Listen to the story

Spanish television presenter Mariló Montero has confirmed happy family news. Her son, Alberto Herrera, and his partner, Blanca Llandres, are expecting their second child together. The couple already have one child from their relationship.

Montero shared the news herself, explaining that prudence was needed because the pregnancy is in a very early stage. She did not give many details, out of respect for the couple's privacy at this delicate moment.

According to Montero, her son Alberto is currently living through some very beautiful moments in his life. She expressed clear joy about becoming a grandmother again, describing this as a double happiness for her family.

This second pregnancy comes around eight months after a previous family event, though the summary does not give further details about what that event was. Montero is well known in Spain for her work on television, and her family life often attracts media attention.

The couple have not yet made extensive public statements about the pregnancy themselves. Most of the information so far has come from Montero, who confirmed the news with visible excitement. Fans and followers have reacted warmly to the announcement, sending congratulations to the family.

As the pregnancy is still at an early stage, it is likely that more details, such as the expected birth date, will be shared later. For now, the family has asked for understanding and patience from the public and media.
