Medical Complications Threaten Competition Continuity
According to statements made by Capelli following her return to the stage, she discovered she was pregnant two months prior to the public announcement. The dancer initially intended to keep the news private, but persistent physical symptoms during rehearsals made concealment difficult. “Literally, behind the maneuver I vomited and it was already too much,” Capelli recounted.
Initially attributing her severe physical discomfort to gastritis while speaking with production staff, Capelli faced a critical juncture when medical examinations revealed a complication impacting the pregnancy. According to the dancer, her attending physician advised her that she could not continue participating in the demanding television program.
Seeking Multiple Medical Opinions
Faced with a potential exit from Fiebre de Baile, Capelli sought additional evaluations to determine whether physical participation remained viable. The competitor consulted three different medical specialists before reaching a final decision regarding her status on the show.
“I asked for three different opinions and they told me that I can continue,” Capelli stated, confirming she received clearance to proceed with necessary medical treatment while remaining in the competition. The dancer expressed frustration regarding public speculation and commentary surrounding her temporary absence from scheduled performances, particularly criticism from individuals questioning her commitment after missing rehearsal or dance sessions due to health issues.
Addressing Public Criticism and Future Expectations
Defending her work ethic against outside commentary, Capelli emphasized her dedication to the program. “Of what I can least be accused is of being lazy. If I could dance five days a week, I would do it,” she noted.
Reflecting on her experience navigating the early stages of pregnancy amidst intensive television production, Capelli described fluctuating hormone levels and shared her personal intuition regarding the baby’s gender, stating she believes she is expecting a boy.
