Klopotenko speaks out about the conflict with Hector Jimenez-Bravo for the first time: they appealed to Instagram support for a month

Famous Ukrainian chef, restaurateur, and food blogger Yevhen Klopotenko spoke about a conflict with his colleague, MasterChef host and judge Hector Jimenez-Bravo, for the first time. As it turned out, the Colombian chef had long been holding a grudge against the winner of MasterChef Season 5 all because of his strange Instagram "behavior."

Hector was sure that his colleague had blocked him on social media. However, Yevhen thought the same about Hector. Klopotenko spoke about the conflict "out of nothing" and its end in an interview for TSN's YouTube project Naodynci (Alone).

"He was offended because he thought I had deleted and blocked him. I thought he had deleted and blocked me. It turned out that the problem was the Instagram inself. It took us a month to solve it, we appealed to the app's support. Indeed, neither he nor I blocked each other, but we were both offended," Klopotenko said.

At the moment, any resentment and conflicts between the two celebrity chefs have been resolved. In fact, according to Klopotenko, after the full-scale invasion, Ukraine's culinary experts finally stopped competing with each other and turned into a real community, forgetting old feuds.

"I didn't communicate with the cooks before, they all hated me. Now, after the borscht that united us, we started to communicate. Everything is fine with all the chefs. Everyone has taken their roles, we all have enough work, and we have become a community. There are no conflicts with anyone," the chef said.
