On August 5th, the first anniversary of the death of Diego Bertie, a well-known Peruvian actor and singer, will be commemorated. That's why the controversial writer Jaime Bayly talked about the topic in front of the cameras of Magaly Medina.

The television presenter went to a well-known bookstore in Miraflores to present his new book "The Geniuses." In that place, he couldn't avoid being approached by the media, including a reporter from the program "Magaly TV: La Firme". Immediately, he was asked about Bertie's death and he couldn't help but get emotional.
"If I had known that he was contemplating suicide, I would have tried to see him and help him," declared Bayly during the presentation of his work. "It's a subject that hurts me a lot. It still hurts me a lot," he added. These statements could be heard in the preview of the report that will be broadcast tonight.
Who was Diego Bertie?
Born on November 2, 1967, Diego Bertie had his first role playing 'Ignacio' in "Rosa de América" (1988). However, the charismatic artist rose to stardom with the character 'Pedro' in "Natacha" (1990 - 1991). Among his recent roles were 'Sergio Estrada' in "Al fondo hay sitio" and "Luis Felipe Sandoval" in "De vuelta al barrio."
In 2022, shortly before the fateful August 5th, the remembered Bertie confessed in Medina's show that he had a relationship with Jaime Bayly. In fact, he stated that he was hurt by the fact that the writer also revealed that intimacy in a book; that's why their friendship ended.
