This was Toñi Moreno's controversial comment on Canal Sur

The controversy broke out this Wednesday afternoon when Toñi Moreno interviewed Bella on Canal Sur, an American TikToker who lives in Seville and connected with her program to talk about the advantages of living in the south of Spain: “Have you had a filter? Tell me the truth, you are much thinner”, the presenter told him during the connection. And she added: “Or it's the lentils with chorizo, which you've had many dishes in.”.

Bella reacted during the live with a smile, but later burst into tears on her networks, regretting what happened to a person she “admired.” “Opinioning about someone else's body is not funny at all. We don't know what other people are going through. I have struggled with depression and eating disorders my entire life and these comments hurt a lot.“, he commented. The young woman also pointed out that “Talking about another person's physique says more about you than it does about them.” “I hope the day comes when we can think before we speak and not think so much about the superficial,” he added.
