And he added: “I knew the press attention was going to appear. You can't hide those things.”
Sofia continued: “It wasn't bad. I think I have to say that the press was very respectful and very kind. And I thought they were going to invent more things, and you know how it usually is. I was surprised and, you know, they, they just said what it was and that was it.”
