Verónica Ojeda Confronts Marisa Brel Live on LAM Over 2005 Maradona Pregnancy Claim

The live exchange revived a long-disputed 2005 account that remains uncorroborated beyond Brel’s cited witnesses.

Overview

  • On América TV’s LAM Tuesday night, Verónica Ojeda phoned in, called Marisa Brel “nefasta,” and accused her of lying about past statements.
  • The dispute centered on Brel’s claim that in 2005 Diego Maradona announced Ojeda’s pregnancy at a family gathering, a version she says she verified with people who were there.
  • Ojeda said she lost that pregnancy and later faced a high‑risk gestation with her son Dieguito Fernando, adding she has been unable to have more children.
  • She asked for respect because her son follows the coverage and also criticized former host Viviana Canosa, whom she described as “igual de nefasta.”
  • No independent resolution emerged during the segment, and Clarín reports Maradona later filed a multimillion lawsuit related to Brel’s 2005 scoop.
