In the clip, Juliette spoke about how she was 19 when she was pregnant with her daughter, Penelope, in 2015. She started off by stating that she already had issues with Espina's mother at the time, but things got worse when she was in labour.
"I was giving birth to Penelope and I let (Luis's) mom be in the room to watch me give birth, which was also a huge issue," Juliette explained in the video, adding, "I was like, 'I don't want your mom in the room, I only want you." Espina interrupted by saying, "She didn't get along with my mom at the time."
"I only (wanted) you and my mom in the room — my husband and my mom — for emotional support," Juliette explained, adding that Espina insisted on having his mother present, despite her efforts to convince him at the time that "it's not about you."
"He didn't really understand that when you give birth, it's about the wife, it's about the mom," Juliette said, adding, "She's the one who's giving birth; she's the one who's going through things physically and mentally." "Whatever she's comfortable with is the most important," Espina, who seemed to have learnt his lesson after the episode in 2015, said.
Juliette continued, "At the moment my water breaks, I go to the hospital — it's my first time giving birth, and I'm f*****g 19 years old."
"I remember having contractions and thinking, 'I'm going to do a birth without an epidural,' so I tried to push it through as long as I could, and at the time, I was just so focused on my contractions that literally we had my mom, you, your mom, your brother, and your aunt who I never spoke to in my whole f*****g life in the room watching my birth," Juliette said.
"Because they're Cubans," Espina explained, adding, "They just want to be involved; they think everything is fine and nothing is taboo."
"I wish you would have had my back then, like, 'All right, Bramty, you're about to give birth, everybody out, only what my wife wants,' but you didn't have that mentality," Juliette said, adding, "Most of the time, you had your mother's back." "I was 18," Espina responded.
"I remember pushing and I remember your f*****g mom and your aunt taking pictures of my vagina while I was pushing, then later finding out that your aunt sent the pictures to family members," Juliette said.
"SHE SENT PICS TO FAMILY MEMBERS???? WHAT"
Many users backed Juliette's after hearing her story. A user commented, "SHE SENT PICS TO FAMILY MEMBS???? WHAT." Another wrote, "Respectfully, I would’ve left Luis. I don’t think I could forgive my husband if he didn’t have my back. I’m so sorry you had to go through that Bramty." Another user commented, "In her voice u can tell she still doesn’t like her mother in law don’t worry sis we’re here," while another chimed in with, "I would of lost my mind."
