Sergio Reguilon's romantic partner, Marta Diaz, who is also a model, may have experienced a degree of astonishment when she perused the commentary section of her latest racy Instagram upload. Diaz is habituated to an overflow of flattery and borderline creepy remarks on her social media posts.
Nevertheless, when she posted her latest photos of herself posing in a red and white skiing playsuit with a fluffy white hat and matching white ski boots on the frigid, snowy slopes of the Grandvalira ski resort in Andorra, she received an unanticipated comparison to the iconic character from the Simpsons, Ned Flanders.
Despite the usual profusion of gushing comments, a curious amount of messages flooded her comment section, suggesting that Diaz was "wearing nothing at all." Initially, one might suppose that this is one of the strangest coincidences ever devised in a comment section, causing discomfort to the reader. However, thousands of fans were actually referencing an unforgettable scene from the Simpsons.
During the 11th season's "Little Big Mom" episode of the renowned American animated sitcom, the Simpsons family goes on a skiing vacation. During their trip, they encounter their next-door neighbor and Homer's arch-nemesis, Flanders. Flanders is wearing a skin-tight bodysuit that clings to his body and creeps up his backside.
When Homer comments that the suit is "a bit revealing," Flanders responds by saying that it "allows for maximum mobility." "It feels like I'm wearing nothing at all," Flanders adds. This causes Homer to cringe so intensely that he accidentally sends himself hurtling down a hill, legs apart, and into the path of rocks.
Fans of the Simpsons still discuss this iconic moment today. Assuming that Diaz's photoshoot did not result in Reguilon or the photographer tumbling down an Andorran mountain at breakneck speed, Reguilon may find himself sliding into the free-agent wilderness. The left-back has only made four appearances since joining Atletico Madrid on loan at the beginning of the season, as injuries have severely limited his playing time at the Wanda Metropolitano.
With his contract at Tottenham set to expire next season, Reguilon could find himself clubless next summer if things continue on this trajectory.
