In a dramatic twist worthy of a telenovela, President Javier Milei of Argentina has announced his split from actress and comedian Fatima Flores. The break-up, disclosed via social media, has sent ripples through the nation, with citizens speculating if this was truly about clashing schedules or a subplot in the political theater.
Milei, known for his passionate speeches, declared the separation mutual, citing the classic ‘it’s not you, it’s my presidential duties’ line. Meanwhile, Flores, with offers flooding in from Europe and the USA, has been too busy to comment, possibly rehearsing her next role as the ‘ex-first girlfriend’.
The pair have vowed to remain friends, with Milei stating, “Our love and respect are as enduring as my economic policies.” However, political analysts suspect this is just another strategic move in Milei’s playbook, possibly to distract from more pressing national issues like inflation or his next chess move in international diplomacy.
The romance, which blossomed in the summer of 2023 during Milei’s campaign trail, has been the subject of much public fascination. Now, as the love story concludes, Argentinians are left wondering whether their president’s next relationship will be with the people, or if he’ll swipe right on another high-profile match.
