Morena Beltrán Eliminated From MasterChef Celebrity After Mondongo Challenge

Judges said her mondongo milanesa failed on texture, renewing attention to cast WhatsApp tensions and a pointed Wanda Nara reference to the 2021 'Wandagate'.

Overview

  • Morena Beltrán was voted out by the MasterChef jury after Monday's elimination gala, where judges singled out the texture of her mondongo milanesa as the decisive flaw.
  • The vote followed the program's 'Noche de Última Chance' on Sunday, Oct. 18, when the jury handed out several black aprons and awarded Marta Fort a balcony safety spot for the next stage.
  • Lizy Tagliani disclosed on-air that contestants have ongoing conflicts in the show's WhatsApp group, and Hernán Coronel has reportedly left the chat because he felt ignored.
  • Wanda Nara provoked a viral moment by repeating a line tied to the 2021 'Wandagate' scandal during a studio exchange, and outlets also noted she listed a Mauro Icardi Argentina shirt for sale online.
  • Telefe moved the elimination from Sunday to Monday because of Copa Libertadores coverage; the episode posted strong ratings and judges left open the possibility of a future repechage for eliminated contestants.
