Glam Olympics star Luana Alonso teases VERY surprising career change after retiring amid ‘inappropriate behaviour’ row
SWIM star Luana Alonso appears to be unbothered amid “inappropriate behaviour” allegations as she teases a surprising career change following her retirement.
It was claimed that Alonso was “distracting” fellow competitors in the Athletes’ Village and was wearing racy outfits before she hinted at a career switch.

After failing to progress past the women’s 100m butterfly heats in the Summer Games campaign by a mere 0.24 seconds, Alonso called time on her career and announced her retirement.
But now she has teased a very surprising career change that has nothing to do with swimming.
Alonso shocked fans when she retweeted a post on X, formerly Twitter, that called her to go on Miss Universe.
Fans were quick to comment on the possibility of Alonso becoming a beauty queen.
One user said: “I think you should go straight to Hollywood, not to a beauty contest.”
Another commented: “You are so beautiful!”
And: “Gorgeous.”
When announcing her retirement, she told her 831,000 Instagram followers: “It’s official now! I’m retiring from swimming, thank you all so much for the support.
“Sorry Paraguay, I only have to thank you!”
Alonso could also consider a career in social media influencing as she’s reached almost a million followers in a short space of time.
Her Instagram account boasts an ultra-rich lifestyle with trips across the world, designer shopping and eating at the best restaurants.
A casual selfie shook users, showing her smiling with world-famous tennis champion Rafael Nadal.
Another mirror selfie shows Alonso in what looks to be an old mansion with pictures with gold frames adorning the walls and vintage furniture dotted around the room.
Other posts show her holidaying in mega-rich destinations like Qatar and Cancun, Mexico.
The 20-year-old was reportedly banished from the Paris 2024 Athletes’ Village over her behaviour and visiting Disneyland.
Paraguayan media outlets said she had upset the country’s Olympic leadership by choosing to visit a tourist destination over supporting her teammates, sparking a heated row.
Bosses at the Paraguayan Olympic Committee were left furious over Alonso’s behaviour, with claims suggesting they booted her out and sent her back home.
A statement chief Larissa Schaerer read: “Her presence is creating an inappropriate atmosphere within Team Paraguay.
“We thank her for proceeding as instructed, as it was of her own free will that she did not spend the night in the Athletes’ Village.”
However, Alonso said she was never kicked out or expelled from the country’s Olympic campaign – and asked not to spread the misinformation.
In a social media post, she wrote: “I just wanted to clarify that I was never kicked out or expelled from anywhere, please stop spreading false information.
“I don’t want to make any statement but I’m not going to let lies affect me either.”
