Fake Madeleine McCann breaks silence on DNA test as she returns to social media
The woman who made headlines across the world for claiming to be missing girl Madeleine McCann has spoken out for the first time since a DNA test revealed she is not the daughter of Gerry and Kate McCann.
Julia Wendell garnered a huge social media following after creating the "I am Madeleine McCann" account, telling the world that she believed herself to be the young British girl who went missing in 2007.
After spending weeks claiming to have been abducted as a child, even going as far as to escape her native Poland and go to the California home of Dr. Fia Johansson, also known as the Persian Medium, the results proved she is Polish.

But despite Dr. Johansson’s massive involvement in Julia’s case, the 21-year-old has attacked her, claiming that the 40-year-old was simply using her to grow her own following and to attract more business as a psychic "private investigator", the Mirror reported.
From a new account called "Am I Julia Wendalt", using a different version of her surname she is known to use, he said: “When I first met Fia for the first time I thought she wanted to help me.
“Now I know she wants only new followers, new clients.”
Despite a test revealing her DNA did not match Gerry and Kate McCann, she disputed the evidence.
She said: "We made ancestry DNA test, a few hours ago Fia sent me results but not from ancestry, she sent results from another platform. I found out what type of blood group I have.

"And it doesn’t match to my parents’ blood group. My family from mother (sic) said many times when I was younger that we have roots in Germany and Holland."
She also responded to backlash she faced after people criticised her for capitalising on the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, saying: “I have to say I never said I am Madeleine. I always said that I believe I could be Madeleine.
"I never wanted publicity. I didn’t do all of this for attention or music career."
Responding to Julia’s accusations, Dr Fia said: "Julia was provided all the information about her DNA results to check for herself.

"Although Julia is disappointed about this revelation and the spotlight may fade away, the truth as represented in the results speaks to perhaps an unwelcomed new reality.
"I tried to help her find her true identity as she wished, and through this journey I was hoping to provide her comfort with her new reality.
"Despite her recent postings, I wish her a well and happy life.”
