Overview
- In a Saturday radio appearance, Álvaro Rod denied being ungenerous and labeled Samantha Batallanos a liar, telling her to study acting.
- He displayed a transaction he said was for a shampoo, asserting it cost nearly 500 soles and that he bought it once but declined a second time as they were breaking up.
- Batallanos had told América Hoy that Rod refused to buy her shampoo, seldom invited her to dinner, and split travel costs for a Europe trip.
- The pair dated for five months and ended the relationship in July 2025, with Batallanos later calling the romance a mistake and downplaying its significance.
- There is no independent corroboration of either account, and the dispute continues through Peruvian entertainment outlets on television and radio.
