Julia Wandelt, the 23-year-old Polish woman who has claimed to be missing British toddler Madeleine McCann, now says she has DNA evidence to support her theory. Wandelt first gained widespread attention – and intense backlash – in February 2023 when she began posting on Instagram under the handle @IAmMadeleineMcCann, insisting she was the child who disappeared in Portugal in 2007.
She later appeared on Dr Phil, where she maintained her belief but later apologised for her actions in an interview with the BBC. Despite this, Wandelt has continued posting on the controversial Instagram account, recently sharing fresh DNA test results that she claims link her to the McCann family.
