By means of an invitation to a program on Canal RCN, the beloved former councilor Lucho Díaz finally spoke about his controversial departure from MasterChef and what he thought at the time.
If there is something that has characterized this new season of MasterChef it has been the controversy, well discussions between some of the participants, such as that between Liss Pereira and Carla Giraldothe scandalous statements of Alicia Machado about the reality show and the criticism of viewers towards some of the participants have made this a rather hot topic in networks.
Each broadcast of the program unleashes a storm of comments, but without a doubt, last weekend’s episode has been one of the most controversial, because in it Not only was there an unprecedented double elimination, but the unexpected departure of a particular participant also occurred, which caused deep sadness to the followers of the reality show.
Well, after considering that his effort had not been sufficiently valued by the juries Nicolas de Zubiria, Jorge Rausch and Chris Carpentier during the blood sausage challenge, the beloved ex-councilman Lucho Diazwho had won the hearts of Colombians with his humility and simplicity, decided not to cook and to retire voluntarily.
Although under pressure from the presenter Claudia Bahamon (who even went to the pantry to make a market) the former councilman tried to prepare one last dish to «present something to the chefs» in the last few minutes, his preparation had been left raw, which was simply inexcusable.
With him, surprisingly, the former Venezuelan Miss Universe Alicia Machado had to leave the program (since her dish had also turned out badly). However, the cook declared in his last words that his fault was made with every intention of leaving since he was tired, which caused annoyance among the chefs.

“There are things that one says: ‘I make an effort to do things and I don’t’, so I thought, what am I doing here? I better step aside and keep cooking. I’m going where glorita, my wife. She is the only one who says that I do everything well”
The presenter right there Violeta Bergonzi asked him: «Did you quit because you lost to Marbelle doing the black pudding?» to which Diaz replied: «Don’t ask me those questions.»
Finally, the presenters asked him about the reaction that his beloved Gloria and the rest of his family had, for which he said: “They did not like it. Neither my daughters nor my wife. I had told them since the morning that she didn’t want to be on the show anymore (…) I was already tired. I’ve always been a good loser, but I didn’t want more.”
