The two go on to have sex while the other cellmate films on a mobile phone.
The friend, who is smoking while recording, says: “Guys we've made history, this is what I'm telling you.”
Later in the video he adds: “This is how we roll in Wandsworth.”
On Saturday, the Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest saying: "A police investigation was launched on 28 June after officers were made aware of a video allegedly filmed inside HMP Wandsworth.
"A woman was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office on 28 June. She has been taken into police custody.
"Enquiries continue. We remain in close contact with the Ministry of Justice.
A Prison Service spokesman previously said: “Staff corruption is not tolerated and the former prison officer allegedly featured in this video has been reported to the police.
“It would be inappropriate to comment further while they investigate.”
The Met Police said: “We have been made aware of a video allegedly filmed inside HMP Wandsworth.
