The actress sues director Leonardo Nogueira, husband of Giovanna Antonelli, for having promised a role in the next seven o’clock telenovela on Globo in exchange for sex.
After having his name involved in an accusation of sexual harassment, the television director Leonardo Nogueira, husband of the actress Giovanna Antonelli, made himself known through an official statement published on Instagram earlier this Wednesday (22). In the text, he disputes the version presented by the journalist and presenter of “Balanço Geral SP”, Fabíola Reipert, who claimed to have had access to the trial underway at the Justice of Rio de Janeiro.
“Friends, I have been the victim of a crime in which they tried to extort me. All legal measures have been taken since the incident, including the arrest of the person involved. The complaint was made by me, so to speak. Currently the criminal trial it’s in the secret of justice,” he said.
“Today the information arrived in a lying, partisan and malicious way in the press. Therefore, I come to speak as transparently as I have always been, to avoid further mistakes and fake news. I thank the affection of friends and my family, my dearest eldest, who sticks together like she always has,” she added.
understand the case
Leonardo Nogueira would have promised a role in “Fuzuê”, the next seven o’clock telenovela on Globo, in exchange for sex. The actress who allegedly brought the accusation against the director did not reveal her name, but has opened a civil case in the 2nd family court of the Regional da Barra da Tijuca, in Rio de Janeiro. She is seeking R $ 2 million in compensation for moral damage.
In the action, the actress attached printouts of conversations with Leonardo in a messaging application. The two allegedly met behind the scenes of “Flor do Caribe” (2013), but they only got closer again in December 2021. They related for the first time in the same month, in a hotel in São Paulo, and the story of love lasted about a year.
What does Globe say?
Globo said Leonardo Nogueira had requested leave for health reasons, but did not comment on the allegations.
“Leonardo Nogueira has requested leave for health reasons, with medical leave from the INSS. Globo does not comment on issues related to compliance and takes the opportunity to reiterate that it maintains a Code of Ethics, which must be followed by all its employees, and an Ombudsman ready to receive any reports of violations of the Code. Each report is carefully examined as soon as the company becomes aware of it, and the necessary measures are taken,” the broadcaster said.
