It’s been said that a woman who claims she’s Madeleine McCann has said that she will take a DNA test shortly.
Julia Wendell, from Poland, went viral after creating an Instagram account named @iammadeleinemcann, saying she started wondering if she was Maddie a few months ago after hearing something from her grandma.
The young woman also claims to have a freckle on her leg and a speck in her eye in the same places as Madeleine.
She’s 21 years old but believes her age could be wrong. Maddie was born in May 2003, meaning that she would now be 19 years old.
However, German investigators believe that Maddie, who vanished during a family break in Portugal in 2007, was killed by a sex predator Christian Brueckner, but despite extensive searches and countless police investigations, the child’s body has never been discovered.
In recent months, people have taken to social media as part of a trend to show their similarities to Maddie.
The most recent unsupported claims, made on TikTok and Instagram, have seen Ms Wendell comparing her images to those of Maddie as proof that they’re the same individual.
She now alleges that the McCanns have approached her to take a DNA test, and hopes to be in direct contact with them in the coming days.
The woman claimed on her Instagram story that she spoke with someone from Madelein’s family and that she will have the chance to talk with Madeleine’s parents and that a DNA would be done soon.
Meanwhile, a source close to the McCanns told a newspaper outlet that the family are taking no chances, and that they’re willing to look at all leads, and that it was essential that they look at all of the factors, and that the girl does look similar, there was no disputing that, and that if what she says is true, there is every chance it could be her, and that all adds up.
In a post published, the woman claims to have talked to someone who was alleged to be Madeleine’s cousin, and who told her she could have a chance to speak to Kate and Gerry McCann to arrange a DNA test, but these claims haven’t yet been addressed by Madeleine’s family.
Her Instagram bio, on a profile that has now accumulated more than 200,000 followers, and says that she thinks she could be Madeleine and that she needs a DNA test.
Is she Madeleine? Who knows, but to be frank I don’t believe she looks anything like her, but who am I to judge, but we do need the truth. Or is she just some fruitloop that’s opened up some social media instead of attempting to contact the parents discreetly? Although it would be wonderful if it were true, but we shall have to wait to find out.
