Tim Curry's death at 80 brought to light the serious health problems that marked the final years of the British actor's life. Known for iconic roles such as Frank-N-Furter in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and Pennywise in "It", Curry died on Tuesday night at his residence in Los Angeles, although the specific cause of his death has not yet been made public. A stroke he suffered in 2012 drastically altered his life, affecting his ability to speak and move, but the actor continued working on theater and television projects in the following years.
In the scenes that air starting this Friday in the soap opera, the relationship between Bela and Vanessa becomes extremely conflictive. After having her name associated with an alleged kidnapping of minors and being publicly accused by Vanessa, Bela believes the heiress is seeking revenge and trying to tarnish her image. The obstetrician confronts Vanessa at the Romano house, where the encounter turns into a heated settling of scores. Vanessa hints that Bela never got over the end of her relationship with Gabriel and blames her for the loss of her first child. Bela fires back at the provocations, defending her professional conduct.
