Luma Costa, 38, has addressed her fallout with Marina Ruy Barbosa, 31, after the actresses stopped following each other on Instagram. The development drew attention online because the pair have been friends since childhood, with their relationship spanning more than two decades.
The situation gained attention on Sunday, when users noticed that Costa and Ruy Barbosa were no longer following each other on the platform. The change prompted speculation about the reason for the apparent breakdown in their friendship.
One theory circulating on social media suggested that political differences had caused the rift. Journalist Hugo Gloss also mentioned the claim, prompting Costa to respond directly to his post.
Costa confirmed that she and Ruy Barbosa had a disagreement, but denied that politics was responsible. She said she would not end a friendship because of differing political views, citing her relationship with her sister as an example.
The actress also criticized the association of her name with an alleged extremist position and questioned the version being circulated online. According to Costa, the political explanation was being used as a convenient narrative, but it was not the real reason for the dispute.
The actual cause of the disagreement between Costa and Ruy Barbosa has not been publicly disclosed.
