Hi!
If 12 corazones is the programe from Argentina, I'd say that the word "caprichoso" does NOT have a positive connotation. On the contrary, she might have ment they were demanding, fussy or picky.

You can also hear that a child is "caprichoso" meaning he/she is spoilt.

At least in Argentina, being "caprichoso" is not exactly a virtue!

Hope it helps
