Story
At her 25th wedding anniversary party, Victoria Mendoza (Victoria Ruffo) finds out her husband Enrique Mendoza (Arturo Peniche) has a mistress, Tatiana López (Andrea Lopez). Suddenly Victoria's whole life crashes around her as she realizes her marriage is wrecked. As she tries to heal the pain of her husband’s adultery, she meets Jerónimo (Mauricio Ochmann) out of the blue. [3] Victoria falls for this younger man, giving her a second chance at the true love and passion missing in her loveless marriage.[4] Unfortunately, many of her loved ones oppose her relationship, including her daughters Paula (Geraldine Bazán) and Mariana (Laura Perico), her mother Mercedes (Margalida Castro) and her ex husband. They blame her for the breakup. On the other hand, her son Santiago (Ricardo Abarca) offers unconditional support. So Victoria faces a difficult decision. She must either fight to true love alive or surrender and it slip away.[5]
Production
Victoria is a remake of Señora Isabel, a 1993 Colombian soap. This story was also filmed for Mexican TV in 1997 as Mirada de mujer (The Gaze of a Woman).[6] Telemundo plans to air the serial from Monday to Friday over about 26 weeks. As with most of its other soap operas, the network will broadcast English subtitles as closed captions on CC3. This show's working titles were Tiempos de Victoria (Victoria's Times), Señora Isabel[7] and The Mauricio Ochmann Project [8] The show's premiere on Telemundo reached 782,000 core adult (ages 18-49) viewers, according to NTI, and over 1.5 million total viewers overall.[9]
