Fernando Dente
was a guest in
Los Angeles in the morning
(El Trece, Monday to Friday at 11) and there he made a revelation about the bond he maintains with the actor Nicolás Di Pace, his partner, and
what happens on social networks every time you upload a photo with him
.
In the last 20 years, despite the fact that there is still a long way to go, society has advanced by leaps and bounds on issues related to gender equality and sexuality.
However, the actor assured that he
continues to suffer in his own flesh
some old attitudes of people who do not accept his relationship.
"Every time we upload photos together to the networks, the followers leave us,"
said Dente in dialogue with Ángel de Brito.
In any case, he acknowledged that he downplays the matter:
"It is very strange, but it happens ...".
Fernando Dente and Nicolás Di Pace, in love.
Fer Dente, who for most of his career showed a very low profile and in interviews refused to talk about his love life, only in October 2018 did he
publicly disclose his sexual orientation through a letter
.
"
Many years ago my sexuality ceased to be an issue in my life
. Although at some point it was, especially as a boy, when I felt that something 'was wrong with me' because it was different (different from what happened in my family , on TV, in magazines, etc.), "he wrote.
"Since I decided to start being honest with my feelings, in my personal life I never lied or covered up or anything similar to the subject. But
in the public sphere it was not always like that,
" he had said about it.
Two years after openly telling that he is gay, during the pandemic, Dente
confirmed that he had found love and introduced Nicolás
, as his partner, on the networks.
"The truth is that I am part of that generation that was told that the private was private.
At first I asked the media not to ask me about the subject
, more than anything, for my family," Fer admitted to the little angels .
And then he explained: "
I am 33 and Nico 27
and although there is not much difference there is a mini generational leap. With him I learned to speak more freely about those issues in which there was prejudice".
Regarding the bond they maintain, Fernando highlighted the good dialogue they have as a couple and
told the secret to getting along so well
: "On weekends we are almost 24 hours together but later, in the week, each one goes home and has his things. That's why we don't get tired. "
The silent violence of homophobia
A month ago, Ricky Martin had said that he had suffered something similar to what Fer Dente revealed in the last hours.
The singer said that after posting a romantic photo production with her husband, Jwan Yosef, she
had lost a considerable number of fans on her social networks.
"Today I want to speak to you from my most vulnerable side ... I recently uploaded some photos with my husband for a magazine, and
for both of us it was a wonderful experience
and a way to celebrate our pride ...", the Puerto Rican began by saying in his discharge.
Ricky Martin responded to the homophobic messages he received after posting a series of photos with her husband Jwan Yosef.

"What I did not expect, especially after all the work that has been done for so many years, is that
a large number of people decided to stop following us or commented in a derogatory way.
Of course, it is not the number of followers that it worries, but the message that is behind his decision ”, he stressed.

Finally, the singer acknowledged that this attitude from a sector of society brought back dark memories of his past: “It has caused me the same feeling that I had years ago before sharing publicly about my sexual orientation;
that same fear that paralyzed me, tormented me and would not let me be
”.
