Presenter Cariúcha and doctor Danilo Bravo were involved in a scuffle in the early hours of January 4 in Balneário Camboriú, with mutual accusations of physical aggression. Both filed police reports and shared their versions on social media. The case gained attention after videos posted and deleted by Cariúcha.
The scuffle between SBT presenter Cariúcha and celebrity doctor Danilo Bravo took place in the early hours of January 4, 2025, at a nightclub in Balneário Camboriú, Santa Catarina. The two were romantically involved, but a disagreement escalated into physical aggression, according to conflicting accounts from each side.
Cariúcha, through a statement signed by her lawyer Diego Figueiredo, claimed to be the victim. She described having her belongings withheld, documents blocked, and being denied entry to the condominium, leaving her vulnerable on the street without money, cards, or phone battery. "The presenter Cariúcha was the victim. It was she who had her belongings restricted," the statement says. She denied threats and highlighted a video showing a kiss between them, indicating initial affection. Cariúcha filed a police report and plans a body examination, criticizing the role reversal that labels women as "unbalanced".
Danilo Bravo, in an official note, rebutted the accusations, calling them false and feeling "outraged". He alleged that Cariúcha tried to kiss him forcefully upon refusal, threatened to expose him, and scratched him, causing bruises. "Cariúcha assaulted me and then used her social media to paint me as the aggressor," he wrote. The doctor showed scratches on his arms in a video where he flees from her on the street and filed a police report at the Balneário Camboriú Civil Police Station, scheduling an IML exam for January 5. He has videos and security camera footage to prove his version and plans to sue Cariúcha for slander, defamation, and bodily injury, as well as media outlets.
Both deleted or limited initial content, but the case remains under police investigation, with additional images from the nightclub, hotel, and pool mentioned as potential evidence. The dispute highlights tensions in public relationships and the role of social media in controversies.
