The End of a Love Story and the Start of Rumors
The news hit fans like a bucket of cold water: La Joaqui (real name Joaquinha Lerena de la Riva) and Luck Ra (Facundo) confirmed their separation after a two-year relationship. Although both tried to handle the situation maturely, rumors of an alleged infidelity quickly spread. The name that immediately landed at the center of the controversy was Tuli Acosta, a dancer and friend of the Córdoba-born singer.
La Joaqui spoke about the breakup on the shows PLP (Luzu TV) and Infama (América TV), where she broke down in tears remembering the relationship. “I had never lived a love like this. He is still the love of my life… I want him to be happy regardless of whether that happiness is no longer with me,” she said painfully, clarifying that Luck Ra made the decision to end things. She also completely denied the infidelity: “He never cheated on me, he would be incapable of cheating on me, and there were no third parties involved.”
“The Horn Route”: Pepe Ochoa’s Version
In the midst of the uproar, panelist Pepe Ochoa on the show LAM (América TV) revealed how the singer supposedly found out about the alleged affair. The story, which he himself dubbed “la ruta del cuerno” (the horn route, a slang term for the chain of gossip about cheating), involves four people and ends with two simultaneous breakups.
According to Ochoa, it all started when Tuli Acosta confessed to her hairdresser and close friend, Alejo, about the relationship she was having with Luck Ra. The problem was that Alejo was not only Tuli’s stylist, but also La Joaqui’s. Aware of the situation, Alejo told his boyfriend, Valentín, who worked in the same environment and had great affection for the singer.
It was Valentín who, seeing the situation, decided to tell La Joaqui the truth with a blunt phrase: “Luck Ra is cheating on you.” Upon learning this, the singer confronted her hairdresser: “Valentín told me, you can’t lie to me.” The outcome of this story was also fatal for the hairdresser’s relationship: Alejo and Valentín separated after the episode.
Who Is Tuli Acosta, the Alleged Third Party?
Beyond the gossip, Tuli Acosta is a well-known figure in the Argentine entertainment world. Her full name is Fiorella Acosta, she was born on June 20, 2001 in Río Ceballos, Córdoba, and went viral during the pandemic with her live-streamed dance classes.
Her leap to mainstream fame came at the end of 2023, when Marcelo Tinelli called her for Bailando 2023 (the Argentine version of Dancing with the Stars) as a replacement for Noelia Pompa. Although she entered near the end, at the beginning of 2024 she was crowned the grand winner of the competition. In her personal life, she had a controversial relationship with streamer Oky (2020-2022) and later dated singer Lit Killah for three years, from whom she separated in 2025.
Faced with the rumors, Tuli also came out to deny them and, tired of every post of hers being taken as a hint, she ironically commented on TikTok: “Here I can’t make TikToks because otherwise they’re hints.” Luck Ra, for his part, was blunt: “Nothing of what I’m being criticized for is true. Nothing happened with Tuli.”
La Joaqui’s Plea: Peace and Therapy
Far from seeking controversy, La Joaqui asked her followers to stop the hate messages against her ex. “I have nothing bad to say about Facu. In fact, I would love for people to stop saying ugly things to him,” she stated, and emphasized that she is going through the process with the help of a therapist.
She was also clear about her romantic future: “I don’t want to meet anyone. I want to be respectful of the love I feel, even if today we choose not to continue that love.” A mature ending to a story that still generates conversation in every corner of the country.
