Fabiola Martínez separated from Bertín Osborne a little over four years ago. However, they still keep in touch because of the children they have, and they stay informed about what happens in each other's lives. Now she has discovered something unbelievable about him.
She must've been left stunned after hearing her ex-husband say some words that clash with the image she has always conveyed of him. The Venezuelan has always praised him as a father. But the artist has now said about himself: "I don't have a calling to be a father at this point."
An unexpected confession from Bertín Osborne that must've left Fabiola Martínez stunned
Fabiola Martínez and Bertín Osborne ended their relationship in 2021. It was a love story that lasted more than 14 years and from which two children were born, Kike and Carlos. Despite the separation, they have shown they keep a cordial relationship, marked by respect and a shared commitment to raising their children.
Since their breakup, the Venezuelan has been very careful when speaking publicly about her ex, as she has never said a bad word about him. In fact, on more than one occasion she has praised him as a father, highlighting his involvement and affection toward their little ones, especially the eldest, who was born with cerebral palsy.
However, in recent days, Fabiola must've had quite a surprise. Not a positive one. A statement from Bertín has come to light that has been unbelievable and has left more than one person speechless.
During a party organized by MultiÓpticas, which Osborne attended as a guest, the singer was approached by journalists. They asked him about the harsh words Gabriela Guillén, the mother of his youngest child, had for him. She publicly gave him a "zero as a father," hinting that he isn't getting involved as he should with the little one they have together.
At first, the artist appeared annoyed with the press. In the end, he agreed to respond. His words have sparked discussion.
He stated: "I don't know why she says it, frankly. Among other things, because I've never done anything I didn't tell her I was going to do. So, long before she had the child, I told her I don't have a calling to be a father at this point."
Bertín Osborne sparks controversy with his view on fatherhood
Bertín Osborne has surprised people with how blunt his statement was, but also because he has said he doesn't intend to take on certain aspects of parenting. He explained: "It's just not my time, it's not the time for that."
"I'm not going to start changing diapers at this point in my life just because it happened. That already happened to me and it's nothing new. I told her, long before the child was born."
In other words, he considers himself willing to provide financial support, even to care about the child's future, but not to play an active, everyday role as a father. He added: "I'll try to make sure things go well for him, that he goes to good schools."
"I'll do all that and I'll help him. So, well, if she thinks I'm a zero, then I'll be a zero."
These words have ignited controversy. Because it's not just about Gabriela Guillén, who has felt let down by the singer's attitude. It's also surprising that a man who has been a father at different stages of his life would express with such coldness his lack of involvement with a child who has just been born.
Even more so when he wanted to point out that not all his offspring would feel the same way. "She thinks I'm a zero as a father, but if you talk to my son Carlitos he'll tell you the opposite." It's an attempt to show that, according to him, his role as a father has been different depending on the circumstances.
Fabiola Martínez, who knows everything that happens in Bertín's life, could hardly have ignored these statements. They go somewhat against the image she has given of him as the father of her little ones.
The artist's statements have already caused a major social debate. Many people are wondering if it's valid for someone to consciously choose not to act as a father, even after bringing a new being into the world. Others criticize him harshly for considering that he has turned his back on a child simply because the child doesn't fit into his current stage of life.
