About Consuelo Ortiga y Rey


Consuelo Ortiga y Rey
Consuelo Ortiga y Rey, the prettier of Don Pablo Ortiga's daughters, fell in love with him. He dedicated to her A la Senorita C.O. y R., which became one of his best poems. Rizal and his compatriots frequented the Ortiga's residence in Madrid. He probably fell in love with her and Consuelo apparently asked him for romantic verses. He suddenly backed out before the relationship turned into a serious romance, because he wanted to remain loyal to Leonor Rivera and he did not want to destroy hid friendship with Eduardo de Lete who was madly in love with Consuelo.
