Capristo clarified that while she and Chaves were never close friends, they shared a cordial relationship when their husbands, Gustavo Conti and Pedro Alfonso, worked together. Capristo explained that she used to host Chaves and Alfonso at her home, maintaining a friendly atmosphere. However, this changed due to a specific incident.

I would never be friends with Paula. We have a different vibe. We are different women. There is something specific about her that I didn't like, and she knows it and I told her.
