Juan José Lafaurie, the son of Senator María Fernanda Cabal once again caught the attention of social networks with a video that this time shows not only her support for her mother’s presidential candidacy in the Democratic Center, but also a scene that went viral for its human and close tone.
On this occasion, the 26-year-old lawyer surprised former President Álvaro Uribe Vélez, leader of the right-wing political party, with a question that left everyone speechless due to the very personal tone: while she was visiting Medellín with him and his mother.

The content posted on Juan José Lafaurie’s TikTok account showed a more intimate facet of the relationship between mother and son and also gave a glimpse into the interaction between them and the former president.
In the video, Juan José, with his relaxed and friendly tone, takes the conversation to a more intimate level by asking Uribe who he thinks his mother’s favorite son is. This question arises from a dynamic that he himself has created in his publications, in which he tries to convince both the public and his own mother that he is the favorite, even though she insists that it is Santiago; The former president’s reaction, far from the usual political rigidity, triggered an avalanche of reactions and comments on social networks.
Juan José Lafaurie’s question was direct and somewhat unusual: “Who do you think is María Fernanda’s mother’s favorite son?” This seemingly simple question surprised Uribe, who, far from answering in a traditional manner, chose to give it a more diplomatic twist:
“I hope that all four are different, that all four are favorites.” The reaction caused laughter both in the video and among followers on social networks, who identified with the interaction between the three.
In a relaxed and close tone, the conversation between Lafaurie and Uribe continued in an entertaining way, while María Fernanda Cabal, who appears in the video as a loving and supportive mother, did not miss to add her own touch of humor.
Another question he asked the former president was to describe his mother in a single word, but Uribe surprised by remarking: “May I have three words? A standout among the terse.”
Through these videos, her son manages to humanize her and show her as a loving mother, which resonates even with those who do not share her ideology. The videos show a more relaxed María Fernanda Cabal surrounded by family affection, which is surprising in contrast to her more serious and combative public image.
The exchange on TikTok was not limited to interactions with Uribe. The conversation moved on to more personal topics, such as the senator’s culinary preferences, which drew more laughter.
María Fernanda Cabal, who had claimed that she could no longer eat rinds that day, ended up ordering a baked bacon, which was caught on camera and jokingly commented by her son: “The chubby girl who didn’t want to eat pork rinds this morning. Look what she just ordered.”
Another strange moment occurred when Juan José Lafaurie jokingly suggested that his mother pay him “a few good euros” for a trip, which provoked a quick reaction from María Fernanda Cabal. “It seems like you’re unemployed,” she said with a laugh, once again showing the maternal side that few knew about the senator.
María Fernanda Cabal’s campaign for the 2026 presidency is not only focused on her political agenda, but is also strengthened by the emotional connection with her son, who has managed to show his supporters a new dimension of the senator.
