Gustavo Yankelevich is going through one of the most painful moments of his life. Just a few weeks after the death of his granddaughter Mila, the renowned producer and businessman chose to speak publicly with an intimate and moving message dedicated to his son Tomás, who celebrated his birthday marked by an irreparable loss.
Through his social media accounts, Yankelevich shared an image of Tomás and accompanied it with words that reflect the deep love and admiration he feels for him in this time of mourning.
"Dear Tomasito, I thought my soul had no more capacity to love you", he began writing. Then, he left a phrase that strongly resonated with those who read it: "I admire your strength and I thank you for everything you do so we can feel better. I love you more every day".
El posteo que conmovió a todos
Far from hiding the pain, the producer focused on his son's fortitude and the role he plays within the family after the tragedy.
The message was interpreted as a public embrace, filled with love and recognition, which quickly caused a wave of supportive and comforting messages from colleagues, entertainment figures, and social media users.
The tragedy that struck the family
Mila Yankelevich was 7 years old and passed away last July in Miami, United States, after a boating accident that occurred during a summer camp.
The girl was participating in a sailing camp for children between 7 and 15 years old and had gone sailing on Monday morning when, around 11 a.m., the sailboat she was on was struck by a barge.
Mila era la nieta más pequeña del empresario
As a result of the force of the collision, the smaller vessel sank and its occupants were thrown into the water. Mila was one of the two fatalities of the accident. Another girl also lost her life and two more minors remained hospitalized in critical condition, according to local authorities.
The news caused deep shock both in Argentina and abroad, not only because of the victims' ages, but also because Mila was the granddaughter of Gustavo Yankelevich and Cris Morena, two central figures in the television industry.
