Sophie Kumpen, Verstappen’s mother, has recently resorted to social media to criticize Perez. The Dutch driver‘s mother recently accused his son’s teammate of cheating on his wife. Even though she deleted the comment after it went controversial but the internet never forgets.
Kumpen allegedly wrote, “And then in the evening cheating on his wife,” referring to the party night in Monaco after winning the Monaco GP race this year. As the video of the party night went online, Perez was seen dancing on the yacht with multiple women.
Fans react as Max Verstappen’s mother alleged Sergio Perez
As soon as Kumpen publicly accused Perez of such, fans from all over the world started calling out her actions. The fans also slammed her over her choice to defend her son that way.
Given below are some of the reactions taken from Twitter:
Imagine having your mommy fight your battles and bringing personal shit into it. Sophie Kumpen everybody! 🤦♀️
Maybe she should look into what (or who) is miss Kelly Piquet doing when she's not following Max to races. Monaco is small, people are talking. 🤫 https://t.co/tvf4xdMUt9

About the Monaco night, however, Perez issued a public apology to his wife later on, on social media. The former Racing Point driver wrote, “I have seen the videos that have been circulating about me and I take responsibility for it. It was a bad party that I didn’t know how to control at the height of the person that I am, but it was just that, a very bad party.”
This is totally out of hand 🤯 https://t.co/facmILlIgN

All in all, the fans were not at all pleased with the way a world champion’s mother decided to defend his son online. Not sure if Perez cheat on his wife or not, it wasn’t a way to go about it, the fans believe.
