Univision Anchor Fernando Del Rincon Allegedly Fired For Allegedly Beating His Wife Univision Reporter Carmen Dominicci
19 December 2008, 10:45 AM. By Cindy Casares
Univision anchor Fernando Del Rincon is the latest person to be fired in a domestic violence/HR clusterfuck going on at Univision. It seems the host of Primer Impacto did not show up to work yesterday and sources say it’s because he’s been fired after viewers reacted negatively to Univision firing his now ex-wife Carmen Dominicci from the network when she told them about about alleged domestic abuse from Del Rincon. Dominicci, who also hosted Primer Impacto, did an interview about the night in question–at a hotel in the Dominican Republic–with rival network Telemundo who seem to be the only ones having a good year in Spanish-language television right about now. The video is after the jump.
In the interview, Dominicci, who divorced Rincon officially last month, describes the night where Rincon grabbed her by the neck and almost choked her. She then says that he announced to her, “Are you happy? You’ve turned me into an Osvaldo Rios,” referring to her ex-husband, Puerto Rican telenovela star Osvaldo Rios who she also accused of domestic violence fifteen years ago.
Making this whole thing even more interesting is the Carmen Dominicci knock off Letty Peña who came forward in September telling Primera Hora that she was having an affair with Del Rincon during the time in question. Happy Holidays!

I’ve totally been following this. I hope he gets fired.
The best part was when she said something like “i don’t have a pinata complex” since this would be the third time she gets beat. or by the third husband?
Carmen…do you have a magnet for abusive husbands? Or is there something about you that just screams DALE DURO A LA PIñATA!
i can believe you guys…
there is nothing women do that justifies violence NOTHING… would you like happening to your mom, sister??
All she did was speak out! and im glad she did…
Women dont attact abusive men…..
Men are just accustumed to being animals and some women WONT put up with it.
THE NEWS ARE SUPPOSE TO BE DONE BY LISENING ALL SIDES OF THE STORY, WHETHER THERE IS TWO OR MORE PEOPLE INVOLVED.IN THIS CASE I HAD SEEN DOMINICCI ‘S SIDE OF THE STORY, BUT NOT FERNANDO’S. I THINK PEOPLE RUSH TO JUGMENT AND FOUND THE GUY GUILTY ON ALL CHARGES.
Don’t get me wrong please, I’m not generalizing that all women attract abusive men or that women must be doing something to attract the abuse. That is ridiculous. Also, not all men are abusive.
Now that I’ve stated the obvious….
What I am saying is that some people may have some issues, perhaps issues they haven’t dealt with, which drive them to the tendency of being attracted to people who are indeed abusive. Until they get help from a professional, they will keep getting into the same situation.
I was saying it in a jokingly manner before, but I see that I needed to explain in details what I meant lol.
Well thank god he did get FIRED….
there is justice… he thought he would get away w/such behaviour but invision realized money was more importand so they need to keep ther viewers happy
Edwin..
what do u need to hear????
do you honestly think something she did would justify abuse??
U need help
“Telemundo who seem to be the only ones having a good year in Spanish-language television right about now”
i think not. please get your facts straight, maybe you work for them?
regardless of the situation, Univision is the number one station among spanish viewers.
i never liked univision, i always though they sucked ass and telemundo had the BRAZILIAN SOAPS! hehe unlike the retarded mexican soaps with the poor skank always ends up getting saved by the old rich douche…
just a lil side salad D:
anyway i can’t believe anyone would lay a hand on this lady, from the 1st time i saw her i was like wow, she’s beauuuutiful, shame on your soon to be irrelevant dude
Que bueno que le partio su madre carmen. I don’t like telemundo
You’re exactly right Nerd Fairy, but in this case, it’s not only that Carmen has issues, she knows the best way to break someone down is by claiming victim.
I believed it happened once, and she destroyed her first husband which may have been rightful, and she knew if she blew this story up enough with Fernando, it would destroy…what is it…her 3rd husband already? Issues!
Not saying much about her 3rd husband, Fernando… I think he’s on a roll too with the wives club.
is really hard to believed this !
two hard working prossesional people lose thier job just like that. that ’s how the news is after all.
you admired someone and all sundally you get disanpointed by this news. hey, i do understand this ., but if you know someone has a problem and you care about the person so much ,both together should find help and not let one or another fail.
but is there no love i atolly understand one is goin to walk away without looking back.
i wish both then the best
I dont know was wrong with this bitch.. i think she like to play the Role as a Pinata or Something…!!! She Always messing around with the Violent People.. I think she Need to Grow up and quit play those little games that she been playing latetly with those men…
I think Fernando’s pretty much finished; he’s also an alcoholic and needs treatment.
Many years will have to transpire before he can return to the tube.
The Latin culture is much more different then the US culture. Americans forgive and forget, but Latins tend to be more shameful and less forgiving.
Too bad for Fernando.
Well, if this isn’t the first time this happens to her, then it’s obviously her fault. First time, shame on him, second time shame on her. She looks like a person who has a strong character and a bad attitude, so I wouldn’t be surprised if she provoked him. I never really liked her on Primer Impacto, and I don’t like her even more now. I’m glad she got fired first as she deserved it. If he really was violent, where is the proof? Where are the pictures of bruises? Questionable…
i think that without any bruises on her body is very hard to believe that she got beat up…but then again that poor fool should have known better than to a marry someone like her with such history as being a pinata and asking for divorces left and right!!!!!!
Hi i jus wanted to say i give porras to fernando cuz dominicci needs to stop being a drama queen we have enough of thoughs in the world already!!!
Hello,
Before your judge Fernando, you should know the whole story.
Men are not always the perpetrators of domestic violence.
Many times women falsely accuse their exes out of revenge. Other times women falsely accuse their exes to take full custody of their children.
I am against domestic violence, but it makes me sick to see how this society has created a stereotype of “male abusers.”
It is about time men receive the recognition they deserve for being husbands and fathers.
Thank you!

