She said: “We were poor, we had no food, we had nothing to eat, nothing, so my mum had to get with the rich man so she could get out of Cuba, but she still had a boyfriend over there.
“He’s in Mexico in jail. I’m never gonna see him out of jail. My mom told me that my real dad told her that it was best for her to be with my other dad. It was best for me to be with Horan, the dad I have now. Because he was gonna give me a better life and he didn’t want me to live in Cuba.
“I’ve been living in a bubble and I’ve always been like is my dad my real dad? Because I don’t even look like him…So now I feel bad for the dad that has to care for me now.”
Since the Instagram live was posted, Malu has hit out at fans for allegedly making fun of her and targeting her stepdad on his social media pages.
In a post to her Instagram story, she wrote “the people making fun of it, y’all going to hell bye.”
