Actor and model Gil Cuerva has officially addressed the viral s*x video circulating online, confirming that the footage was recorded without his knowledge or permission. In a statement released on Thursday, March 5, 2026, the Kapuso star condemned the viral MMS video scandal as a criminal act and a "serious violation" of his personal privacy.

The controversy erupted earlier this week when a video allegedly featuring Cuerva began spreading across social media platforms and messaging apps.

Recording S*xual Acts Is Illegal in the Philippines

Under the Philippines' Anti-Photo and Video Voyeurism Act of 2009 (Republic Act No. 9995), it is illegal to record or distribute photos or videos of a person performing sexual acts or similar private activities without their written consent. Violators face significant prison time and heavy fines.

Prior to Cuerva’s official statement, his former girlfriend, actress Lexi Gonzales, spoke out in his defense. In a series of posts on Threads, Gonzales slammed those sharing the material, describing the behavior as "repulsive."

"Regardless of what happened between us, people shouldn’t try to ruin a person’s integrity by spreading malicious and illegal content about them," Gonzales wrote.
