Fabiola Yañez, former First Lady of Argentina during Alberto Fernández's presidency, has taken a significant step in her professional life by returning to her career as a journalist. Yañez met Fernández in 2013 and began their relationship in 2014. After six years away from the private sector, she decided to return to journalism, an activity she engaged in before her relationship with the president.
Yañez's choice to work for OK Diario, a media outlet from Spain, is curious as this outlet is quite critical of the Spanish government president Pedro Sánchez, who is socialist. Her first coverage for this outlet took place at the National Museum of Decorative Arts in Madrid.
During her time as first lady, in 2022, her son Francisco Fernández Yañez was born. However, in 2024, Fabiola Yañez reported Fernández for gender violence after finding messages detailing episodes of aggression at the Quinta de Olivos. The court imposed a restraining order on the former president and prohibited him from leaving the country.
This professional change for Fabiola Yañez marks a return to her journalistic vocation after a long period dedicated to her duties as first lady. The news of her joining OK Diario was initially published in Mendoza Today.
