Secret Whispers in the Green Room: Nicole Wallace and Gabriel Guevara’s Tense 10-Minute Chat – A Glimpse into Hollywood’s Most Awkward Feud?
In the fluorescent-lit limbo of a green room, where stars shed their characters like snakeskin and nerves fray like old scripts, secrets have a way of spilling out. For Nicole Wallace and Gabriel Guevara, the once-inseparable duo behind Prime Video’s steamy Culpables trilogy, such a space became the unlikely stage for a rumored 10-minute heart-to-heart – or heart-to-knife – just days after wrapping Our Fault (Culpa Nuestra, October 16, 2025). Leaked whispers from a Madrid set insider, first bubbling up on Reddit’s r/CulpaMiaTuyaNuestra in late October 2025 and exploding across X by mid-November, paint a picture of hushed urgency: the pair, alone behind closed doors, hashing out years of bottled tension amid the trilogy’s emotional finale. Fans, ever the detectives, are obsessed, zooming in on grainy hallway footage and cryptic post-release interviews for clues of reconciliation – or rupture. But with Guevara’s high-profile romance with María de Nati beaming from every red carpet, the awkwardness? It’s palpable, turning what could be closure into a powder keg of scandal. 💥

The rumor ignited on October 20, 2025, when an anonymous “crew confidant” dropped a bombshell in a now-deleted Reddit thread: “Post-wrap party prep, green room cleared for Nicole and Gabe. Door shut for a solid 10 mins. Voices low, but intense – heard ‘trust’ and ‘boundaries’ through the wall. They emerged… civil, but no hugs. Awkward AF at the afters.” The post, screenshot and shared to X by @GabiColeTea (a gossip aggregator with 50k followers), racked up 15,000 likes in hours, spawning hashtags like #GreenRoomGossip and #CulpaClosure. Fans dissected the timeline: This was mere days after Our Fault‘s emotional hospital climax, where Wallace’s Noah begs Guevara’s Nick for fidelity amid betrayal – a scene mirroring their own rumored rift. “10 minutes? That’s eternity in celeb speak,” one X user quipped in a viral thread. “Either they’re burying the hatchet or sharpening it for María’s back.” Semantic scans of X reveal a frenzy: Over 8,000 posts in the week following, blending shipper swoons with shade-throwing speculation.
To unpack the obsession, context is key – and the Culpables saga is drenched in it. Kicking off with My Fault (Culpa Mía, 2023), the adaptation of Mercedes Ron’s Wattpad phenomenon thrust the then-21-year-old Wallace and 22-year-old Guevara into forbidden-love fever dreams. As step-siblings Noah and Nick, their chemistry was volcanic: rain-drenched kisses, motorcycle chases, and jealous brawls that amassed 100 million social views. Off-screen? Pure gold. Joint Ibiza vacays, flirty IG lives, even a teased “matching ink” that had #GabiCole trending worldwide. “We clicked like puzzle pieces,” Guevara gushed in a 2023 Variety España sit-down, arm around Wallace as she beamed. Fans ate it up, editing montages to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” and flooding fanfic sites with alternate endings where Noah and Nick eloped for real.
But by November 2023, the fairy tale fractured. Wallace’s stealth unfollow of Guevara on IG – timed suspiciously after a De Nati comment on a fan post – ignited the feud. Enter María de Nati, 27, Guevara’s poised co-star from La Mesías, whose relationship went Insta-official in February 2024 with a sun-kissed Madrid snap. Paparazzi pics of them canoodling at film fests clashed hard with lingering GabiCole edits, and whispers swirled: Was De Nati the jealousy catalyst? Reddit’s r/Fauxmoi lit up with tea in December 2024: “Rumors say María laid down the law – no more cozy promo pics with Nicole. Hence the red-carpet dodges.” De Nati, ever the class act, shaded subtly in a March 2025 Elle España profile: “Real connections don’t need filters or fan votes.” Guevara backed her, deleting joint My Fault posts and skipping Your Fault (Culpa Tuya, December 2024) panels – opting instead for De Nati’s Echoes of Silence premiere.
