Beéle has been hit with a lawsuit from his ex-girlfriend, Venezuelan influencer Isabella Ladera, claiming the Colombian pop star is responsible for leaking their sex tape and that this illegal conduct caused her serious emotional harm.
The lawsuit, filed by Ladera on Monday (Sept. 15) and obtained by Billboard, is the latest in a messy feud between the influencer and Beéle (Brandon de Jesús López Orozco) since a video of the now-exes having sex went viral on Sept. 7. Ladera publicly accused Beéle of leaking the tape, while Beéle’s reps denied that he was the source of the leak and said the singer is “also a victim” in this situation.

Ladera is now doubling down on blaming Beéle for the leak, saying in the lawsuit that he either intentionally published the video online or shared it with someone else who did the same.
“Only two people had the videos, and Ladera had already erased them almost a year and a half before,” wrote Ladera’s lawyers from the Miami firm Hachar Law Group. “The only other person who Ladera knew had the videos, Beéle, had made his intentions clear when he refused to erase them when Ladera requested that he do so.”
Ladera is suing Beéle for invasion of privacy, sexual cyberharassment, intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligence. She’s seeking damages that “far exceed” the minimum threshold of $50,000, writing that she suffered “shame, humiliation and mental anguish as a result of the public disclosure of her private affairs and activities.”
Beéle’s reps did not immediately return a request for comment on Wednesday (Sept. 17).
The nine-page lawsuit chronicles Ladera and Beéle’s relationship, which began as an Instagram friendship in 2023 and later turned romantic. Ladera says she felt “a sense of security and comfort that she had met someone who actually could be the proverbial ‘One.’”
According to Ladera, it was Beéle who requested that they record their sexual interactions. Ladera says she “never thought that these videos would ever be shared with anyone, let alone be published to the world, as they ultimately were.”
Ladera claims that in 2024, she deleted all the videos in her possession and asked Beéle to do the same. Beéle refused, Ladera says, and “instead questioned her trust in him.”
“Little did she know that the trust she had would one day be broken,” the lawsuit reads.
The couple split this past March, the lawsuit says, “after numerous controversies and rumors” that were “mostly fueled by non-credible internet parasites.”
Ladera claims the issue of the sex tape first arose in June, when two people named Melany Fernandez and Osvaldo Villalobos approached her with screenshots from one of the couple’s videos. These individuals allegedly told Ladera that the screenshots had been shared with them and warned that the full video would be released soon.
Ladera says her management team contacted Beéle’s management about this, and she believed the problem had been resolved. But it was just beginning.
“Shockingly, on September 7, 2025, one of the videos was leaked through a WhatsApp account,” reads the lawsuit. “The video went viral, and for Ladera the earth stood still.”
Ladera took to Instagram to address the issue on Sept. 8, writing in a lengthy post that Beéle was the source of the leak and that it was “one of the cruelest betrayals” she has ever experienced. Ladera wrote that she and Beéle were the only two people with access to the tape, and that the publication “constitutes a form of violence against women.”
On Sept. 9, Beéle shared a statement of his own on Instagram denying that he was the source and saying the leak had also harmed him. That post, which has since been deleted, said Beéle’s lawyers were taking steps to get the videos taken down.
“Beéle is also a victim of the non-consensual exposure of his private life,” read the now-deleted statement from law firms Víctor Mosquera Marín Abogados and DMR Law LLC. “We reject all forms of violence and will continue to pursue legal channels to ensure the comprehensive defense of his rights.”
