Eugenia Tobal Clarifies MasterChef Exit, Downplays Clash With Germán Martitegui

She attributes her vulnerability to off-camera strain over her dog's illness.

Overview

  • In new interviews, Tobal says she did not resign from MasterChef Celebrity because her contract barred it.
  • She describes being overwhelmed by long shooting days and the stress of the format while caring for her ailing dog, Romeo.
  • Tobal characterizes Martitegui as distant and shy, and says the criticized comment about her plate was a minor remark magnified by her sensitivity.
  • She reports that they spoke privately after the episode, hugged, and that there is no ongoing conflict with the judge.
  • Looking ahead, Tobal says she would not participate in another reality show given the personal toll such formats can exact.
