Ana Peleteiro Dances her way to Pablo Motos’ Feet on ‘El Hormiguero’

‘The Anthill’ kicks off this week with the visit of Spanish athlete, Ana Peleteiro. The recent bronze winner in the world triple jump has returned to the program presented by Pablo Motos on Antenna 3. Peleteiro is specialized in the triple jump.

She has won medals in European and world championships, with a gold in the European Athletics Championships indoor track in 2019. She is known for her technique and dedication in the discipline of jumping. During her last visit to ‘The Anthill,’ she discussed her pregnancy and made it clear that she wouldn’t let her professional life interfere with her personal life, prioritizing the Olympic Games.

Ana Peleteiro addressed the recent criticism she has faced, stating, “They have been criticizing me since I was little. They have belittled my work and criticized my interest in TV. But I always deliver. We should stop judging others; I no longer get angry with anyone. I find peace at home and don’t waste my energy on those who don’t matter.”

Motos asked Peleteiro about her experience getting back into competition after changes in her body due to pregnancy. She admitted, “I don’t like to talk about this, as people might judge me for complaining. It was a tough start, feeling uncomfortable in my competition attire.”

Peleteiro elaborated on her struggle with body image in competition attire, highlighting the challenges she faced with sizing and self-perception on TV. She concluded, “I still need to work on accepting myself in competition clothes, as it has been difficult for me.”
