xandra, and Amparo Corsini, who supported the Marchioness of Cubas. Additional family members, such as his maternal aunts Isabel and María, cousins, and figures like Raphael and Natalia Figueroa, were also present. Álvaro reflected on the ceremony, saying, "It was all very beautiful."
In just three years, Álvaro Falcó lost both his parents; his father, Fernando Falcó, passed away on October 20, 2020, at 81 after a hospital stay. His death came seven months after the passing of his brother, Carlos Falcó, Marquess of Griñón, as well as the recent loss of Jaime Carvajal Hoyos, the husband of cousin Xandra Falcó, a month earlier. This has undoubtedly been a challenging period for the Falcó family.
Despite the hardships, Álvaro Falcó has regained his smile, focusing on his roles as a husband and father. He married Isabelle Junot on April 2, 2022, at the Palacio de Mirabel in Plasencia, a romantic story covered exclusively by ¡HOLA! Their love blossomed further with the arrival of their daughter, Philippa, on June 11, 2023, named in honor of her maternal grandfather, Philippe Junot. Álvaro cherishes his new role as a father, with Isabelle mentioning, "Without a doubt, Philippa will be daddy’s girl."
Another essential pillar in Álvaro’s life is his aunt, Isabel Chávarri, who has stepped into the role of a second grandmother for Philippa. Heartwarming images published by ¡HOLA! showcased the special bond between Isabel and the baby as they took a stroll through Madrid. Additionally, María Chávarri has been present for significant moments in Philippa’s life, including her baptism on March 2 at San Fermín de los Navarros.
In the face of loss, familial bonds have only grown stronger, providing a network of support as they navigate this new chapter in life.
