“It killed me. You type Maru Botana and the first thing you see is that she was involved in an electrical issue, and the criticisms from everyone,” she expressed while recalling the repercussions.
The chef recalled the difficult time she went through in 2019 due to a problem with a franchise of her brand linked to the producer
“It killed me. You type Maru Botana and the first thing you see is that she was involved in an electrical issue, and the criticisms from everyone,” she expressed while recalling the repercussions.
Despite the impact she claims to have suffered, Botana shared that at that moment she chose not to escalate the dispute publicly. Her decision, as she explained, was related to Tini, who already had significant media exposure due to her artistic career.
The chef sought to differentiate the conflict she had with Alejandro Stoessel from her daughter's figure and maintained that she preferred to protect the artist rather than come out and defend herself publicly.
Her statements took on a new dimension amid the current reports about Tini's relationship with her parents and the management of various aspects of her career and assets.
Amid the reports about the family conflict between Tini Stoessel and her parents, Maru Botana surprised everyone by recalling a situation she experienced years ago with Alejandro Stoessel. The chef stated that this episode had consequences for her public image and revealed that, despite the difficult moment, she chose to remain silent for one reason: she did not want the controversy to end up affecting the singer.
The conflict dates back to 2019 and was related to a franchise of Botana's culinary brand located in Las Lomas de San Isidro. The establishment became the center of controversy after an irregular electrical connection was detected. As the chef recalled, her name was immediately associated with the incident, and she received numerous criticisms.
Now, several years later, she decided to explain why she avoided publicly delving into what happened at that time. “I had a really hard time, but I held back to avoid complicating Tini,” she stated in an interview with TN Show.
The episode had a strong impact on the new member of the MasterChef Celebrity jury. As she explained, one of the issues that affected her the most was that her name was linked in search engines and social media to a situation involving a franchise.
