Bichir highlighted the “beautiful, angelic and talented” presence of Sherk, with whom he had worked on the film “Refúgio” (2016), the first film of the famous Mexican performer.

His relationship with the Canadian model and actress began years after Bichir’s divorce from Mexican singer Lisset Gutiérrez.

“My Stefanie will remain in our memories and will forever remain in our hearts,” underlined the actor, who asked for the family’s privacy in these days of mourning.

Accompanying his message in English and Spanish, the interpreter of Fidel Castro in the film “Che: The Argentinian” by Steven Soderbergh published a photograph of his wife.

In addition to working with her husband on “Refúgio” and the series “A Ponte”, Sherk starred in films such as “Idas e Comings of Love” (2010) and the reboot of “O Scream”, in which Bichir also participates and its debut is planned for 2020.
