A previously undisclosed encounter in Ibiza has become the subject of television discussion after journalist and television contributor Alexia Rivas revealed that she once went on a date with actor Carlo Costanzia.
The revelation came on Thursday, 5 November 2026, during the Mediaset programme La tarde se mueve, when fellow contributor Marta López unexpectedly asked Rivas why she had never spoken publicly about meeting Costanzia.
Rivas confirmed that they had arranged to meet after connecting through a dating application, but was quick to clarify that there had never been a romantic relationship between them.
According to her account, the encounter took place in Ibiza in 2021, shortly after her participation in the reality television programme Supervivientes.
How Alexia Rivas and Carlo Costanzia Met
Rivas explained that she and Costanzia first connected through a dating application used by celebrities and other well-known people.
After matching with each other, they decided to meet in Ibiza for a drink.
She placed the encounter in 2021, following her appearance on Supervivientes. At the time, Costanzia was also known for his acting work in the Spanish television series Toy Boy.
During the television discussion, Rivas stressed that the meeting should not be interpreted as evidence of a previous relationship.
She explained that they had simply arranged a date to get to know each other and that nothing romantic developed afterwards.
It Was a Double Date in Ibiza
One detail Rivas clarified was that neither of them attended the meeting alone.
She went with a friend, while Costanzia arrived accompanied by another friend. The four met in Ibiza for a drink.
Rivas described Costanzia as somewhat reserved during the encounter and admitted that she did not feel particularly attracted to him.
Her account also made clear that the meeting was relatively brief and did not develop into a further relationship.
Why Alexia Rivas Rejected a Second Meeting
When her colleagues asked why the two had not met again, Rivas explained that Costanzia contacted her after their initial encounter.
However, she was not interested in arranging another date.
She described him as not being her type and said that she had not enjoyed the encounter sufficiently to want to continue getting to know him.
Rivas also indicated that she had returned to her hotel after the meeting and did not pursue further contact.
Her explanation was straightforward: the attraction was not there, and the encounter simply did not lead anywhere.
Does Alejandra Rubio Know About the Ibiza Date?
The revelation also prompted questions about whether Alejandra Rubio, Costanzia's current partner, knew about his previous meeting with Rivas.
Asked about this, Rivas said she did not know whether Rubio was aware of the encounter, explaining that she could not comment on the level of trust or communication between the couple.
She did not claim that Rubio had been informed about the meeting, nor did she suggest that it had caused any difficulties in their relationship.
The encounter took place in 2021, several years before Costanzia and Rubio began their relationship in 2024.
A Television Revelation That Put Ibiza in the Spotlight
The unexpected conversation on La tarde se mueve quickly attracted attention, with Marta López introducing the subject and other contributors joining the discussion.
Among those reacting were Leticia Requejo and José María Almoguera, while presenter Ion Aramendi also took part in the exchange.
Although the revelation generated curiosity because of Costanzia's current public relationship, Rivas repeatedly emphasised that there had been no romance between them.
Her account describes a single meeting in Ibiza following an introduction through a dating application, with no second date and no subsequent relationship.
The story has once again brought Ibiza into the celebrity news spotlight, this time through an anecdote from the personal history of two familiar television personalities.
