Not to do it, that’s a crime. How could I be there for my son if someone told me these things? Every other day for two months. But this is the last thing this person did,” he said, without mentioning the former president.

“How could someone who was so unpunished do such a thing to you? Then I didn’t even answer him. I grabbed it, put on my dressing gown and slippers and walked towards the guest house. Then I made a decision. It was around July (2023). When they started saying we were separating, it was true. They just didn’t want to say it. So, obviously, if I left Olivos, it would be a scandal. So, still wanting to help him, I went to stay at the guest house and every time he came he would open the door. But I didn’t knock to get in. He just opened the door like that, bang,” he said.

“I lived there last time with my son. Then they started telling me a different story every week until August: ‘You are leaving tomorrow’ and so on. But they didn’t let me go until December 2,” he added.
