Kate Del Castillo is sitting down for an exclusive interview with Diane Sawyer on ABC's "20/20" program this week. This will be the first time the "La Reina Del Sur" star will be on-camera talking about the "El Chapo" scandal. In the preview for the sit down, the television journalist asks the Mexican actress if the kingpin was in love with her. We are teased that Del Castillo will reveal secrets as to what happened in that meeting that Sean Penn was also a part of. Kate has already granted interviews to print media like The New Yorker and wrote a letter that was published by Proceso where she details the encounter. It will be completely different actually seeing the telenovela star talking one-on-one with Sawyer. "20/20" airs the special this Friday, March 18 at 10pm ET/PT with viewers able to stream the interview online using the WatchABC app. Watch a preview with Kate del Castillo below and tell us what you think!
