Gloria Camila and Álvaro García Face Racist Online Abuse in Spain

Influencer Gloria Camila and her partner Álvaro García publicly denounced a wave of racist and xenophobic comments they received on social media. Their complaints sparked a heated discussion on the TV program "El verano se mueve".

Camila responded to the attacks, stating, "Negra para mí es un piropo…" and defended her right to comment on the Ceuta migration crisis, emphasizing her legal status and Spanish nationality. Colleagues on the show, including Belén Rodríguez, Marta López and Antonio Montero, condemned the hateful messages and advised against giving further attention to the haters.

The incident highlights the persistence of online hate directed at public figures in Spain and the broader debate over freedom of expression and racism in the media.
