As some fans might already know, Peter Weber’s mom is fluent in Spanish because she hails from Cuba. Barbara Weber showed off her bilingual skills during a heated moment at “After the Final Rose,” when she whispered something in the language to Peter’s dad, Peter Weber Sr. The awkward moment occurred after Barbara uttered this painful jab about the couple, per Refinery29, “All his friends, all his family…everyone that knows him knows it’s not going to work. So we’ve been trying to help him.” When host Chris Harrison asked Peter’s dad for his thoughts on the situation, Barbara leaned in and whispered, “Di algo mal también, ayúdame,” before he had the chance to speak. As for the translation? Peter’s mom essentially said, “Say something bad, too. Help me,” according to People. Yikes with a capital Y.
If there is any humor to be found in this situation, it’s that Barb apparently thought she was sly enough for people to miss her snub. But a word to the wise, Pete’s mom — a 2011 research paper by U.S. Census Bureau Demographers predicted that by 2020, the number of Spanish speakers in the United States is anywhere between 39 million and 43 million. “If my mom did this to me we would argue about it at every family gathering for the rest of time,” one fan tweeted about Barbara’s not-so-subtle dig.
