Who is Luis 'Potro' Caballero?

Caballero is a Mexican musician, actor, and reality TV personality who rose to prominence while appearing on MTV Spain and MTV Latin America's show 'Super Shore' from 2016 to 2017. The show brought together cast members from the Mexican and Spanish versions of the 'Jersey Shore' to live in the same house for a timeframe. The first season was shot in Mykonos, Greece, and Madrid, and Spain, the second season in Marbella, Spain, and the third season in Rimini, Italy.

Caballero was cast on 'Acapulco Shore' after appearing on 'Super Shore' for three seasons. He was in seven episodes, all of which aired in 2018. In 2020, he hosted four episodes of 'Tu Casa TV en Directo' and featured as a guest on 'Miembros al aire' and 'De noche con Yordi Rosado'. Caballero will next appear on 'All Star Shore' alongside Pivarnick, Blake Horstmann from 'Bachelor in Paradise', Miss Vanjie from 'RuPaul's Drag Race', and others.



 

Did Angelina Pivarnick cheat on her husband with Luis Caballero?

The Sun revealed in February 2022 that Caballero and Pivarnick had an affair while shooting 'All Star Shore'. At the time of the alleged romance, the Staten Island native was hitched to her now-divorced husband Chris Larangeira. According to a source, Pivarnick traveled to Spain in December 2021 to shoot the Paramount + show, where she met and supposedly had an affair with the Mexican native. According to the insider, once filming wrapped and Pivarnick went home, Larangeira discovered she had cheated on him and instantly moved out of their house. As per In Touch, Larangeira asked for a divorce from the former EMT in January 2022. According to court papers, he filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences which have caused that breakdown of the marriage for a period of at least six months.”

What has Angelina Pivarnick stated about the alleged affair?

Pivarnick first just admitted to Deena that she slept in the bed with Caballero on the latest episode of 'Jersey Shore Family Vacation'. She said that she merely loved getting his ' attention. When she returned from Spain, she stated that her ex-husband had not given her anything and had not made any arrangements for New Year's Eve. Pivarnick stated that this is when Caballero contacted her and invited her to Cancun. She said that they simply hung out and saw fireworks together in Mexico, but did not hook up.

Deena indicated she wanted to speak with Caballero over FaceTime. He informed Deena that he adored Pivarnick and wants to look after her. Deena directly asked him whether he ever slept with Pivarnick. "I have a bad connection now," he explained. "It's not called sex, it's making love." Pivarnick crept into a corner and hid, while Caballero confirmed their secret rendezvous.

Did Pivarnick and Caballero split up?

Their romance, however, didn't last long as she was later spotted in bed, recording audio messages to him in rage after admitting things had "taken a really bad turn." Caballero pulled out of the relationship by text message following the trip to Cancun with her. "Toxic," Caballero said. “I don't want that around me.”

Pivarnick revealed in a confessional that Caballero made her feel more in three days than her husband had in three years, but that he was "very dramatic" and that it was time for her to find "a real f---ing man at this point." She admitted that her marriage was over. She is not with Caballero, and "it's my body against father time, I might never have a child, which sucks," she stated in an anguished confessional.

Later in the episode, when catching up with Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, she voiced her displeasure at having to start over with someone fresh and expressed concern that she might never have a child.
