The Portuguese culture world mourns this Saturday the sudden death of actor Filipe Duarte, 46, known for his participation in popular series such as 'El Tiempo entre costuras'.
Duarte was found dead on Friday of a heart attack at his home in Cascais, on the outskirts of Lisbon, where he lived with his partner, the Spanish actress Nuria Mencía, and their youngest daughter.
In Spain he became known after embodying the role of the Portuguese businessman Manuel da Silva in the series 'El tiempo entre costuras' and for his interpretation of Vasco in 'Matadero'.
The President of Portugal, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, expressed his condolences to the family this Saturday and wrote on the Presidency website that "it is sad to lose him, so young, in the middle of a career and a life."
Rebelo de Sousa also highlighted his extensive career in the world of theater, film and television, where he was a regular in Portugal.
Born in Angola on June 5, 1973, Duarte moved to Lisbon to continue his training as an actor and in 2015 he won the Best Actor award at the Portuguese Golden Globe gala for his participation in the movie 'La vida invisible'.
His last job on the small screen had been the filming in Brazil of the soap opera 'Amor de madre'.
