Gold Digger or Woman in Love? - The Controversial Life of Dina Goth
From dating scandals to rumors of alien abduction, there’s few sims in Pleasantview as controversial as Dina Goth, formely known as Dina Caliente.
In an exclusive interview for The SimNation Chronicle, the lounge singer opens up her million simoleon mansion to talk about love, family and haters.
Most might know Dina as the widow of the late Michael Bachelor, brother of the infamous Bella Goth.
The fact that Michael Bachelor was a great deal older than his young wife garnered a lot of controversy.
Older men seem to be a constant in Dina’s love life, as her latest husband, inventor & scientist Mortimer Goth, is twice her age.
“Age is just a number,” Dina explains. “Love is love.”
Speaking of love, the nature of Dina’s relationship with Pleasantview’s cassanova Don Lothario is a hot topic.
Lothario’s scandalous affairs have been widely published and gossiped about.
Dina herself is claimed to be one of Lothario’s former lovers. But the young Mrs. Goth is tight-lipped on the topic.
“Don and I are close. But I’m a married woman. The past is in the past.”
The word gold digger is thrown around wherever Dina goes, even before she married into the richest family in Pleasantview.
There’s rumors that goes so far as to accuse Dina of being involved in the mysterious dissapearence of her husband’s ex-wife, Bella Goth. Those rumors have never been confirmed.
Dina herself denies marrying Mortimer for money.
“Sims hear about me and assume I’m some bimbo that married an old rich man to scam him. But that’s not true at all. I married Mortimer because I love him. We have a lot in common. We’ve both lost someone we love in the past so we understand each other’s pain.”
What is the secret to a happy marriage? According to Dina, it’s romance. She preaches the importance of keeping the flame alive.
“My marriage is very passionate. Morty and I make sure to get some time for ourselves and arrange dates as often as we can, even if we don’t leave the house.”
Two seems to be a lucky number for the Goths as the family has been blessed with two sets of twins.
Casper & Vincent came first, shortly followed by their sisters Elizabeth & Isolde.
Mortimer’s oldest children with Bella Goth have both moved out, giving room for the expanding family.
Looking at Dina’s daughter Elizabeth there’s an obvious question that has to be asked.
The SimNation Chronicle: So it’s true that you have alien ancestors?
“Yes, on my father’s side. It’s not something I’ve tried to hide. I’m very proud of my heritage.”
Spirituality plays an important part in Dina’s life. She meditates every night before bed.
“Morty and I recently took a trip to Takemizu Village. It was a very spiritual experience. The zen gardens are beautiful there and and I just felt this sence of peace.”
What does the future have in store for the woman who seems to have it all?
“I love being a singer. I would love to make it big in entertainment. But I’m really focused on my family at the moment. Raising four toddlers is a handful. *laughs*”
As for the gossip surrounding her, Dina takes it all in stride.
“I don’t let rumors bother me. There’s always going to be sims that don’t like me. There’s the saying; haters gonna hate. And It’s true.”
The Screaming Skulls and cousins had big gaming plans, but Agnes made them do their homework first. They picked up on her vibes and decided it was best not to argue.
