It was during an episode of the series ‘Secretos de las indomables’, broadcast at the beginning of this month of September, that the former beauty queen told how the singer allegedly attacked her.
“He blows my cheek, I roll, he hits me with the kitchen wall and I’m in shock. She comes on top of me and starts kicking me with her boot,” is something she said.
Niurka attacks Alicia Machado
Weeks following what the actress said regarding José Manuel Figueroa became known, Niurka Marcos expressed her honest opinion.
“I am absolutely not interested in anything that comes from Alicia Machado,” he stated this September 28 before the microphone of media outlets such as Despierta América.
“For me, she leaves a lot to be desired, so if they put a couple of whores in her… in the past, they will have been stupidly earned…, with the penalty,” he commented.
Since September of last year, Niurka made it clear that she did not have a good opinion of Alicia, this during her visit to Siéntese Quien Pueda!
“The one that drowns, because it is poisonous, too cold of its soul. She treated the ‘fandom’, the race, badly. She cannot treat the audience badly and, apart from that, (she is) hypocritical and convenient,” she stated.
Previously, the model criticized Marcos’ participation in a ‘reality show’ during his stay, which involved living isolated, along with other celebrities, inside a house.
So far, Machado has not commented on the statements that the star gave regarding her alleged experience with the singer-songwriter.

“I said that there mightn’t be that type of violence in the relationship because it meant starting to lack respect in a very serious way,” he explained in an interview with ‘Sale el sol’.
He noted that the day following what happened, he asked the star to leave his house because he no longer “felt comfortable with her” and their romance “had escalated to a situation that should not be allowed.”
After what he said, Machado communicated, in a message to Gustavo Adolfo Infante, that he would no longer say more regarding the subject for his “own safety.” “His only talent is hitting women,” he said of José Manuel.
