"Is your husband a dad?": the question to Aurora Ramazzotti, social media controversy over Caterina Balivo.

Caterina Balivo has been subjected to a barrage of criticism for a question she asked Aurora Ramazzotti. The incident occurred on Monday, October 5, during the program "La Volta Buona," where Ramazzotti, this year's contestant on "Ballando con le Stelle," was a guest along with dancer Nikita Perotti.
"How did the family react?" the host asked. "My son (Cesare, three and a half years old, ed.) had already seen the dress rehearsal. I had shown him the videos, and he already knew the song by heart and was very happy," Aurora replied. "Now he's even learning a few dance steps."
At that point the fateful question: "And your husband, who's a dad in Milan?" She was referring to Goffredo Cerza, who's staying in Milan with his son while Aurora is in Rome for the show. "Oh well, poor thing, come on, for once... I purposely waited this long before doing something like this, but I have to concentrate, so it's only right."
"It's 2026. Someone explain to Balivo that Goffredo is a dad, not a mom. A dad can take care of his child if the mom works, and vice versa," wrote one user. And again: "Welcome to the Middle Ages!", "A mom? Should we shelve this terrible and incredibly sexist term forever? The husband is a father, he's just as much a parent as she is and he's just doing his job!", "Your husband being a mom in 2026 is unbearable!", "A father doesn't help, he doesn't babysit, and he doesn't act like a 'mom': HE'S A FATHER!"
