Bautista turned 5 years old. And he celebrated it far from his mom, amid World Cup fever, surrounded by his dad Rodrigo De Paul and Tini Stoessel, while the national team was playing the semifinal against England.

Cami Homs held nothing back. On her social media, she dedicated a post full of photos to him: the day he was born, family vacations, moments with his sister Francesca. “On a day like today, five years ago, you arrived. My blue prince”, she wrote. And she made it clear, without beating around the bush, how hard the distance is for her on a date like this.

Today, Homs has rebuilt her life with José ‘el Principito’ Sosa, with whom she has Aitana. But there are days, like this one, when being a mom from afar weighs differently.
