Julio Iglesias denies physical and sexual assault allegations made against him by two former employees.
ElDiario.es and Univision Noticias published a joint interview of two women accusing the Spanish singer of assaulting them while working as live-in employees at his Caribbean homes.
The alleged assaults occurred between January 2021 and October 2021, according to The Associated Press.
Iglesias called the allegations "absolutely false" in a statement posted on Instagram.
"With deep regret, I respond to the accusations made by two people who previously worked at my home. I deny having abused, coerced or disrespected any woman. These accusations are absolutely false and cause me great sadness," Iglesias's statement, originally posted in Spanish, began.
"I had never experienced such malice, but I still have the strength for people to know the full truth and to defend my dignity against such a serious affront."
"These accusations are absolutely false and cause me great sadness."

The "Spanish Girl" singer thanked the "many dear people who have sent me messages of affection and loyalty."
"I have felt great comfort in them," Iglesias wrote.
The Spanish prosecutors’ office told The Associated Press it received formal allegations against Iglesias by an anonymous person Jan. 5.
Women's Link Worldwide, a nonprofit organization, is representing the two accusers. The women are going by the pseudonyms Rebecca and Laura.
