The Cuban announcer Marisela Alfonso Madrigal left Cuba with her wife Adriana Moenck, apparently heading to Spain.

Marisela shared on her Facebook wall two photos at the José Martí International Airport, in one of which she poses smiling and mocking with the OFICODA resignation letter.

According to her, in Cuba she leaves her parents, who are waiting for their parole, her mother-in-law who lives in Bolondrón (a town in Matanzas), and her two little cats, "well taken care of" until she can take them with her.

"I leave Cuba and fly to my other homeland, my mother by genealogical right (...) after unenrolling from the MLA (my ration card) or rationing, and I laugh when I read in the OFICODA another one of its slogans: 'Our mission is to guarantee the basic food basket of our people contributing to its protection,'" he wrote.

Cuba hurts a lot. I hold onto the hope that they will leave and leave my Cuba free, or better yet, that they exile all the reds, may the PCC die, the Castro dynasty, and may a brave person emerge and end everything, everyone, including you, Canel.

Marisela Alfonso has Spanish citizenship. Last year, she spent a short period in the Canary Islands where her son lives, after nearly five years without seeing him. Many thought she would stay in Spain, but in less than three months, she returned to Cuba.

In January of this year, she got married in Havana to Adriana, after more than a decade together.

"We met on March 17th, 2007, and they schedule me for January 17th, 2024. A little more and the date coincides. Of course, I didn't want it to be on January 8th because that's the day the SOB Fidel Castro entered Havana," she said in the video of her wedding.

For years, the communicator had not been practicing her profession and even received threats from State Security for her online posts against the dictatorship.
