Marité Matus apologizes to Camilo Huerta in leaked courtroom audio

Audio recordings released by the TV program Zona de Estrellas captured Marité Matus offering a public apology to Camilo Huerta during a court hearing. Matus, a real‑estate entrepreneur and former spouse of footballer Arturo Vidal, had previously claimed that Huerta, a former reality‑show participant, had a criminal record linked to the Yingo case. In the leaked excerpts she said, “I apologize for the statements made; it was an error based on his past detention,” and explained that her remarks were based on information he had shared with her. The judge asked whether the apologies were accepted, and Huerta’s lawyer confirmed they were. The court accepted the apology, bringing the defamation and slander lawsuit filed by Huerta against Matus to a close.
