Michelle Vieth seeks legal protection against Héctor Soberón

Actress Michelle Vieth has requested urgent judicial protection measures against her former partner, actor Héctor Soberón, before a control judge of the Superior Court of Justice of Mexico City. Her legal team, Jauregui Abogados, alleges that Soberón’s ongoing public statements regarding an intimate video leaked over two decades ago constitute gender, digital, and media violence.

The legal petition seeks to halt Soberón’s comments on social media platforms and in interviews, which the defense argues continue to expose Vieth’s private life and subject her to constant re-victimization. The conflict stems from 2004, when an intimate video involving Vieth was circulated without her authorization. While Vieth has linked Soberón to the diffusion of the material, the actor has denied involvement and disputed his identity in the recording.

Vieth has also called on media outlets to refrain from disseminating content related to the alleged violence. Following the legal request, Soberón posted a message on Instagram regarding truth and lies, though he did not mention Vieth by name.
