Rebel Wilson denies orchestrating a cyber attack and nude photo leak as her defamation battle with Charlotte MacInnes nears a verdict in Australia.
- April 30, 2026
AceShowbiz - Rebel Wilson is currently involved in a high-profile legal dispute in Australia concerning her directorial debut. As the case approaches its conclusion, the actress and filmmaker has firmly denied accusations that she orchestrated a cyber attack leading to the leak of a nude photo of Charlotte MacInnes, star of The Deb.
Charlotte MacInnes is suing Wilson for defamation in Sydney, claiming that the Pitch Perfect star damaged her reputation by alleging that MacInnes had fabricated and then retracted a sexual harassment complaint against The Deb producer Amanda Ghost. This legal battle has taken a serious turn with allegations beyond defamation.
In court documents, MacInnes asserts that Wilson was behind a hack of her Snapchat account. According to MacInnes, this cyber attack resulted in a nude photo being leaked to her contacts, an incident she says happened just days after filing her defamation lawsuit in September of last year.
Wilson has denied these claims, rejecting the suggestion that she had any involvement in the hacking or the subsequent leak of the photo. The allegations have added a new layer of complexity to the ongoing legal proceedings surrounding the defamation case.
As the trial moves forward, Wilson continues to defend her reputation against the accusations made by MacInnes, maintaining that the claims about the nude photo leak are unfounded and part of the broader dispute between the two actresses.
