My Fault: London has gained a lot of attention in the past week but as viewers drool over the sunny filming locations, one of the scenes was actually set on this Spanish island hotspot
My Fault: London, the British adaptation of the popular Spanish trilogy Culpables has taken the internet by storm, captivating audiences with its compelling storyline and characters.
The first film in the series has already generated immense buzz, with fans praising its intense romance and gripping drama. While the film is set in the UK capital, viewers may be surprised to learn that one particular scene was actually filmed somewhere else.
My Fault: London is a thrilling romantic drama that follows the story of 18-year-old Noah (Asha Banks), who moves from Florida to London with her mother after she marries a wealthy British man. Adjusting to a new life in a foreign country is already hard, but things become even more complicated when Noah meets her stepbrother, Nick (Matthew Broome).
Despite their best efforts, an undeniable attraction forms between them, leading to forbidden romance. On top of this, Noah is also forced to confront her past, as her abusive father reappears, threatening the safety of her newfound family.
To avoid major spoilers for those who have yet to watch the film, there is one notable scene involving Nick’s birthday, where he and his friends, including Noah, go on a trip to Ibiza, as a gift from his father. However, what many viewers don’t realise is that this scene wasn’t actually filmed in the famous Balearic Islands. Instead, the production team opted for the stunning shores of Tenerife, an entirely different island located on the opposite side of Spain.
According to reports, filming in the UK took place during the winter months, meaning that shooting summer scenes in London would have been impractical. Tenerife’s warm, year-round climate made it the ideal location to create an authentic summer atmosphere.
It’s also been revealed that the scenes set in Florida were also filmed in Spain, as this was more convenient for the production team. Despite these location changes, it still captured the illusion of both sunny Florida and Ibiza.
Released on 13th February 2025, My Fault: London has quickly become a global sensation. The English-language adaptation of My Fault (Culpa Mía) has been welcomed with positive reviews, with many fans claiming it is “better than the original.” Just days after its release, the film climbed to the top of Prime Video’s streaming charts, becoming the number-one most-watched movie in both the US and the UK.
The Culpables phenomenon, written by Spanish author Mercedes Ron, consists of three books: Culpa Mía, Culpa Tuya, and Culpa Nuestra, which translate to My Fault, Your Fault, and Our Fault in English. The Spanish film adaptations of the first two books have already been released, while the third and final instalment is expected to be released later this year.
Naturally, fans are eager for My Fault: London to follow with its own sequels. Given the overwhelming popularity of the first film, it seems highly likely that fans will soon see the continuation of Noah and Nick’s story.
