From the criminal court to the hearts of TikTok: a script that not even Netflix would dare to write
Ah, love in the times of the algorithm. Marianne Gonzaga and Valentina Gilabert, our favorite protagonists of digital drama, have just given a twist to their personal soap opera that would leave the scriptwriters of La Rosa de Guadalupe out of work. After an episode worthy of true crime (14 stab wounds, gentlemen, how exaggerated the girl!), they now follow each other on TikTok as if nothing had happened. Intensive therapy? Secret pact? Or do they just love to be on everyone’s lips?
When the “like” is worth more than justice
Let’s remember: February gave us this iron festival in Álvaro Obregón, where Marianne showed that her idea of a “cordial relationship” was more Game of Thrones than Friends. Justice, in its infinite wisdom, dictated assisted release (translation: “don’t do it again, okay?”), but the real verdict was given by Valentina with a “I forgive her” that made the TikTok accounts cry. Second chance or second season to keep followers?
The most delightfully absurd thing: Before the creative homicide attempt, these three brave souls (yes, let’s include the baby’s dad, our third guest at this dysfunctional throuple) were sharing smiling selfies. Because nothing says “happy family” like a relationship that mixes parenthood, romance, and potential criminal charges. Will there be a reconciliation pack available for your followers?
Now, the media circus reaches new heights: users relive their old interactions as if they were clues to the Holy Grail, while those interested play the digital ping-pong of following and unfollowing each other. Will we be facing the first case of physical violence converted into engagement? Knife brands should sponsor them.
Final reflection: In a world where even knife attacks end up in viral content, perhaps we should ask ourselves if the real sharp object here are the algorithms that reward this type of spectacle. But hey, at least it gives us something to talk about while we scroll, right?
