An Instagram user was clear about it: she had to give it a thumbs-down. “You need to lose weight, very famous but fat”, she wrote to Melissa Ávalos, wife of Paraguayan goalkeeper Orlando Gill.
Melissa did not stay silent. With humor and no mincing words, she replied: “This is how my husband likes me, ma’am, I eat well, sleep well, and I’m a good goalkeeper”. But Orlando wanted to say something stronger than just a few words.
This Thursday night, the couple posted a photo of themselves hugging on Instagram, where no text is needed to understand the message: Gill has more than enough reasons to admire his wife just as she is. The criticism was left there, floating alone, while the love between the two drew all the attention. 🧤❤️
