Kaitlyn’s emotional story about her leaked private photos just struck a nerve — and now another former WWE star says she knows exactly what that feels like.
After Kaitlyn revealed on her YouTube channel that private images were leaked without her consent — and that fans have even brought printed copies of those images to autograph signings — former WWE and ECW star Shelly Martinez took to Twitter on February 26, 2026 with a response of her own. Martinez made it clear she’s experienced something similar and didn’t mince words about how it feels.
“I know exactly how she feels. Sucks. I’ve refused to sign once and the fan was so s***** about it.”
Her reaction came just a day after Kaitlyn detailed how painful those autograph encounters became for her. While answering a fan question about selling or posting nude content, Kaitlyn first made it clear she doesn’t judge others for their choices.
“I don’t judge anybody. I really don’t. I have no judgment. It’s somebody else’s life — it’s not for me to decide.”
But she drew a hard line when it came to consent being taken away. Kaitlyn explained that private photos were leaked without her permission, calling the experience devastating. She then described how the situation followed her into real life at wrestling conventions.
“Someone accessed photos of me that I did not want public and put them on the internet. It was devastating. It was such an invasion of privacy. It wasn’t my decision. It wasn’t my choice. There have been times at autograph signings where someone has brought a printed-out photo of one of those leaked images for me to sign. It used to really trigger me… It was embarrassing, and it hurt because it wasn’t my decision to share that.”
Now two former WWE stars are saying the quiet part out loud — and it’s not about scandal, it’s about boundaries. If fans can’t separate public persona from private life, perhaps it’s time the rules at these signings change.
Should conventions and promoters step in to prevent situations like this from happening? Let us know what you think.
