NORMA DUVAL (‘MASTERCHEF CELEBRITY 7’): HER AGE, HER CURRENT PARTNER AND HER REAL NAME
Purification Martín Aguilera, his real name, was born in 1956 in the city of Barcelona. In more than one interview, she has acknowledged that she was a rebellious girl and that she did not finish high school and left school after failing three subjects.
Although she had already announced that she wanted to be an artist, her father tried to avoid it anyway, according to her because he was a military man by profession. Despite everything, she agreed to study hairdressing for a while, but she soon found an ally in her mother to take singing and dancing classes in secret.
In 1973 her life changed completely, since she became Miss Madrid. The filmmaker Valerio Lazarov, seeing her in her beauty contest, did not hesitate to offer her a job as a dancer in the Ladies and Gentlemen program. In 1979 she made her debut as a vedette, replacing Bárbara Rey in the play ‘Una noche bárbara’.
In 1980 Norma Duval became the second Spaniard to get a job at the legendary Folies Bergère cabaret in Paris. This made her a star, so when she returned to Spain she began to perform her own shows, also traveling to Mexico or Italy.
Outside the theaters, the artist has also had appearances in the cinema in films of the so-called ‘Cinema del destape’: ‘Lend me your wife’, ‘Three women of today’ and ‘The judge’s wife’.
On television, she has become a regular face, both as a presenter and as an interviewee or collaborator. Spectators have been able to see her in spaces such as ‘Superstar’, ‘With you’, ‘Los domingos por Norma’, ‘Espejo secreto’, ‘Las pícaras’ and the most recent ‘Look who dances!’ and ‘Mask Singer’.
YOUR CURRENT PARTNER AND CHILDREN
Her first known partner was the millionaire Jorge García Lago, to whom she became engaged. She moved into her house because she suffered from a serious illness, but her family even sued her for trespassing. They eventually broke off the engagement and he passed away a few months later.
Marc Ostarcevic came into her life in 1983 and with him she had three children: Marc Iván (1984), Yelko (1986) and Christian (1994). Despite being a family, the couple did not marry until the year 1992.
After divorcing the Croatian athlete, she began a relationship with the film producer José Frade, from whom she became pregnant and lost the baby. After comings and goings, they married in 2004, officially divorcing in 2019, although they broke up years before.
In 2010, when her marriage to Frade was already falling apart, Norma Duval found love again with a handsome German real estate agent named Matthias Kühn. They married in a civil ceremony in 2015, although their relationship has also been a story of comings and goings. In the summer of 2022 they made their umpteenth reconciliation official.
