Nicolás Occhiato confirms legal dispute with Florencia Peña: 'It's been judicialized'

Nicolás Occhiato, producer and host at Luzu TV, has confirmed that a legal conflict with actress Florencia Peña has been taken to court. Occhiato returned to Argentina after covering the 2026 World Cup and addressed the situation for the first time, stating it is now a judicial matter and he had nothing further to say.

Reports suggest Peña is seeking approximately 750 million pesos from the streaming channel following her exit. While it initially seemed the dispute might be resolved internally, Peña reportedly considered legal action over the terms of her departure. Occhiato acknowledged a conversation with Peña after the incident but described it as private.

When questioned about whether Peña's stance shifted from initial reconciliation to legal action, Occhiato stated he did not know and preferred not to comment. He also confirmed speaking with Marley, another host, while in the United States, calling their conversation private. Occhiato expressed optimism about Marley continuing with the channel.

Occhiato refuted claims that Luzu TV is losing sponsors due to the scandal, pointing to the high volume of advertising as evidence to the contrary. He also clarified that his return to Argentina was planned after the Round of 16 matches in the World Cup.
