Table of Contents
Two women have publicly accused Spanish singer Julio Iglesias of sexual abuse,detailing experiences that allegedly occurred while they lived and worked at his luxury Caribbean homes.the claims, published after a joint inquiry, center on events said to have taken place in 2021 when Iglesias was 77 years old. No charges have been filed, and Iglesias has not publicly commented on the allegations.
The alleged incidents are said to have occurred at Iglesias’ residences in Punta Cana and Lyford Cay. both women were employed in roles that required them to reside on-site, a setup they say fostered dependency and a risky power dynamic.
Accounts from the Accusers
The first claimant, using the pseudonym Rebeca, worked as a domestic employee. She says she was repeatedly summoned to Iglesias’ bedroom late at night and felt unable to refuse. She describes pressure to engage in sexual encounters and a pattern of physical, verbal, and psychological abuse, stating she felt dehumanized and treated “like an object.” She also alleged that these encounters often occurred in the presence of another senior staff member, which could complicate working conditions inside the household.
The second claimant, identified as Laura, served as a physiotherapist. She alleges Iglesias kissed her without consent and touched her breasts against her will. Laura says she endured insults, humiliation, and ongoing harassment during her time with Iglesias, portraying an atmosphere of intimidation and fear.
both women said they feared professional or personal repercussions if they spoke out at the time, pointing to Iglesias’ wealth, influence, and the isolated nature of the residences where they worked.
Journalists behind the report said they repeatedly tried to reach Iglesias and his legal team through various channels but received no comment or response.Attempts to contact the manager responsible for the Punta Cana property were also unsuccessful. A former manager at that residence dismissed the allegations as “nonsense” and praised Iglesias, describing him as generous and respectful toward women.
As of now, there are no criminal charges related to these allegations, and Iglesias has not issued a public statement. The claims remain unproven.
