Mexican actor, comedian, and TV host, Daniel Bisogno, passed away on Wednesday, February 19, at the age of 51. He was best known as the co-host of entertainment newsmagazine or TV show Ventaneando. The news of his demise was announced by Ventaneando via Instagram on Thursday.
“It is with deepest sadness that we regret to report news we never wanted to give: our beloved Daniel Bisogno has just passed away due to complications he suffered after the liver transplant he underwent last September,” the post read.
The post was accompanied by an image of the deceased, with the caption written in Spanish. The text in English reads, as translated via Google Translate:
“‘Window’ is mourning. Gone is one of our most outstanding members. Rest in peace. We will honor his memory always.”
Meanwhile his brother Alejandro Bisogno, told TV Azteca in the wake of his death:
“The problem is that a bacterium settled in the bile ducts. It’s a bacteria that has been mutating—each time antibiotics are administered, it becomes stronger.”
Earlier, Alejandro also told the same publication on February 12 that Daniel was in a “very delicate” condition.
Daniel Bisogno, who was fondly called "El Muñe," was previously married to Cristina Riva Palacio for over five years and Mariana Zavala for four years, as per The Pinnacle Gazette.