The awkwardness peaked during Your Fault press: A split-screen interview clip, unearthed in an X post from @mendessyx on October 26, 2025, shows Wallace mid-sentence, cutting Guevara off as he interjects – his hand freezing mid-gesture, face a mask of discomfort. “You could cut the tension with a knife,” the poster captioned, amassing 265 likes. Insiders fueled the fire; a r/VindictaRateCelebs thread from January 2025 alleged Guevara body-shamed Wallace during intimate scenes, liking cruel comments and griping about her “not fitting the vibe.” Wallace, vocal on set boundaries after her Raising Voices (2024) abuse advocacy, reportedly teared up between takes, demanding intimacy coordinators. Guevara’s 2024 Venice arrest (cleared of minor-era SA charges) added fuel, with fans theorizing Wallace distanced for her brand. “She unfollowed post-arrest – self-preservation,” one Reddit user posited in r/ChikaPH.
By Our Fault‘s 2025 shoot, the set was a minefield. Ron tweeted neutrality: “Art imitates life, but life’s messier.” Yet, rumors of body doubles for steamy bits and rushed reshoots swirled on r/CulpaMiaTuyaNuestra, with users claiming the happy ending felt “forced, like they couldn’t stand each other.” Enter the green room pivot. The leaked deets suggest a breakthrough: Sources claim Wallace initiated, pulling Guevara aside amid wrap chaos. “It was about clearing the air – the unfollow, the skips, the shipping pressure,” the Reddit OP elaborated in comments. “He apologized for the likes; she for going radio silent. But María’s name dropped like a bomb – ‘boundaries for her sake.'” Fans latched on, with X’s @culpablesachiev posting side-by-sides of their premiere avoidance vs. this “secret summit”: “10 mins to fix 2 years? Or just PR damage control?”
The obsession stems from the what-ifs. Post-release, Our Fault hit 50 million streams, but promo vibes screamed frosty: Separate sofas at the October 2025 Madrid event, Wallace’s laugh echoing hollow in joint Zooms. A November 16 X post from @LaQuisquillossa captured the zeitgeist: “I’d PAY to know what broke GabiCole – from constant pics to zero mentions. Green room tea says it’s fixable… but María? The ultimate plot twist.” Shippers romanticize: “Awkward ’cause it’s real feelings clashing with reality,” one 3k-like reply read. Detractors? “Disrespectful to De Nati – stop forcing it.” De Nati, promoting Intimidad Season 2, posted a cryptic story November 22: “True peace in chosen silences,” liked by Guevara – timing too perfect.
Wallace, 23, has leaned into empowerment: Her November 2025 Un Año y Un Día role as a resilient artist earned Sundance buzz, and she’s teased a feminist docuseries. “Growth means tough talks,” she told LOS40 vaguely, eyes misty – fans swear it’s the green room nod. Guevara, 24, and De Nati jetted to Marbella post-premiere, his IG a lovefest. Yet, in a solo Our Fault reflection on October 16, he mused: “Saying goodbye to Nick? Bittersweet. Some bonds evolve.” A r/BollywoodShaadis thread dissected: “From ‘just friends’ to unfollows – green room was the Hail Mary.”
Critics dismiss the hype as fanfic fodder. Director Domingo González, in a Collider wrap-up, praised their “professional fire” without spilling. Ron, protective, warned on X: “Let actors act – off-screen’s theirs.” But in an era of TikTok sleuths and IG forensics, privacy’s a relic. The 10-minute chat? Perhaps mundane – script notes, post-trilogy plans. Or seismic: A plea for friendship’s salvage amid De Nati’s orbit.
Ultimately, this “secret connection” underscores Culpables‘ cruel irony: A story of love defying odds, starring two who couldn’t. Fans obsess because it mirrors our messiest crushes – electric, elusive, edged with ache. As Wallace steps into solo stardom and Guevara nestles into coupledom, the green room lingers like an unfilmed epilogue. Did they reconnect? Or just politely part? In Hollywood’s echo chamber, the awkwardness says it all: Some sparks fizzle, but the smoke? It haunts. 🎬
