The relationship between Alicia Villarreal and her daughter Melenie Carmona has once again become the focus of public discussion, after the 26-year-old confirmed that she is estranged from the singer and does not approve of her current relationship. The statements generated controversy on social media and revealed an apparent family crisis.

Alicia Villarreal breaks her silence and asks for respect for her private life

During a press conference, the 54-year-old singer was questioned about Melenie's comments. With composure, Villarreal explained that she prefers to keep these matters out of the spotlight. “All human beings have their family or personal moments… In this case, it’s a matter I need to keep private. My relationship as a mother should be like this with my children,” the singer said. She made it clear that she wouldn’t elaborate in front of the media and emphasized that she understands Melenie, assuring that she loves, supports, and respects her way of expressing herself. “It’s a matter I’d like to handle privately with them,” she specified. Villarreal also mentioned that Melenie has been living with her partner for a year, so she’s independent, and that there’s a possibility they’ll spend Christmas together, despite their recent differences.

Pati Chapoy lashes out at Melenie Carmona

The drama escalated when, during an episode of Ventaneando, Pati Chapoy harshly criticized Melenie for speaking about her mother in public. The host stated that Alicia “has supported her her entire life,” including her studies in the United States. Her comments quickly went viral. “She has given you a home, sustenance, and food your whole life… It’s very sad that you decided to speak the way you did,” she commented. Melenie Carmona responds to Paty Chapoy. Through Instagram, Melenie didn't remain silent and posted the clip from the program along with a message in which she asserts that Chapoy is misinformed. “My mother doesn't support me, and what studies in the USA is she talking about? She doesn't even know what the show is about, it's all just paid propaganda,” she explained.The young woman also denied that Alicia had covered school expenses abroad and took the opportunity to mock the situation by sharing Esau Ortiz's song "Triple Lavada," along with the phrase: "If you already know what I'm like, why do you invite me?"

A controversy that continues to develop

While Melenie continues to clarify her version of events and Alicia asks to handle everything privately, the issue continues to generate debate among fans, media, and social networks. For now, the singer maintains her position: she will resolve the situation directly with her children, away from the spotlight.
