According to reports, Gaby and her sister Rosa left Venezuela shortly after massive protests engulfed the country earlier this year. The two were believed to have taken refuge in Argentina. Though, judging from Gaby’s Instagram account it doesn’t seem to have had much of an effect on her life. She hasn’t stopped posting pictures of her with her boyfriend, photos of her small dogs and several tributes to her deceased father.
As for Fidel, these are the first new photos we’ve seen of him since pics of him meeting with Argentina’s president Cristina Fernandez emerged earlier this year. The Associated Press later concluded that those photos had been digitally altered to remove the site of a hearing aid from Castro’s ear.
Noticeably, no hearing aid appears in these new photos.
