The announcement of Anabel Pantoja's wedding with Omar Sánchez in La Graciosa has generated all kinds of reactions, from those who think the news is positive because of the "publicity" it brings to the island, to those who have expressed their opposition to the wedding being held in La Graciosa, as is the case of ecologists.
Several national media outlets have echoed this in recent days, collecting the statements of Pedro Hernández, an environmental activist. "In spaces of this type, it cannot be an infinite party. Let's not destroy the goose that lays the golden eggs. We must prevent the natural and landscape values that justify this type of event from deteriorating more than they already have. We cannot ignore that," Hernández said on 'Sálvame', according to Semana magazine.
In response, the Telecinco program collaborator defended herself, stating that she has permission from the institutions to get married in La Graciosa. "I respect, and what's more, I share the ecological and sustainability issues," added Isabel Pantoja's niece, who also explained that although the ceremony is planned to take place on the beach, it will only last "20 minutes" and there will be "no rice, no petals, no glasses, no drinks, nothing."
"I think it's publicity and any kind of publicity for the island is positive," said a resident of the eighth island to La Voz, who pointed out that in La Graciosa the news of the wedding is experienced "with curiosity" but "with tranquility." "We are already used to weddings, both popular and not, being held in La Graciosa. They are already part of the rhythm of the island. In fact, there is even a meeting of wedding photographers in November," he pointed out.
However, Anabel Pantoja's wedding has already generated movement on the eighth island. And it is that, the television cameras of Telelecinco have been seen there in these days. In addition, according to this resident, "there are people who have been organizing for the wedding for some time, especially the issue of apartments."
The collaborator of 'Sálvame' is already known on the eighth island, as she has been on vacation several times. "And I think it's nice that she has chosen La Graciosa," said this neighbor, who nevertheless believes it is "important that the activities that are done in La Graciosa are done in a controlled way, because this is a very sensitive area." "But I imagine she will have the permits and I don't think Anabel Pantoja's wedding is going to destroy La Graciosa," he concluded.
