Mauro Icardi and Benjamín Vicuña clash over coparenting

A public dispute has escalated between footballer Mauro Icardi and actor Benjamín Vicuña regarding the coparenting of Vicuña’s children, Magnolia and Amancio, with Eugenia ‘China’ Suárez. The conflict began after Vicuña discussed the emotional difficulty of the distance between him and his children during a television appearance.

Icardi responded via social media, accusing Vicuña of playing the victim and questioning his level of involvement as a father. Icardi claimed that during the children’s recent stay in Argentina, Vicuña only spent approximately 15 to 20 days with them. Icardi further escalated the tension by posting a photo of a bathroom, a reference to past criticisms regarding Vicuña’s personal habits.

Vicuña has dismissed the accusations as ‘ridiculous,’ stating that he fulfills his responsibilities and maintains a strong bond with his children. He expressed a desire to handle such delicate matters privately rather than through social media or television. Meanwhile, Anita Espasandín, Vicuña’s partner, has posted messages of support for the actor, focusing on emotional resilience and self-worth.
