The spread of a false news story about Jorge Messi generated a strong reaction in recent hours and forced the family of the captain of the Argentine national team to issue a statement to clarify the situation.
In the midst of the controversy, Cecilia Cuccittini, mother of Lionel Messi and wife of Jorge, spoke for the first time about what happened and expressed the difficult moment they went through.
Cecilia's words were revealed through Ángel de Brito, who disclosed live the messages he exchanged with her while Jorge Messi remains hospitalized and is recovering well.
