The influencer lashed out on TikTok at a user who commented on one of her posts: "Pack your bags because when they check and see your connections with Sandro Castro and your ties to the dictatorship, you're out of here."
Flor de Cuba did not remain silent and responded with a video, stating in the description: “I am not a communist and I never have been. I truly hope an investigation is conducted to find out who has direct ties to Cuba so that the least expected can be revealed.”
The content creator asked what evidence they had of these supposed connections and added that a photo with Sandro Castro from eight years ago in a bar at a public event is not proof of anything.
