Through an interview offered to The Objective, Echenique's wife has opened up and spoken
openly
about the difficult situation she is going through due to
the mental health problems
she suffers from, mainly due to the
social phobia
that afflicts her. they diagnosed. Her husband has always acted as one of
her fundamental pillars
and considers that together they have formed the "perfect tandem" to be able to face everything.
They met in 2009
at the University of Zaragoza: "One day I was
leaving the laboratory
and I ran into him. He asked me where his office was, since I had never been to that part of the campus. And I told him: 'No.' I know where it is, but
I'll help you look for it.'
And that was the first closest contact," he remembers, adding that they later became friends on Facebook and started talking.

In 2012 they took the step of
formalizing their relationship
by sealing their love at the altar ("We didn't want to have a wedding like the ones done here... with large banquets and many guests. We wanted to do something different, so we eloped to Tenerife and We got married there. With two witnesses, a friend of his and a friend of mine," he says) and, since then, they have not separated. Although they have been together for more than a decade, the couple
does not have children together,
something that Nelo spoke about for the first time in the aforementioned interview:
"We have tried, but it has not happened,"
he confessed. Following his own words, at some point they have considered
adopting
, but it is something that he does not know how to face, given his state of mental health.
Regarding Echenique's physical condition, María Nelo has stated that it is something that never mattered to her:
"I fell in love and that's it,"
she says, suggesting that, although she was aware of the
special care
that Pablo needed in his daily life, , she never cared, in fact, it was she herself who
provided him with help
for many years.

However, although she has never cared about the politician's disability, the truth is that she has revealed that
she had to listen to many comments
about it from those around her: "Many people were very prejudiced. Many people did not understand why we were together and
they talked behind each other's backs,"
he said, while pointing out that, from his family, he never received any impediment.
