The 30-year-old appeared at Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court today charged with misconduct in public office.
She spoke only to confirm her name, date of birth and address during the hearing.
The court was told that De Sousa Abreu was arrested at Heathrow Airport where she was due to catch a flight to Madrid.
She was said to have informed the prison of her travel plans.
The mum has been released on bail on the condition that she does not enter any UK port of call and will be subject to a curfew between 7pm and 9am.
She will next appear at Isleworth Crown Court on July 29 for a plea hearing.
The indictment states that between June 26 and 28, the prison officer “deliberately and without reasonable excuse or justification behaved improperly in a manner that represents an abuse of the public’s trust in the official by engaging in a sexual act with a prisoner in the prison cell.”
Metohia Police launched an investigation on Friday “after officers were made aware of a video allegedly taken inside HMP Wandsworth”.
It shows a prison officer having sex with a prisoner.
De Sousa Abreu was arrested the same day on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
The married woman is originally from Brazil and shares an OnlyFans account with her husband.
A Prison Service spokesman said: “Corruption of staff is not tolerated and the former prison officer who allegedly appears in this video has been reported to the police.
“It would be inappropriate to comment further while they investigate.”
