Nuria & Felucho?

El Caribe newspaper today reports on the romance between much-loved TV investigative reporter Nuria Piera and Tourism Minister Felix (Felucho) Jimenez. Neither Nuria nor Felucho are talking. The Ministry of Tourism press officer, Anna Jimenez told the newspaper that Felucho has said he would not comment on the relationship. “It is a private affair and he has instructed us to keep it that way,” she said. An unnamed source told El Caribe reporter Severo Rivera that Nuria and Felucho celebrated their engagement in Jarabacoa in the presence of a small group of family and friends. This would be a second marriage for Nuria, who was previously married for about a year to TV and radio journalist, Pablo McKinney, with whom she has a young daughter. Jimenez is described as having had “several marriages”, including one to singer Maridalia Hernandez, and his most recent but brief marriage to Clarissa Brugal, heiress to the Brugal rum fortune.
