Overview
- In early June 2026 Salazar appeared on several popular podcasts and discussed his life after a reported separation from Katia Condos while speaking openly about private matters.
- He said that after a January operation he contracted a hospital bacterium that led to acute renal failure, required intermediate care, and caused a 12‑kilogram weight loss, and that he is now recovering, exercising, and regaining weight.
- Verónica Linares showed private WhatsApp exchanges with Salazar on her show and said they message in the early morning hours, and Salazar also disclosed flattering messages he received from Laura Spoya and other models.
- Salazar made provocative remarks on one program saying “I am polygamous, I take them all,” and later clarified he meant no romantic claims but rather equal professional regard for his female co‑hosts.
- The interviews have shifted public attention from his illness to questions about privacy and professional boundaries at América Televisión while Salazar frames the appearances as part of his recovery and personal repositioning.
