“When I was two years old, I was the victim of an attempted kidnapping by a pedophile” was one of the secrets shared, anonymously, by the contestants on “Big Brother 2024″, this Monday, the 25th, during a dynamic promoted by the sovereign of the most watched house in the country.
Nelson Fernandes revealed himself to be the author of the phrase, shocking the remaining participants of the reality show from TVI. “I was on the beach and, due to my parents’ distraction, a pedophile grabbed me and started running. Luckily, I screamed and my mother heard. She followed and managed to pull me out of his arms. He hid in a pool and went caught by the police hours later. He was surrounded. We still have the newspaper clipping of that news at home”, recalled the “Big Brother 2024” contestant.
“I often say that my life is about overcoming. I have a purpose in life and I believe that God and my parents grabbed me that day with a purpose. Thank God, I am here, today, with you. I could not be here today, in fact. He is a person who is already known to be a pedophile. He raped children, put them in barrels and threw them into the river. This was in Toronto, where I was born. I lived there until I was eight years old”, he added.
