Chloe, who featured on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018, says: "In 2017 I was booked for a model shoot in Italy by my agent at the time. But it turned out it wasn't a shoot, it was a set-up. As I walked into the studio, two masked men came from behind me in balaclavas, injected me with ketamine and I was immediately knocked out and taken to a remote farmhouse hours away from Milan.
"I woke up during the transportation in a duffle bag in the boot of car, gagged and handcuffed and was held captive for six days. Upon arrival at the farmhouse, I was told I was kidnapped for sex trafficking.”
Chloe, played by Nadia Parkes in the six-part series, faced a backlash, with some even claiming she'd made the whole thing up. Talking about her hopes for the series, writer Georgia Lester says: "Most importantly for me, my ambition has always been to vindicate Chloe in the eyes of the people who didn't believe her, and to help people understand why she behaved the way she did. I think it's important to understand that she was coerced, and being compliant saved her life."
