A San Diego ex-wife has admitted spying on her old husband’s new fiancée, including moments when she was undressed.

Rayna Bell pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of eavesdropping using an electronic device after she allegedly livestreamed more than 700 hours from her ex’s Ring cameras which she still had access to, according to NBC San Diego.

The family had no idea the woman was watching them until they started hearing voices, prosecutors said.

The husband’s new fiancée, Acacia Young, soon recognized the voice as the ex-wife. She then removed the camera, but not before the woman listened in on financial and private conversations across weeks.

Young said she found more than a dozen video clips that contained Bell’s voice.

Bell originally denied the Peeping Tom allegations and referred to them in court paperwork as a “smear campaign.”

Young said she was relieved Bell has admitted to watching them.

“Relieved, absolutely relieved, because we’ve been trying to convince everyone, you know, of the truth and now we no longer have to do that. She admitted it herself,” Young said.

The deed drove them to leave their home and replace their Ring cameras.

“We tried so hard to try to restore the peace, the security, the privacy. Once you are robbed of that, it’s almost impossible to try to restore that in your home,” Young added.

Bell will pay restitution to the victims at a later determined amount. She’ll serve one day in custody with credit for time served and one year of probation.

Young is pursuing additional civil action, but admits the scars the privacy-invading deed inflicted on her and the new family.

“You’re always going to feel like they can do it again, or if they had the opportunity, they would do it again,” Young said.
