An influencer has claimed that her friends have decided against inviting her to their annual Christmas celebration because she hasn’t got a plus one and will ‘tempt their husbands and boyfriends’.
With nearly one million followers on social media, Marina Smith, 34, from São Paulo, Brazil, isn’t low on male attention.
But the model believes this is why her friends have left her out of their festive dinner plans.
‘I’ve been banned from Christmas dinner because the women think I’ll steal their men,’ Marina said.
‘They’re worried I might tempt their husbands and boyfriends.’
And it was one of her friend’s boyfriends who informed the former Miss BumBum winner that she would not be invited.
Marina said: ‘The boyfriend of one of my friends told me that a WhatsApp group had been created and I wasn’t in it.
‘He said that in the group chat, my friends were discussing their concerns about my presence at the dinner. Even considering the possibility of not inviting me due to the fear that my beauty and single status would attract unwanted attention from their husbands and boyfriends.’
