Lele Pons is a social media star with over 40 million Instagram followers, 16 million YouTube subscribers, and a gay dad who she adores.
In the most recent episode of her web series The Secret Life of Lele Pons, she opens up about the time she learned her dad was gay after she accidentally walked in on him with another man.
“I came to his room and I saw him actually, like, sleeping with a man. And I was, like, 10 years old, and that for me was, like, ‘Oh, my God, I can’t believe it. Like, I saw… my dad,'” the 23-year-old Venezuelan recalls.
Pons goes on to say that learning about her father’s sexuality wasn’t an easy thing for her to grasp as a child.
Today, Pons says she and her father have worked through their issues and are “so close,” even joking that be’s since gotten revenge on her for walking in on him and his lover.

Truthfully, he probably told her but that didn’t make as good a story.

Please tell this “Influencer” that she has NO “influence” and she should really keep her dirty laundry at home.

An “influencer?”
That MUST be a joke on Queerty’s part.

I hate this woman, I think she’s a terrible person, but she has a shit-tonne of followers and does influence a lot of teenage girls, unfortunately.

If we could somehow remove the word “like” from existence, that would shut her up!

At 10 years old she was asking how being gay feels and what made him decide to marry her mother? Sounds unlikely.
