“Lola, in Tin & Tina, suffers an abortion, and today they are trying to change a series of rules regarding it, something that for me is crazy,” the artist said just before confessing her case: “I have suffered an induced abortion, because I got pregnant at the age of 19. I wanted to be able to choose about my body and decide about my future”, he has clarified forcefully.

But I, at 19 years old, was a girl who had no idea how to deal with that,” the young model acknowledged.
