During the 200th episode special of La Mañana con Moria on Argentina's Channel 13, the legendary diva burst into tears while speaking on the phone with her daughter, Sofía Gala. Sofía plays her in a new Netflix biographical series, sparking a deep, touching reflection on motherhood and sacrifices.

An Encounter Filled with Emotion

Context for International Readers: Moria Casán is a legendary Argentine vedette, actress, and television host, often referred to as 'La One' (The One). Channel 13 (El Trece) is one of Argentina's most prominent television networks. In Latin culture, 'getting up to make a soup' is a symbolic metaphor for traditional, everyday maternal care.

On Thursday, August 14, 2026, during the special celebrating the 200th episode of La Mañana con Moria, the host experienced one of the most intimate and moving moments of her television career. She had a phone conversation with her daughter, Sofía Gala Castiglione, who currently plays her in a biographical miniseries streaming on Netflix.

What began as a promotional chat quickly turned into a deep, spontaneous dialogue about motherhood, shared memories, and past wounds. The diva, known for her strong character, showed a highly sensitive and vulnerable side.

I want to congratulate you, above all, for being such a good mom, Moria told her daughter with a broken voice.

The Confession That Moved Everyone

In a particularly revealing passage, Moria Casán publicly acknowledged the absences that marked Sofía's upbringing. I never got up to make you a soup, she confessed honestly, admitting that her intense artistic career prevented her from having certain everyday gestures with her daughter.

Far from idealizing her role as a mother, Moria reconstructed a family memory full of nuances. Sofía tried to lighten the moment: But you did other things, mommy. There are many ways to be a mom, she responded with affection and understanding.

Another highly personal moment occurred when Moria remembered deciding to stop filming her daughter with a video camera during her childhood. I was missing the girl, my little daughter. I threw it away, I think I lost it. I never picked up the camera again, she explained, revealing that she felt technology was keeping her from fully experiencing those moments.

A Mother's Pride

Emotion also made room for recognition. Moria highlighted with admiration the dedication Sofía shows in raising her children, Helena and Dante, and specially valued the professional decisions her daughter made to be present in their lives.

You do everything you can and much more. Since she was little, how you raised Helena, how you raise them... I'm going to cry, the host expressed as tears began to fall. Sofía, true to the humor she shares with her mother, tried to defuse the moment: If you want to cry, cry, mommy.

Moria also praised her daughter for prioritizing family over certain job opportunities: You don't accept theater gigs from Wednesday to Sunday... it's not because you don't want to work, but because you want to be with your family, she pointed out proudly.

The Only Hamburger of Her Life

The dialogue also had space for humor and nostalgia. Moria tried to remember any experience in the kitchen during Sofía's childhood and said: I think I made you a hamburger once. Her daughter's response was immediate and resounding: The best hamburger of my life, she said between laughs, sealing the moment with their characteristic complicity.

The Series That Brought Them Even Closer

This emotional conversation coincides with the premiere of the highly anticipated biographical miniseries about Moria Casán's life on Netflix, directed by Javier Van de Couter. The 8-episode production features three actresses playing the diva in different stages of her life: Sofía Gala Castiglione (early years), Griselda Siciliani (media era), and Cecilia Roth (maturity).

Sofía shared the emotional impact of playing her own mother: I cried a lot on many occasions, in many scenes, even in scenes where I didn't have to cry. I had to stop filming to go away, cry for a while, and come back, she confessed.

The actress also discussed the process of letting go of the story once it premiered: I feel that now that it's out, it no longer belongs only to us. There was something in the intimate and private sphere... The moment it premieres, it stops belonging to you. So on one hand it's a mourning, and on the other hand it's also a relief, she explained.

Addressing Difficult Topics: The miniseries not only reconstructs the life of one of Argentine entertainment's most emblematic figures but also addresses difficult moments, such as the gender violence she suffered with her first husband, Juan Carlos Bojanich, and the abuse by her grandfather. Moria was sued for speaking publicly about these experiences, but Justice ruled in her favor based on freedom of expression.

A Closing Full of Love

The dialogue culminated with displays of affection and the promise of a family reunion. Moria said goodbye to Sofía with words that synthesize the spirit of the conversation: To Sofía, Sofía Gala, Dante Della Paolera, Elena Tuñón. I love you, you are my family, you are my everything. So thank you very much.

Without a doubt, an episode that will remain in the show's history, demonstrating that behind the diva, there is a mother who knew how to acknowledge her mistakes and celebrate her daughter's successes.
