The Argentine chef Christian Petersen, known for being a judge on "El gran premio de la cocina", fell ill during a trip to Southern Argentina and had to be hospitalized. According to the Argentine News Agency, the 56-year-old chef is in the intensive care unit at the Ramón Carrillo Hospital in San Martín de los Andes. "They want to transfer him, but he is not improving," sources reported in the Puro Show TV program. During the ascent, the guide noticed that he was not feeling well and had to carry out a rescue operation. The medical report indicated that he had a cardiac arrhythmia—atrial fibrillation, characterized by an irregular and accelerated heart rate. It should be noted that in April 2025, Christian Petersen married Sofía Zelaschi.
