The Culpables trilogy has always thrived on high-stakes drama—stolen kisses amid family feuds, revved engines chasing forbidden love—but few could have predicted the real fireworks would erupt off-camera. As Amazon Prime Video’s Culpa Nuestra (Our Fault) continues to dominate charts with 18 million streams in its first month, whispers from the Madrid set have exploded into a full-blown scandal. Eyewitness accounts describe a blistering 30-minute shouting match between leads Nicole Wallace, 23, and Gabriel Guevara, 24, during a late-night reshoot in early 2024. Insiders claim it marked the third such clash in just two weeks, fueled by bitter disputes over script alterations and simmering rivalries that have plagued their dynamic since the trilogy’s inception. The fallout? A stunned cast, production delays, and fans reeling from the revelation that the on-screen passion might be masking a powder keg of resentment. Has the magic of Noah and Nick finally imploded? 🔥

The confrontation unfolded on a chilly February evening at a nondescript soundstage on the outskirts of Madrid, where the crew was grinding through reshoots for Our Fault‘s pivotal wedding reunion scene—a moment scripted to dredge up jealousy and reconciliation after a four-year hiatus. According to multiple sources speaking anonymously to fan outlets like @culpablesachiev, the blowup ignited when Wallace challenged a last-minute dialogue tweak that she felt undermined Noah’s emotional arc. “Nicole was adamant: ‘This changes everything—it’s not what Mercedes [Ron, the author] intended,'” one crew member recounted in a leaked audio clip circulating on X, timestamped December 2024 but referencing the 2024 filming. Guevara, defending the producers’ vision to amp up Nick’s “brooding heir” intensity, fired back: “It’s always the same with you—you fight every change like it’s personal.” What started as a heated sidebar escalated into a full-throated argument, voices echoing off the faux-church pews as extras and crew froze in awkward silence. “It lasted a solid 30 minutes,” the source added. “Gabriel stormed off set, hoodie up, and a PA had to chase him down the block. Nicole just stood there, arms crossed, tears in her eyes but jaw set.” Production halted for an hour, with director Marta Buchaca reportedly mediating via walkie-talkie.

This wasn’t a one-off; insiders peg it as the third eruption in a grueling 14-day stretch, each more volatile than the last. The first skirmish allegedly occurred during a blocking rehearsal for the film’s stabbing sequence, where Wallace pushed back against a proposed nude-adjacent intimacy cue, citing comfort post her real-life rift with Guevara. “She said it felt exploitative now,” a lighting tech whispered to @m_r_r0601 in a December 2024 thread that amassed 58,000 likes and dissected the “yelling match” with grainy set photos. Clash number two? A script read-through where Guevara lobbied for more “redemptive” lines for Nick, only for Wallace to counter that it romanticized his flaws too neatly—echoing fan critiques of the character’s “toxic redemption arc.” “By the third time, everyone was walking on eggshells,” another insider told PopRant in an October 2025 retrospective, noting how the spats delayed dailies by up to two hours each. The cast, including veterans like Eva Ugarte (who plays the meddlesome Anabel) and Víctor Rasuk (as the volatile William), were left shell-shocked. “We all adore them like siblings,” a supporting actor lamented in a private group chat screenshot leaked to @NiyWallace72248, Wallace’s fan page, which pleaded for empathy: “Despite their argument, no one is a demon here.” Ugarte, spotted consoling Wallace post-clash in a BTS clip, later posted a cryptic IG Story: “Family fights hardest because the love runs deepest. 💔” – deleted within hours.

To grasp the shockwaves, rewind to the trilogy’s fraught genesis. Wallace and Guevara’s paths intertwined in 2018 on El Internado: Las Cumbres, blossoming into the sizzling co-lead roles in 2023’s Culpa Mía (My Fault), where their stepsibling chemistry grossed 100 million views. Off-screen, it was electric: Marbella escapades, “talisman” shoutouts, and rumors of a fling that had #GabiCole trending. But by Culpa Tuya (Your Fault) filming, storm clouds gathered. Wallace’s November 2023 Instagram unfollow—coupled with stormy Stories and a red-carpet evasion—signaled the fracture. Whispers of body-shaming jabs from Guevara during intimacy rehearsals (“Not attractive enough,” per leaks) and jealousy over his ex Nuria’s party crash clashed with his Venice arrest shadow (acquitted, but scarring). Promos turned frosty: segmented interviews, Wallace interrupting Guevara mid-Q&A, her laugh brittle as his posture deflated.

