In 1977, Pepe Sancho occupied the pages of magazines for being one of the protagonists of the successful series Curro Jiménez. His role as The Student had brought him a popularity never before experienced and long gone were the times when, due to his financial difficulties, he admitted that he had left some restaurants without paying. In October of that same year, the actor made headlines by introducing a son to society whom no one knew and with whom he was photographed for the first time.

The boy was already four years old and was the result of an ephemeral but passionate relationship that was born out of Pepe Sancho's curiosity, which had led him to enter the set where Un, dos, tres was being recorded , located in Madrid's Estudios Roma , where he in turn was in the middle of filming another project. During a break from the famous contest, she struck up a conversation with Pilar Pardo, a hostess of the program who had worked as an actress in some Antonio Mercero series, and whose real dream was to become an announcer.

That same night they met for dinner, went out to dance and from then on they saw each other with the assiduity of a courtship. Months later, the relationship came to an end because the actor left for America with a theater company. It is in his absence when a child would be born in common that Pilar did not reveal him until they meet again after time, without any demands or reproach. From then on, the actor began to see his son, named Javier, in the seasons that work allowed him, recognizing him before a notary, with a family book in between and naming him his universal heir.

The life of the old couple passed with cordiality to the point that even Pilar, without ever having been a daughter-in-law, went to visit the actor's mother when she underwent surgery for a broken leg. They posed together and smiling and assured that the decisions that concerned Javier were made between the two of them.

But the apparent happiness ended almost at the same time that he began his love affair with María Jiménez, soon to become husband and wife. His son did not attend the wedding and had not been able to see him for months before the wedding. Tired of not being able to reach an agreement, the Valencian actor broke into the school where his son was studying and took him with him, without prior notice and against the mother, who immediately filed a complaint at a police station in Móstoles with two witnesses in the middle. Pilar, who at that time had already left the entertainment world, working at a bingo hall and putting aside her artistic surname, said she did not understand Pepe's sudden interest in having Javier by her side, even more so in these moments that she could form a new family.

Pepe in turn assured that he did not want his son to be raised with his maternal grandparents, as long as they continued to promote disunity, and he had no intention of returning him or having him go to school until a conventional agreement with Pilar was reached. Faced with the inevitable question of what was going to happen with his studies, when he was in the middle of his exams, the actor replied: "If an agreement is not reached, the child will attend his classes, but I will be at the door watching that nobody enters and take it away. " That impetuous act was labeled a kidnapping and finally Javier returned to his mother, who decided to cut off any ties.

In case the atmosphere was not already heated enough, in that same month of tension and uncertainty, Margarita Matallanes came into play , Pepe Sancho's former lover who claimed to have a 10-year-old girl as a result of her relationship with him in times past, when not yet he was considered a prestigious actor.

ANOTHER UNKNOWN DAUGHTER?

Margarita, nicknamed La Pegaso, was serving a sentence at the Yeserías jail at that time , due to a continuous crime of fraud consisting of robbing passengers who got into the car of a taxi driver with whom she was in league. She, who had tried without luck to be an actress, only wished that Pepe would assume the paternity of that girl named María José who resembled him so much. Everything was destined to cloud the non-existent honeymoon of the newlyweds María Jiménez and Pepe Sancho.

In 1995, 15 years later, a still little media Lydia Lozano obtained the only statements from Javier, who had recently reunited with his father, whom he had not seen since that stormy 1980. The young man did not deny holding a certain resentment, without understanding why that Pepe had not contacted years before when he had already reached the age of majority. He acknowledged that the meeting was cold and declared that he considered him a better actor than a father. The answer was not long in coming and the interpreter of Tremulous Meat decided to refresh the memory of his son, to whom he had given his surnames in the past, and clarified that his paternity had been legally withdrawn some time ago through a lawsuit, against his will and that he even still kept the notarial letters that forced him to stay away from him.

In 2012, the Court of First Instance number 52 of Madrid declared him the son of Pepe Sancho. Six months later, the actor passed away, leaving his two children only the strictly legitimate inheritance.
