41-year-old former Argentine footballer Maxi Lopez appeared on a TV program in his country. Maxi Lopez made harsh statements against his former best friend Mauro Icardi and his ex-wife Wanda Nara, stating that he had not seen his children for years.
"I LOST A LOT OF YEARS WITH MY CHILDREN"
Speaking about his children Valentino, Constantino, and Benedicto, Maxi Lopez said, 'I think when Wanda and I look at each other, we understand each other. When you share so many situations with one person, sometimes words become unnecessary. From my perspective, what happened has happened, I want to focus on the present and what will happen in the future because time is passing, and then there are many things you can't experience. I feel like I've lost many years, but it wasn't by my choice. Thank God, everything is behind us today, we have fixed many things, we have healed many things. Now I can spend as much time as I want with the kids.'
"MAURO DESERVED A SLAP"
Speaking about the events that occurred after his former friend Mauro Icardi got together with his ex-wife Wanda Nara, Maxi Lopez stated, "I did not show violence towards Wanda Nara. I would never raise my hand to my children, a woman, or anyone. There is someone who deserves a slap, you know who it is, but I didn't even raise my hand to Icardi."
"WE NEEDED TO TALK TO MAURO"
In response to the question 'Are you talking about Mauro?', Maxi Lopez said, 'We needed to have a conversation, but I did nothing because the example I needed to leave for my children was more important than fighting with anyone. Why do I think he deserved it? Because he was calling me when we were separating and reaching out to my children, leaving them in unpleasant situations. I have experienced many events that I never told and preferred to leave behind.'
"ICARDI HAS USED VIOLENCE"
Speaking about the allegation that Icardi used violence against one of his children, Benedicto, the former footballer said, 'This is something Benedicto told at school, and I learned it just recently. Icardi has used violence. The state is doing its job, but I am also a father.'
"WANDA AND I HAD REACHED A LIMIT"
Speaking about Wanda Nara's relationship with Icardi during their marriage, Maxi Lopez commented, 'We are both guilty, and events happened on both sides. When a couple's love ends, love ends. When you try to continue for the children for a long time, it shouldn't become toxic and harm the children. We had reached a limit.'
'THEY DID NOT ALLOW ME TO SEE MY CHILDREN'
Finally, Maxi Lopez stated, 'I say it again. When they did not allow me to see my children, both Mauro and Wanda were there, and I was receiving calls and messages from both of them.'
