Influencer Virginia Fonseca has filed a lawsuit in Goiás against journalist Léo Dias and the LeoDias Group, seeking R$ 100,000 in moral damages. The legal action stems from a live broadcast in August where Dias made sexually derogatory comments regarding Fonseca’s departure from Grande Rio.

Fonseca’s legal team contends that the remarks were personal and vulgar, exceeding the limits of journalistic criticism. Although Dias issued an apology admitting he had “erred,” “extrapolated,” and “passed the limit,” his lawyers argue the retraction was insufficient because it was framed conditionally with the phrase “if I exceeded myself.”

The lawsuit also cites a history of conflict between the parties, including previous reports regarding the school attendance of Fonseca’s daughters and alleged threats to release private information.
