Telecinco summer 2026 rollout sees exits and disputes

Entities: De Viernes · Carmen Borrego · Terelu Campos · Telecinco · Sueños de libertad

Overview

Telecinco’s refreshed summer schedule remains in motion through late July. After the launch of the weekend show "El show de Paz" on 27 June and the weekday magazine "De lunes a viernes" on 7 July, the network now faces notable presenter turnover and on‑air tension.

María Casado announced her departure from the weekend news programme, citing the difficulty of balancing work between Málaga and Madrid and broader challenges for mothers in demanding media roles. Her exit marks the first high‑profile resignation since the summer overhaul began.

Veteran journalist Karmele Marchante’s return to Telecinco, first highlighted on 7 July, continues with her regular contributions to "De lunes a viernes", confirming the network’s strategy of blending established talent with younger collaborators.

The Friday prime‑time slot "¡De viernes!", scheduled for 24 July, saw a heated dispute between commentator Makoke and former presenter Terelu Campos over conflicting statements about the alleged sale of María Teresa Campos’s Málaga house. The episode also revisited Rocío Jurado’s memoir discussion and the ongoing Campos‑house controversy, underscoring the show’s mix of entertainment and celebrity‑driven current affairs.

Telecinco confirmed that its afternoon magazine "De Viernes" will air its final live edition on Friday, 31 July, featuring a face‑to‑face reunion between presenters Carmen Borrego and Terelu Campos. The reunion follows earlier on‑air tension about the rumored house sale. The programme will pause throughout August—a period of traditionally lower TV consumption—with no exact return date announced for September. Ratings pressure from the primetime hit "Tu cara me suena" prompted the network to adjust the summer schedule.

Overall, Telecinco’s summer‑time laboratory concept persists, mixing entertainment, light current‑affairs and live content across afternoon and prime‑time blocks, while navigating presenter exits, on‑air disagreements and the seasonal programming pause.
