Italy Mora talks candidly about her exit from Miss Universe, describing the decision as painful and dispelling the myths around it.

The shocking disqualification of Panama's representative, Italy Mora, has already made headlines for the 73rd Miss Universe pageant, which will be held at Mexico City's Arena Ciudad de México. She was fired because she disregarded the rigorous guidelines of the pageant. Without the event organizers' prior consent, she allegedly joined her boyfriend, Juan Abadia, in his own hotel room.

Rumors of a heated argument between Mora and Miss Universe Panama director Cesar Anel Rodriguez, however, have surfaced, raising the possibility of a more serious dispute. According to reports, the dispute centered on complaints about how the event was organized.
