Overview
- The television presenter underwent emergency surgery for gallstones after several days of worsening abdominal pain forced her to seek urgent care on Friday.
- Rodríguez has said the operation was successful and that she is stable and recuperating, and she has thanked followers for messages of support.
- She acknowledged that an intense work schedule made her downplay early symptoms, using the episode to urge others to prioritize health.
- Before being anesthetized she expressed fear over her daughter Valentina, who studies in the United States, and she called her after waking to reassure her that she was well.
- Peruvian outlets have widely covered the case and colleagues and fans have sent public well-wishes, and Rodríguez’s recovery means she will remain away from her regular TV duties until cleared by doctors.
