In the midst of his hospitalization at the Italian Hospital, Jorge Lanata is embroiled in a scandal over an alleged financial embezzlement by his secretary, who spent $51 million from the journalist's card in the last 20 days. Lanata's wife, Elba Marcovecchio, has already initiated legal requests for an audit in this regard.
According to close sources, the extravagant spending was not made by "Margarita," but by a trusted employee of Lanata who failed to report to the family in the last two months. Despite the situation, it has been reported that Lanata is awake and attempting to communicate, although he still has the tracheotomy tube.
The person responsible for the communicator's finances for years is the alleged author of the expenses, which has caused great shock in Lanata's circle. Despite his condition, the journalist has managed to reach a stage where he can remain seated for several hours, showing signs of improvement in his health.
