This is what their social media thread says:
“Luis from Not anymore”:
As long as women in my situation do not dare to speak the truth, there will continue to be men like Luis de Llano.
From the age of 14 I wanted to believe that I was responsible for what happened. Today I understand that my only responsibility was to remain silent.
Two days ago, Luis once more made false statements regarding our relationship.
He abused me then and abuses me today by manipulating the truth. By wanting to minimize it to exempt her responsibility in the facts.
Today is international women’s day. Many people think that it is a day to congratulate us. It is not like this.
This day is to reflect and raise our voices once morest the systematic abuse in which we have been trapped in a thousand ways.
When the relationship started I was 14 and he was 39. I was in Vaselina with Timbiriche and I was clearly a girl. We were together almost 4 years.
My family found out and they went crazy and it was not for less. Luis was almost three times my age. He was a year older than my dad and he was the same age as my mom.
Fernando disadopted me. He literally disadopted me – typing this the corrector gives me other options since the word “disadopt” does not exist in the dictionary -. That was the first great loss of my life.
To try to separate us, my mother took me out of Timbiriche, sending me to study abroad. Leaving the group was the second loss.
For a long time I hid that we were still together. When I turned 17, I told my mom that she might keep lying to her, or she might forgive me. The poor thing had no choice but to open up, but she never felt comfortable and she was happy when, a short time later, she broke up with him.
It was very hard for me to leave him, he was a powerful man in the industry; my representative and my producer. I was very afraid that by separating my career would be hurt.
Why does he lie every time he talks regarding me? Because she knows perfectly well that what he did is a crime. Throughout our relationship I was a minor.
I write this crying. Crying for what happened, yes, but also crying for what is still happening.
What would my life have been like if Luis, instead of putting me in his bed, had done what he was supposed to do, which was to take care of me? I will never know.
What I do know is that the things you experience mark you forever.
“Life is lived forward but understood backwards”. Today I can see that this relationship contaminated my life in many ways.
That relationship ended 33 years ago, but until today, when I share it, the toxic thing that it brought with it ends.
I assume the part that should correspond to me, but I can no longer -nor should I- keep silent.
Shame and fear should never be greater than the truth. I assume the consequences that the truth can bring.
I apologize to my family and Alejandro, my partner, for putting them in such an uncomfortable situation once more.
Talking regarding this makes me feel enormous shame. For decades I wanted to believe that not mentioning it would make it go away. I was wrong.
If there is any kind of peace behind sharing this painful personal story, it is to empower other women to speak out if they live in an abusive situation.
I won’t talk any more regarding this topic. Why am I talking regarding this now? Because Luis de Ya No.
