wife of singer Chucho Avellanet at the time). Clarissa had a domineering mother, Altagracia (played by Ana Luisa Agrelot, José Miguel Agrelot's sister, and a comedic actress in her own right), who considered that her daughter was getting too old to get married. However, Altagracia also felt Juan Bautista was too old for her. In a special one-hour episode, Juan Bautista married Clarissa at the family's house in Parque Florido.
