Ana de Armas has made a return to Instagram following the revelation of her relationship with Manuel Anido Cuesta, the advisor and stepson of Cuban leader Miguel Díaz-Canel. Known for her silence when embroiled in controversies, the actress broke her quiet spell this Thursday by sharing a post from The Academy in her Instagram stories.
On November 28, five years ago, the Oscar-nominated film Knives Out, starring Ana alongside Daniel Craig and Chris Evans, premiered. However, her social media presence didn't stop there. Ana de Armas also showcased a Christmas gift from the French luxury brand Louis Vuitton, an act some might see as a subtle message.
In the wake of the uproar surrounding her new relationship, Louis Vuitton has faced harsh criticism for maintaining Ana as a brand ambassador. Even prominent clients like Taty Guiribitey have protested, threatening to cease purchasing from the brand if the actress remains their representative.
Moreover, the Cuban community in Miami has also objected to a campaign by the American brand Estée Lauder due to Ana de Armas being featured as the face of their advertisements.
