Mirtha Legrand Announces Jimena Monteverde's Departure From La Noche de Mirtha

The host said on air that the longtime cook will step away to focus on La cocina rebelde.

Overview

  • During Saturday's broadcast, Legrand told viewers Monteverde "will not be here anymore" and said she will miss her very much.
  • Legrand expressed happiness for Monteverde's new project but remarked that she would have liked her to continue on the program.
  • Monteverde recently launched La cocina rebelde on eltrece, a weekday culinary magazine airing at 2:45 p.m. with contributors including Coco Carreño, Mariana Corbetta, Paco Almeida, Natu Lalo, Rodrigo Cascón, and Romina Pereiro.
