Overview
- Two former employees accuse the singer of sexual assaults, physical violence and humiliating labor conditions at his residences in the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas in 2021.
- Iglesias issued a written statement on Instagram rejecting the claims as “absolutely false,” saying he has never abused, coerced or disrespected any woman.
- The Fiscalía de la Audiencia Nacional has opened pre-procedural diligences, granted the accusers protected-witness status and is examining materials provided to investigators.
- Iglesias has retained the law firm linked to former magistrate José Antonio Choclán to lead his defense, and his wife Miranda Rijnsburger publicly voiced support.
- The complaint follows a multi-year elDiario.es and Univision investigation; the case remains in an early, reserved phase in Spain with no formal charges announced.
