The footage was seen by complete strangers and the woman’s own mum and teenage brother.
A Hull woman was left hurt and humiliated after two of her former friends shared a video of her having sex in a Facebook group chat – which was seen by complete strangers as well as her own mum and younger brother.
Lauren Fowler, 20, and Aimee Lawson, 31, had fallen out with their victim and wanted revenge, Hull Magistrates' Court heard on Wednesday.
The pair added her to a Facebook group chat which had people in it who she didn't know, as well as her own mum, brother and ex partner's family, before posting the video of her having sex.

Prosecuting, Miss Markham said the offence took place between May 8 and May 9, 2021.
She said: "The victim was added into the chat and was called a s*** and w*** and received threats that the women would attend her address if she didn't reply."
The victim said in a personal statement: "I feel embarrassed, humiliated and angry.
"I believe this is going to cause further problems in the future."
She said she was shocked Fowler "still had those pictures" and was "more shocked" that Lawson also seemed to have access to them.
Fowler of Waveney Road, Hull, and Lawson of St George's Road, Hull, both pleaded guilty to disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress.
In mitigation, Lawson's solicitor made reference to her early guilty plea and said he didn't think it was "a point of contention that perhaps Miss Lawson forms the lesser part in this matter".
The solicitor acting for Fowler said she accepted "she should not have done it".
Both defendants were on bail at the time for common assault, which they subsequently had received community orders for.
Presiding chair magistrates Mr Coates announced that the case would proceed to Hull Crown Court on February 23 as the magistrates did not feel they had sufficient sentencing powers based on what they had heard.
Both women were granted unconditional bail.
