Supermodel Naomi Campbell has accused the ex-wife of a Russian top manager, Bianca Hellmick, of stealing funds for charity. The model told the Financial Times about this.
According to Campbell, she met Hellmick in London, where she worked as a lawyer at Gherson Solicitors after her divorce. At that time, Naomi Campbell broke up with Vladislav Doronin and was looking for a way to get her things back from Moscow. Bianca Hellmick helped the model, then selected nannies for her children and offered to open a representative office of the model’s foundation in the UK.
However, the funds received into the accounts of the charity foundation did not go to Ebola patients and earthquake victims, but disappeared. When law enforcement agencies became interested in the situation, Bianca Hellmick created a fake Campbell account on her email, removing one letter from the model’s name in the address, and corresponded with lawyers on her behalf.
In response to these allegations, Bianca Hellmich claimed that Naomi Campbell was trying to shift the blame onto her.
In February, Naomi Campbell made her first slanderous claim over the embezzlement allegations.
