A pancreatic cancer was the cause of her departure, a condition she had been battling for a year and a half in secret, as she preferred it that way, according to her close circle. After her death, there was some confusion regarding her age, with various media outlets reporting that the co-host of Despierta América was 51 years old when she died. However, one of her closest friends, Veronica Rasquin, refuted this claim during an interview on Shirley Varnagys radio show on June 10.
Patricia Fuenmayors Age
Rasquin clarified that her friend was only 46 years old at the time of her passing, and not 51 as some media outlets had reported. She would have turned 47 on July 18. Rasquin stated, I need to clarify something thats very important. Paty is going to fool a lot of people. Paty is not 51, she was 46. I dont know why they changed her age in many places. She added with a touch of humor, Its important to clarify that because theyre going to say she was a fifty-something and she wouldnt have wanted that.
Rasquin also mentioned that Fuenmayors close friends were aware of her condition, but respected her wishes to keep it private and go through it only with her loved ones. The situation became more critical in the final months of her life.,
