Bertín Osborne is in the middle of a controversy after being accused of being "macho" for his recent statements about Gabriela Guillén's pregnancy and Chabeli Navarro's accusations of having "forced her to abort" one of her children. These controversies have generated a confrontation between the Popular Party and the PSOE in the La Rioja town of Alfaro, where the singer plans to perform at the patron saint festivities on August 15.
The socialist Raquel Pedraja has criticized the decision to hire Bertín Osborne for the event, arguing that the singer makes "sexist and homophobic" statements on a recurring basis, and that this should not be whitewashed. Before the PP obtained a majority in the last elections, they had the artist Antonio Carmona at their word.
In the midst of this controversy, Fabiola Martínez, ex-wife of Bertín Osborne and mother of his two children, has come out in defense of the singer. In the "Y ahora Sonsoles" program, Fabiola stated that the controversial statements should not affect Bertín's artistic career: "This has nothing to do with his voice or his ability as an artist to give a concert."

Fabiola also pointed out that it is common for political changes to change the contracts, but stressed that the Alfaro City Council still maintains the contract with Osborne for his performance at the patron saint festivities.
The case continues to generate controversy and debate in the town, while Fabiola Martínez is firm in her support for Bertín Osborne, separating her personal opinions from her quality as an artist.
