Tula Rodríguez Sends Off 17-Year-Old Daughter as She Leaves Peru for University Abroad

The departure follows a recent jaw surgery that strained their tight mother–daughter bond.

Overview

  • Tula Rodríguez said in an Instagram video on Wednesday that her daughter Valentina will move overseas to pursue university studies without her.
  • She later posted a farewell clip showing a final lift and hug with Valentina before the teenager boarded her flight.
  • Valentina is 17 and Tula’s only child with the late TV executive Javier Carmona, whose long‑ago prediction that she would study abroad Tula recalled in the video.
  • Recent months were difficult after Valentina’s orthognathic surgery, a jaw operation used to correct facial asymmetry, which Tula said weighed on them both.
  • Tula has not disclosed the destination or school, but she said she trusts her daughter’s values and plans to cheer on her wins and setbacks from a distance.