Filming Our Fault in 2024 amplified the tinderbox. Script changes—intended to heighten the pregnancy twist and London exiles—became battlegrounds. “Producers wanted more ‘mature’ tension, but it hit too close to home,” a writer confided in a Hauterrfly review that dinged the film’s “emotional disconnect” as bleeding from real rifts. Rivalries simmered beyond scripts: Wallace’s rising solo star (her Amazon deal for The House of Spirits) versus Guevara’s indie pivot, compounded by his girlfriend María de Nati’s alleged shade—photo purges post-Wallace’s promo glow-ups. “It’s not just creative; it’s ego and unresolved hurt,” @fonderrsol spilled in a November 2024 “truth flood” thread, 16,000 likes strong, threading timelines of “three fights in two weeks” with set-side timestamps. @m_r_r0601’s explainer, backed by “testigos en el rodaje” (set witnesses), detailed the third clash verbatim: “Gabriel le decía a Nicole que siempre era lo mismo con ella,” her post exploding to 58,000 likes and fueling Spanish-language breakdowns.

The cast’s dismay rippled outward. Rasuk, playing the patriarchal William, was overheard joking to break the ice post-argument: “If my on-screen family can’t get along, how do we sell the reunion?” – a quip that landed flat in the heavy air, per a leaked voice note on @culpablesachiev. Ugarte and Marta Hazas (Lionel’s wife) formed an impromptu “sister squad” for Wallace, sharing wine-fueled vents away from mics, while male co-stars rallied around Guevara with pickup basketball games to “cool the fire.” “The whole vibe shifted—laughs turned to whispers,” a grip operator told @ANNAGURGUI, who defended Wallace’s boundaries in a viral December 2024 video: “With what she’s professional about, a simple breakup wouldn’t cause this tension. It’s deeper.” Even director Buchaca, praised for her “nuanced” handling in Collider chats, admitted in a post-release podcast: “We leaned into the rawness—it made the confrontations electric, but at a cost.”

X has devolved into a warzone of speculation. Shippers cling to hope: @stacyleister’s November 2025 clip debunked “no chemistry” myths—”That’s a lie; the fights fueled the fire on screen”—garnering 11 likes but sparking debates on “method madness.” Cynics amplify the toxicity: @LaQuisquillossa’s thread on “rivalry roots” (Guevara’s “connections” vs. Wallace’s “hustle”) hit 3,000 likes, while @NiyWallace72248’s pleas—”Nobody knows their story; stop the insults”—echo across posts, tallying 0-9 likes amid flame wars. Reddit’s r/Culpables dissected the “third clash” as “PR sabotage,” with 200 upvotes on theories tying it to de Nati’s jealousy. “Actors thinking they’re above production,” @fcburkhart sniped in November 2024, 2,400 likes slamming the duo’s “personal issues” spilling over—yet praising their on-screen save. A Prime Video insider vid, captioned “confirmations” by @culpablesachiev, looped crew testimonies: “It was explosive, but they delivered gold.”

Critics see irony in the chaos. Our Fault‘s trailer teases “intense confrontation and passionate reconciliation,” per PopRant—art imitating the artists’ life in uncanny sync. Reviews laud the “charged” hospital gaze (as dissected in our prior coverage) but fault the “uneven heat,” blaming off-set static. Wallace, in a Yahoo reflection, hinted at the toll: “Filming the evolution was… cathartic, but exhausting.” Guevara, clipped in indies promo, added: “Vulnerability means facing the mess—on and off.” That November 14 café huddle? Now retrofitted as “clash cooldown,” with @Christi16930994 speculating: “Third fight? This meeting screams therapy.”

For a cast once bonded like the Leisters, the shock lingers. “We were family—now it’s fractured,” one extra posted anonymously. Yet, as Our Fault climbs (projected 25 million by December), the clashes birthed a rawness fans crave. Improv sparks, like their unscripted couch plea (@clauhsstvr’s clip, 322 likes), prove the fire endures. Will this shocker heal or shatter? In Culpables lore, faults forge fate. For Wallace and Guevara, the set’s echoes suggest the drama’s just beginning.
