A Fazenda 18 faces controversies involving Sergio Hondjakoff and Darlin Ferrattry

The reality show ‘A Fazenda 18’ is currently facing several controversies involving its participants. Actor Sergio Hondjakoff is at the center of a dispute with journalist Leo Dias. Hondjakoff claimed during the program that his mother, Carmen Lúcia Hondjakoff, had negotiated money with Dias to prevent the publication of negative news. Dias has denied these allegations, calling them unfounded, and announced plans to pursue legal action. Hondjakoff’s mother also refuted the claims, stating she has never had contact with the journalist.

Additionally, Hondjakoff remains in the competition after Record decided not to expel him following an accusation of harassment by participant Ana Bruna Ávila. While the broadcaster warned him about his conduct, he was allowed to stay.

Another participant, Darlin Ferrattry, briefly signaled her intention to leave the show by ringing the resignation bell following a heated conflict with participant Giovanna Gold. However, after discussions with the production team, Ferrattry decided to remain in the competition.

The program is currently heading toward an elimination phase, with participants Adryana Ribeiro, Daniel Erthal, and Maíra Charken facing a public vote.
