Big Brother 2026: Andrea del Boca's comment that sparked criticism

Andrea del Boca found herself at the center of conversation after a comment made inside the house of Big Brother 2026. The actress spoke about a possible vertical telenovela and mentioned Manuel during a conversation that was interrupted by production.

The situation reignited rumors that had circulated weeks earlier and provoked a strong reaction among reality show fans. In response to the fallout, Santiago del Moro came out to clarify the situation and defended the transparency of the game.

What Andrea del Boca said in Big Brother 2026

In a video of just 20 seconds that began circulating on social media, Andrea del Boca is seen cooking while chatting with Manuel inside the house of Big Brother 2026.

During the conversation, the participant commented: “Get me a supporting role.” The actress replied: “No, I’m going to propose you for a vertical telenovela. I already have the couple and everything.”

Manuel continued the conversation and Andrea added: “To think that by coming in here...”. However, at that moment, production cut the transmission.

Why the comment generated controversy among reality show fans

The snippet raised questions because days earlier, journalist Alejandro Castelo had mentioned a version linked to a supposed production starring Manuel after the end of the program.

According to what he said on the air of Ya fue todo (Jotax), Andrea del Boca would have a vertical novel in the works and the participant would be considered for the project.

The dissemination of the new video led many users to revisit those speculations and question the situation on social media.

Santiago del Moro's response after the video went viral

In light of the repercussions the topic received, Santiago del Moro used his social media to respond to the criticisms and clarify his stance.

“What the participant does when she leaves the house has nothing to do with the program. What is impossible is for her to ‘arrange’ the future of a player to reach the final,” wrote the host.

He also added: “Let’s enjoy the game we love. And may the best win.”

How the rumors about Manuel and a vertical novel arose

At the beginning of June, Alejandro Castelo claimed to have received information about a vertical series that would be in the pre-production stage.

During his program, the journalist read a version indicating that Manuel would be the protagonist of the project and that he would reach the final of Big Brother 2026.

After the dissemination of those statements, Santiago del Moro publicly rejected the information and stated: “This is a lie in addition to being a delusion.”

On that occasion, he also maintained that he decided to respond because such versions could harm the participants who remained inside the house without the possibility of defending themselves.
