Content creator Carla Campos has denied claims that she cheated on her fiancé Víctor Caballero after undercover television footage surfaced showing her with Alonso Grimaldo.
The controversial broadcast, aired on the Peruvian entertainment program hosted by Magaly Medina, featured images alleging that Campos kissed Grimaldo, an influencer known online as Grimmy. The broadcast triggered immediate infidelity accusations against Campos and prompted Caballero to publicly announce the suspension of the couple's upcoming wedding, sparking widespread reaction across social media platforms.
The scandal deepened after Grimaldo released a public statement hinting that a kiss had taken place between them. Hours later, Campos responded by publishing a video on Instagram to break her silence, denying any intimate contact and addressing her fiancé directly.
Response to infidelity claims
In her video statement, Campos categorically rejected claims of a kiss, insisting that her relationship with Grimaldo has always been strictly platonic. She explained that their friendship was so close that she regarded Grimaldo as a sister rather than a romantic partner.
While Campos acknowledged that maintaining such intense closeness with Grimaldo was inappropriate given her engagement to Caballero, she accused her fiancé of sensationalizing the incident for public attention. Campos said Caballero was fully aware of the truth behind the video but chose to turn the controversy into a media spectacle, labeling him a mercenary whose behavior should come as no surprise to his audience.
Campos further clarified that Caballero was well aware of Grimaldo long before the footage was broadcast. She noted that she regularly talked to Caballero about Grimaldo and that her fiancé was fully informed of their long-standing friendship.
Background on the controversy
