Despite rumors that she would return to Venezuela after the series, Spanic affirmed her commitment to working in Mexico if her producers approved of the character assigned to her.

In addition to her acting career, Spanic is involved in various projects. She debuted as an impresario for a women's institute that offers courses in makeup, hairstyling, and styling. She also expressed her interest in pursuing a singing career and has been taking vocal lessons for two months. However, she emphasized the importance of feeling confident and ready before venturing into singing professionally.

Spanic is married to Miguel de Leon, who also starred in "La Usurpadora" as the millionaire Douglas Maldonado. Their relationship began on the set of a television studio five years ago when Spanic was still engaged to another actor, Johnny Nessi. The couple faced scrutiny and criticism, but their love prevailed, and they got married two years later. Spanic described her husband as loving and caring, and their relationship has only grown stronger over time.

Despite her fame and success, Spanic remains grounded and focused on her work. She believes that as an actress, she should be able to portray any type of character assigned to her and give her all to the role. She values inner beauty over external appearances and encourages young people to love themselves and seek professional advice before embarking on extreme diets or beauty procedures.

As Spanic prepares for her next project, the telenovela "La Intrusa" with Televisa, she is excited about the opportunity to work with actor Arturo Peniche again. She will play the role of Virginia, a strong and determined woman. Spanic is grateful for the warm reception she has received in Mexico and is looking forward to continuing her life and career in the country. Despite the challenges and criticism that come with being in the public eye, Spanic remains focused on her craft and strives to deliver the best performances possible.
