The Argentine comedian dating the country’s new president, populist sex guru Javier Milei, gushes about the couple’s “explosive” young relationship as the country’s financial crisis continues to escalate.
Despite dating the libertarian politician for only six months, Fátima Flórez, 42, is widely considered the first lady or first lady from Argentina.
“I’m really hooked on Javier,” she told the Sunday Times in Spanish during an interview published on Sunday, her first with a foreign media.
“Even when we are far away, we are very close. And when we’re close, we’re close, we’re explosive, explosive, you know what I mean?
Flórez did not hesitate to address Milei’s scandalous boasts about his sexual prowess, including the former tantric instructor saying he could refrain from climaxing for three months.
“There are no complaints,” he said about the intimate relationships of the powerful couple, adding with a laugh: “There is a lot of satisfaction.”

But the relationship was also off the charts in other departments, he said.
“I’m super in love with him, madly in love,” she said. “He’s a rock star.”
In fact, Milei’s talent for theatrics could make Ozzy Osbourne blush.
The 53-year-old former television commentator, who took office last month and sports a mop of unruly hair and sideburns to rival the comic book character Wolverine, appeared on the campaign trail wearing a leather jacket and wielding a massive chainsaw, which he said was to cut unnecessary spending.

Milei’s pledge to adopt the dollar instead of the peso to combat triple-digit inflation, increase gun sales, allow people to sell their organs, recriminalize abortion and privatize waterways received approval from 56 percent of the country’s voters in a second round in November.
The candidate’s authoritarian streak galvanized a large youth vote at a time when growing poverty and collapsing purchasing power were decimating the country, and his La Libertad Avanza coalition defeated Peronism, the left-wing statist system of government that had ruled Argentina. for much of the 21st century. last 75 years.
Political observers thought Milei’s victory had less to do with politics and more to do with changing the mores of the status quo. His rise was compared to the surprise right-wing victories of Donald Trump in the United States and Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil last decade.
In his first month in office, he halved the number of government departments and pushed for economic deregulation that sent prices soaring even higher.
He also shunned the official presidential palace and moved to the suburbs of Buenos Aires with five mastiffs that were genetically modified to be clones of one of his deceased dogs.
The other woman in Milei’s life is her sister Karina, whom she calls “the boss” – using the Spanish masculine form of “the boss.” Critics speculate that Karina is the one who really wields presidential power.
But Flórez insists that despite the national unrest and growing concerns about Milei’s leadership abilities, the first couple’s relationship is built to last and will benefit the country.

“People can think what they want,” says Flórez. “The truth is that we are happy together.
“We do not incorporate work into our relationship, our moments together are to enjoy. We use our time together well, caressing each other, hugging each other, connecting, talking about our feelings, the emotional and spiritual.”
Flórez takes the stage almost every night in an Argentine resort town to imitate dozens of celebrities, including Michael Jackson, Shakira and, yes, Milei, who saw his performance in late December and came up on stage to give him a 13-year hug. seconds it went viral.
During the interview, he was quick to show off his impersonation of another right-wing world leader who rose to national prominence on the small screen.

Flórez was in the room when former US president and current candidate Trump called to congratulate Milei on her November 19 victory.
“He was very excited about Javier’s victory, he was very affectionate. “He wanted to congratulate Javier on his surprising victory,” he said, before switching to English to imitate Trump’s speech: “Congratulations! Congratulations!”
Milei’s powerful new publication and Flórez’s presentation six nights a week of her program “Fátima 100%” in Mar del Plata, 420 kilometers from Buenos Aires, mean that the first couple is essentially in a long-distance relationship.
“We hadn’t seen each other in a week,” Flórez told the newspaper. “He is a dedicated full-time president, he sleeps very little to be able to work and accomplish everything he has to do, which is a lot, an enormous challenge.”
“There is an emergency situation,” he added, referring to the country’s economic crisis, “so the moments we have together, we try to make them of high quality.”
“He’s not like a politician,” Flórez gushed. “I have never seen any politician so loved by the people.”
