Influencer and host Wendy Guevara, recognized for winning La Casa de los Famosos Mexico in 2023 and for her networking career as part of Las Perdidas, was the victim of a serious violation of her privacy with the leak of an intimate video that briefly appeared on her Instagram account, following the theft of her cell phone in July.
Her reaction-between calm, irony and firmness-has generated repercussions for digital security and digital rights in Mexico; she is devastated but aware that it could happen to her.
Wendy Guevara’s video leak
In the early morning of August 3, 2025, an intimate video was posted on her official Instagram account.
Although it was deleted within minutes, several users captured the screenshot and the content quickly went viral on platforms such as X.
Wendy explained that the incident originated in the theft of her cell phone on July 2 while she was traveling on the road to León, Guanajuato, with her friends.
Since then, he had warned of the potential risk of leaking intimate files stored on his devices.
Public reaction: “It’s something we all do…”
During a live broadcast while preparing for a reality show gala, Wendy spoke in her trademark lighthearted style: “It’s something that we all do, but very few of us have our privacy violated….. They got into my Instagram and from my Instagram they uploaded it.”
She also questioned the double standard of the media environment: “If they did it to Kim Kardashian, what can you expect from me?” in reference to her own public exposure.
Wendy revealed that she notified her bosses at La Casa de los Famosos Mexico, fearing sanctions. Instead of punishment, she received understanding: “You’re not the first one it’s happened to, so don’t feel like the protagonist.”
He also ruled out taking legal action for now: “I’m not going to wear out my mind…what I like is to work.”
The Olympia Law and the importance of digital protection
The case reignited the debate on the Olimpia Law in Mexico, legislation that punishes with imprisonment (3 to 6 years) and fines (500 to 1,000 UMA) the dissemination of intimate content without consent.
Although she did not file formal complaints, Wendy acknowledged that there could be legal action against anyone who shares the video without authorization.
These types of cases underscore the vulnerability in handling personal data, especially for digital creators who combine public life and personal content.
