The journalist immediately changes the subject and asks Belen for clarification on a statement a few months ago when the Argentine declared: “I’m done with men, I’m becoming a lesbian”. Belen he candidly states that he has had “experiences” with other women and when asked about what his transgression isthe showgirl replies mysteriously: «I have one, but I can’t tell you…I have a nice dark side.”

The breakup (and the slaps) with Stefano De Martino
In the studio of Beasts, Belen also reveals the reasons for the end of her marriage with Stefano De Martino: «If a person does not go deep inside the other, and does not respect them, they destroy them. This can go on for years, then it becomes a toxic love.” To then conclude: «There is no suffering. I lost respectbut there is no anger.”
“His most unpleasant flaw?” continues Fagnani and Belen, still amused: «I’m aggressive, aggressive especially when I get “South American”. I beat all my boyfriends. De Martino is the one who took the most. I threw a cactus at one! «Did anyone get hurt?» tries to tone down Francesca but Belen insists, in a joking tone: «Some scratches. This is how things are resolved in Argentina!».

At first, because I was very feminist when I was young, I had a bit of difficulty because I felt like I was going to the enemy’s sideof having become an object.
