Echegui passed away after fighting a secret battle with cancer. According to the local media, few people from the film industry were aware of her diagnosis while her team ensured to keep her illness private, as reported by The Sun.<\/p>\n

The Spanish actress’ last on-screen appearance was in the Apple TV+ romantic comedy Love You To Death, filmed in August 2023 and released earlier this year. The series follows Ra\u00fal (Joan Amarg\u00f3s), who reconnects with his newly pregnant childhood friend Marta (Echegui) after being diagnosed with heart cancer.<\/p>\n

While promoting her film earlier this year, she spoke about how the illness impacts not only the individual but also the people around them, which was the central theme of the show.<\/p>\n

Echegui explained, \u201cThe series asks many questions about death and life, because it’s impossible to talk about death without talking about life and how you live it,\u201d as reported by the Daily Mail. She added, “I think the people who love you are the only ones who have the courage to say to you: ‘Have you considered whether this is right? Are you happy like this or not?”<\/p>\n
