The actress Ana Luisa Rubio, famous for her participation in Cuban television and radio during the 1970s and 1980s, was evicted this weekend from her home in Miami.
In a recent statement to the YouTube channel La Casa de Maka, Ana Luisa explained that one of the main reasons for her forced eviction was having pets, something that apparently was not allowed in the community where she lived.
Rubio lived with three cats, whom he described as his only family. After the eviction, he was not informed about where the animals were taken, and he fears they may have been euthanized. Now, he not only faces the distress of being homeless, but also the pain of not knowing what has happened to his pets.
“These days have been full of learning, of understanding that there are paths one must walk even if they don't want to,” she confessed tearfully in statements to the TikTok profile Conducta.
The actress acknowledged that she has always been an independent woman, reluctant to ask for help, but she stated that this situation has reached an extreme point. For that reason, just a few days ago, she made an urgent appeal to the Cuban community in exile for their support.
Several Cubans in the United States have requested assistance in trying to resolve the housing rent issue for Ana Luisa Rubio, who is an elderly woman with serious health problems and had a Section 8 public housing plan in the United States.
Maka recalled that the actress has had a history as an opponent both in Cuba and abroad, and that she lived humbly, peacefully in the United States, despite being unemployed due to her health condition.
Days before the eviction, Ana Luisa Rubio made a plea for help in a live broadcast on her Facebook profile, denouncing what she described as a fraudulent legal process.
He claimed to have been a victim of fraud, defamation, and abuse for over five years. According to his testimony, behind it all would be the real estate company responsible for his building and a judge who allegedly acts under economic and political interests.
"I have lost over 35 pounds, I am sick, I have suffered a cardiac syncope, they have done terrible things to me," she recounted in a video where she appeared clearly affected. "My cats are my only family and no one gives me answers," she lamented.
The actress, known for iconic roles such as the one she played in the popular series "Si no fuera por mamá," aired on channel 6 of Cuban television, is now facing one of the most difficult moments of her life.
Ana Luisa Rubio has insisted that her case is a manifestation of the abandonment and corruption affecting vulnerable people in Florida, and she has called for her story to reach as far as possible.
Her situation has moved many Cubans who remember her for her talent and her bravery. Today, the actress is fighting not only for a roof over her head but also to regain her dignity and to be reunited with the beings she loves most: her cats.
