Perhaps the most searing criticism has come from within the family itself.
As per Daily Mail, a relative, identified only as Rayssa, made headlines when she wrote in a now-deleted post: “Today is a hard day to swallow… betrayal from the people we least expect. If my mother were alive, she would not be able to bear such monstrosity.”
The relationship timeline has been subject to scrutiny, especially with Hulk reportedly informing both Camila’s parents and brother before going public.
