Aramís Fuster: squatter or victim? The psychic owes €15,000 and wants €30,000 to leave
One of Spain's best-known psychics is back in the news, but not for her predictions. Aramís Fuster told the cameras of the Spanish TV show 'Y Ahora Sonsoles' that she is living without electricity or water in a rented flat, accusing her landlord of harassment and threats. The property owner, however, tells a very different story: according to him, the tenant has run up a debt of around €15,000 and is demanding €30,000 to move out. "She is extorting us," he says.
The landlord hits back: "She is the one who owes"
The landlord, who has preferred to remain anonymous, says Fuster has not paid rent for months and that the amount owed is around €15,000. Instead of vacating the property, the psychic is reportedly asking for €30,000 as a condition for leaving. "Everything she says makes no sense," the man declared, visibly annoyed. The psychic's account — she describes herself as vulnerable and in a desperate situation — contrasts sharply with that of the owner, who calls it "extortion". The case, which mixes unpaid rent with the Spanish legal phenomenon of 'inquiokupación' (a tenant refusing to leave while owing rent), has peine the debate about the risks of renting to certain profiles.
A history of controversies and one question: what about the clairvoyance?
Aramís Fuster built a television career around the occult and, according to some reports, also around selling erotic content. Social media users were quick to joke: "If she's psychic, she should know which numbers to play to get out of ruin," "She didn't see this coming." Beyond the gossip, the case illustrates the difficulties small landlords face in enforcing their rights against tenants who stop paying. The €15,000 debt and the €30,000 demand to vacate place this dispute on the border between non-payment and alleged exploitation of the law. The legal soap opera is only just beginning. While the psychic claims her landlord is holding her "hostage" in her own home, the owner insists the reality is the opposite. The only certainty, for now, is that neither Aramís's clairvoyance nor the landlord's patience has untangled the mess.
