Astrid Bartos Sepúlveda is a character in Welcome To Eden. She is the founder of the Eden Foundation and the wife of Erick. She is portrayed by Amaia Salamanca.

Biography[]

Astrid is the founder of the Eden Foundation. Her father, Dr. Florián Bartos, dedicated his whole life to the study of climate change. According to Erick, everything he predicted ended up coming true and industrialised nations tried to silence him. In the end, he was murdered in a car accident. Astrid wanted to follow her father's legacy and is a fan of the natural environment. She would prefer to visit the Arctic over Paris.

Astrid met Erick for the first time at a party. They attended university together. Astrid always had great grades. They found a new home for their new family, but were threatened by big economic powers.[1]

Throughout Welcome To Eden[]

Astrid invited five influencers to an exclusive party on a secret island run by the foundation to promote their new energy drink Blue Eden. She invited Zoa, Ibón, Charly, África and Aldo.

During the first party, she and her husband Erick talked about the 5 people that they had chosen. Astrid placed her bet on Ibón because he is obedient but still sensitive.

The morning after the party, she greeted the five influencers.[2]

At the evaluation, Zoa talked to Astrid about her concern for her friend Judith and her mother's heroin addiction. Astrid had Zoa repeat "My mother doesn't love me. My mother hates me." loudly, and then hugged her.[3]

During Bel's evaluation, Bel talked about the managers at her previous job not doing anything about emitting carbon dioxide way above the limit, and firing her after they found her tweets. Astrid used this as a reminder for everyone that the people out there do not care and will simply treat them as faceless and voiceless pawns. They will die rich, while the young will inherit a planet destroyed by their greed. Then, Erick and Astrid announced that there would be a farewell party for the 5 new people who were going to leave the next day.

During the farewell party, Astrid chatted with África. She told África that her followers don't actually care for her, and that she is protecting the people of Eden from the real world. Astrid invited África to her place and introduced her to Erick.[4]

Seeing how close África and her husband Erick had become, Astrid was uncomfortable and asked Erick to treat her like everyone else. Erick requested for África to sleep in Module 1 during the storm like the others.[5]

During the party, Erick gave a speech about his relationship with Astrid and about Eden. Suddenly, the screen changed and "Muerte a Astrid", meaning "Death to Astrid" was shown. Astrid was angry and called for a meeting with Erick, Orson, Mayka, Brenda, Ulises and Saúl. Mayka couldn't trace the real culprit of the hack, but Astrid decided that someone needed to pay nevertheless to send a message to the whole community that there are consequences for breaking the rules. Eloy and Zoa were suggested as scapegoats, but the majority voted to save them. They decided to make Claudia the scapegoat instead.[1]

One night, the four new members, Zoa, África, Charly and Ibón, went through an initiation process to signify them joining Eden. They needed to walk across burning coal and get a necklace. While África walked over the coals, her pants caught fire. She managed to reach the end and collapsed. Erick immediately rushed over to help her put out the fire using his jacket, much to Astrid's dismay, as she was already concerned about his close they had become. The four then got a star tattooed onto their wrists to show that they were in level 1. Eva and Alma were promoted to level 2, and Ulises was promoted to level 3.

The next morning, Nico asked Astrid why he was not promoted. Astrid explained that he did not do a good job bringing Zoa in. She also told him that he was taken off Zoa and that Bel would watch over her instead.[6]
