However, one of the latest controversies came from a different athletic event. Paraguayan swimmer Luana Alonso was reportedly kicked out of the Olympic Village for what was described as inappropriate behavior. According to early reports, this included wearing distracting clothing and visiting Disneyland and luxury businesses during the Games.
Despite the insistence on the case from her superiors, Luana Alonso has denied any allegations that this ban ever happened. In a story she posted on Instagram, she shut down the claims and urged people to stop spreading them around the internet. She later shared that she left voluntarily.
Though who made the decision is unclear, it is certain Luana Alonso did spend much of her off time away from her team. Hopefully, if the rumors are not true, the 20-year-old swimmer does not suffer the consequences of being painted in such a negative light.
