Ángel arrived on the island as a celebrity only really from his well-publicised familial disagreements, and the harsh reputation he had gained when these hit the headlines was something he was only too happy to keep up. Ángel refused to take part in the first challenge, due to ankylosing spondylitis affecting his back. While host Carlos Sobera reminded him that he knew what he signed up for, and that repeatedly sitting out challenges would threaten his place on the show, Ángel decided to sit the challenge out.https://cadenaser.com/nacional/2024/03/12/angel-cristo-jr-se-rebela-contra-supervivientes-en-el-peor-momento-posible-sabias-que-te-tenias-que-enfrentar-a-esto-cadena-ser/
Ángel also caused controversy by refusing to read a letter from home from his mother, saying "I don't need to hear any letters from my mother; I have nothing to hear from her." Sobera read the letter to viewers to fill them in - that she was willing to pay his fine for his gambling addiction as thanks for keeping her out of his situation. Ángel retorted, saying "That cannot be a gift, and I don't know why you accommodate a child abuser on this programme,"https://www.lecturas.com/television/carlos-sobera-frena-angel-cristo-jr-tras-estas-duras-palabras-contra-su-madre-barbara-rey-supervivientes-2024_153409 stunning both Carlos and viewers, but giving other Telecinco chat shows, such as Vamos a ver especially, plenty of juicy gossip, in which many were critical of Ángel appearing to only go on the show to trash talk his mother.https://www.eldiario.es/vertele/noticias/joaquin-prat-cuestiona-angel-cristo-comportamiento-supervivientes_1_11208572.html
