Benjamin Vicuna revealed the dialogue he had with Garcia Moritan after his dedication to Pampita

Last Sunday, at the Martin Fierro Awards ceremony, when Benjamín Vicuña took the stage to receive his statuette for Best Leading Actor in Fiction for his work in The First of Us, there was nothing to suggest that his speech would spark controversy. It all started when the Chilean actor heard his name as the winner of the shortlist that he shared with Luciano Castro and Damián De Santo -also for The First of Us- and Luis Machín, for El Hincha-.

At that moment, when Santiago Del Moro announced that he had won, Vicuña first hugged his son Bautista, who was sitting next to him at the table during the award ceremony, and immediately got up to go to the stage. From the hands of the APTRA journalist Susana Roccasalvo, the actor obtained the statuette, was happy and prepared to give a short speech.

“How nice. Thank you very much for that beautiful hug. Thank you very much APTRA, thank you very much to those who voted, to those who did not vote, thank you to the public who are mainly the people we work for”. So far, the routine thanks, but then she uttered a few words that raised comments of all kinds. “Thank you very much to this country, regarding this important date, which received me, gave me a place, gave me my wonderful children”, thus he began to list while the camera focused on his eldest son that he had with Carolina Pampita Ardohain, who was waving to him and at the same time listening to Luciano Castro who was speaking in his ear.

Then he said the controversial phrase: “He gave me a love…”. Immediately, he fell silent. As if he had made a mistake. While he tried to take it with humor, he made a kind of mea culpa by turning his head in the air and, outlining a laugh, he continued: “He gave me so many things…”. At that moment, the cameras showed the rest of the room laughing and understanding what had happened. It is that the actor mentioned a single love when he had children with two women, and other Argentine couples.

The camera director immediately focused on Pampita, who was looking at him smiling, but Moritán was also seen at her side applauding but with a serious gesture. “I would have preferred it not to happen,” the husband of the actress and host of El Hotel de los Famosos later admitted, although he did not give much importance to the issue.

During this Friday, Benjamín Vicuña came out to clarify his statements again and revealed the dialogue he had with his ex-wife’s husband the day after the award ceremony. Interviewed by the LAM (America) notero, the Chilean acknowledged: “First I must admit that I am impressed by the commotion that was created by a whore that can have many interpretations. I want to say that at first one gets very nervous, because I had a speech prepared, I tried to dedicate it to the people who suffer from a disease and the people they accompany, and when I was talking about Argentina I actually talked about my children, I tried to talk about the mothers of my children but at one point I backed down and perhaps when I spoke of a love, it was love, the love that they have given me, the love of the public, the love that I knew, the love of my partners, the mothers of my children, but It was not a message or a hint or anything.

Later, Vicuña confessed that the next day, once she realized the issue that had broken out, she sent Roberto a message. “I didn’t want to disrespect him, we have the best, but something uncomfortable happened that wasn’t the intention. Because of the love and the bond we have, the next day when I realized what had been put together, unnecessary, of course to the first person I said to: ‘hey, do you want me to do something, to clarify, that says?’ and he told me: don’t calm down, everything is fine, but now I take advantage of this instance to resignify what I wanted to say, not to clarify, “he concluded.
