About Bety Nelly Andrés de Levingston
Born 1926.
Bety Nelly Andrés Llana de Levingston (born 4 May 1926) is an Argentine socialite who briefly served as First Lady of Argentina between June 1970 and March 1971 as the wife of de facto President Roberto Levingston.
Biography Born in San Miguel, Buenos Aires, on 4 May 1926, Andrés Llana married Levingston in 1943.
Levingston, who served as de facto President of Argentina for less than a year in the early 1970s, was known for his protectionist policies and tough approach to militias and opponents of the military, especially Montoneros militants, including the usage of the death penalty.
Andrés Llana and Levingston had three children, a son named Roberto Antonio (1945–1967), a daughter named María Cristina and a son named Alberto Marcelo. Before assuming power, Andrés Llana and Levingston lived as military attachés in Washington, D.C.. Levingston returned to Argentina amid the political turmoil that arose after the kidnapping and assassination of former de facto president Pedro Eugenio Aramburu by Montoneros militants.
After leaving office in 1971, Andrés Llana went into nearly total obscurity, her name appearing only a handful of times and both she and her husband being considered "forgotten" or "unknown" in Argentine political history. Among those receiving VIP salaries was Nelly Andrés Llana who, in November 2024, received a net pension of more than 6 million pesos. In a January 2026 note by La Nación, the newspaper called privileged pensions a "shame of many", comparing those receiving them to the pensioners who have protested weekly against President Javier Milei austerity policies. As of November 2025, Andrés Llana de Levingston kept getting the salary, amounting to more than 12 million pesos.