Both get involve at the same amnner. Probably they hit each other, screamed, grabbed themselves, thats the nature of humans. Both were drinking so alcohol probably was a big factor. The worst thing is the way they ended up loosing their jobs. Who nows if in couple of months they are back together. Marriage issues, only they knows the real story. I hope both get together to talk about what happened and together tlak to their fans for their best.
I believe more in Fernando words then hers she might be doing this because their marriage lost respect for each other and i am very dispointment on Univison for letting him go that i will not watch no programs of them
I think that Carmen is at fault,she’s been married two times and both marriages failed because the same reasons, it makes me think that she is the one that drives these men crazy. She needs to get professional help!
No me gusta telemundo por que siempre hacen los que le dan la gana con los programas, no tienen respeto con su publico. La novelas por ejemplo: Yo veo Dona Barbara y Sin Senos no Hay Paraiso pero cuando se acaben no vere mas novelas de Telemundo. El unico programa que me gusta es telemundo con Maria Celeste. Ella si vale la pena. Telemundo esta desorganizado.
Even if fernando or carmer or who ever else goes to telemundo that doenst make me watch them on telemundo. IM SORRY BUT DONT LIKE ANY TELEMUNDO’S PROGRAMS.

I totally igree with you Evelyn.
Both were great as professionals but a shame as lovers.
She’s so beautiful and for sure doesn’t deserve any kind of violence.
He was so lucky that she accepted be his wife, but if less than a year she asks for a divorce that means nothing but loveless careless whispers for her.
Women never lost a man.
A Man is always guilty to loose a Woman.
all i got to say is that i support Fernando del rincon 100% carino you got my support 100% to me you will always be #1 and starting tomorrow monday i will be watching al rojo vivo i hope that you do get the job with them.
te amo carino
Im totally against violence but we all have met a person or two who just wont shut up and get out of your face and get psyco to the point that you have to push them or slap them to get them off you, then turn around and cry that they got abused when they were the ones who asked for it! Come on if you keep getting abused then you really got to analize your person and stop doing what you are doing to keep getting “vicitimized” like stop getting psyco on them walk away and leave before you get beat again!
