Antonio Banderas spoke about what it meant for him to see Melanie Griffith again at his daughter Stella's wedding on October 18 in Valladolid, Spain. This comes after their divorce in 2015. In an interview with 'Hola!' magazine, Banderas reflected on the importance of prioritizing Stella's well-being: "We always understood that, despite our differences, we had to put Stella first." The actor emphasized that his current relationship with Griffith is based on "unconditional respect" and described the reunion not as an exception, but as the continuation of a mature and adult dynamic. The choice of Valladolid as the wedding venue surprised many, considering that Stella resides in Los Angeles. However, for Antonio Banderas, this decision was a symbolic act: "It's a beautiful reaffirmation of her roots." The civil ceremony was held at the Abadia Retuerta LeDomaine, a 12th-century five-star hotel that, according to the actor, reflects his daughter's "maturity and elegance."

About Stella's Wedding

The ceremony took place on October 18th in Valladolid, Spain. The young woman married her longtime partner, Alex Gruszynski. Beyond the union of the young couple, the event stood out for symbolizing the culmination of a family that has managed to stay together despite the circumstances.

The event brought together figures close to the family, including all of Stella's siblings: Dakota Johnson, Jesse Johnson, and Alexander Bauer. Also in attendance were personalities such as Trudie Styler, Sting's wife, and Malia and Sasha Obama, daughters of former President Barack Obama, who are part of the bride's inner circle.

Antonio Banderas was full of praise for his daughter, highlighting her discretion despite growing up in the public eye. “From me, I think she has that Andalusian passion for life, that connection to the land, and that inclination towards creativity, even though she works behind the cameras. And from her mother, Melanie, she has that light,“That kindness and that ability to make the people around her feel special,” the proud father expressed. He also had words of approval for the groom, Alex Gruszynski, whom he has known since they were both teenagers. “He’s a great guy… a down-to-earth man, and that’s a very important anchor for Stella. He’s her safe harbor,” Banderas affirmed, fully supporting the union.
