In Telemundo’s Top Chef VIP program there is not only cooking; There is also drama, fights and a lot of gossip. In one of the recent episodes, Alicia Machado, one of the contestants of the third season, caused great surprise among everyone after revealing her romance with the singer Ricardo Arjona.
The “spirit” that takes over Alicia Machado in “Top Chef VIP”: This is the nickname her colleagues gave her
The order they received from the chefs was to prepare a dish that they had cooked for someone special. Hence, the former beauty queen’s memories of her “first great love,” as she herself described it, came to mind.
“That person was 20 years older than me. I fell madly in love. I was very young and I had this wonderful boyfriend. One day he told me that she was going to visit me at my house and I went crazy and prepared this pasta for her,” she confessed before revealing the name of the lucky man.
Faced with the uncertainty and curiosity of the jury and the rest of the participants, Alicia pronounced “the lord of the four decades, Arjona”, which unleashed screams and astonishment from everyone. “It’s an open secret,” she added, but those present assured that no one knew, not even the reality show host Carmen Villalobos.
What was the relationship between Alicia Machado and Ricardo Arjona like?
It is not the first time that the former Miss Universe talks about her love affairs with the Guatemalan singer-songwriter. In 2022, during an interview with Yordi Rosado, she also referred to the relationship, although on that occasion she warned that “he doesn’t like me saying it, she gets angry.”
He only added that they were together for about 8 years, “between when we came and went.” However, on Top Chef VIP she offered other details.
Although he indicated that they have not had contact for many years, they ended well and there was a very nice feeling on their part. The day she made him the pasta, Arjona was in Caracas as part of a concert tour.
Chef Antonio de Livier “Toño” was one of those who was most interested in the matter and asked him if the artist had written a song for him. “He says several, I don’t know,” replied Machado, 47 years old.

El Niño Prodigio recommended viewers listen to Ricardo Arjona’s songs to see what similarities they could find between them and thus discover which of the songs would have the former Venezuelan queen as inspiration.
According to the Excelsior portal, the reason why the romance was not well known is because the interpreter of “I know you” was married to Leslie Torres, from whom he later separated and currently has a relationship with Deisy Arvelo, also Venezuelan model.
