Patricia Krentcil, better known as “Tan Mom,” claims she was stopped by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents who questioned whether she was an American citizen because of her deeply tanned appearance. The New Jersey woman described the alleged encounter on a recent episode of her Light. Tan. Up. with Tan Mom & Adam Barta podcast on YouTube.
The 58-year-old claimed she had been eating at a restaurant with friends, and as they were done eating, the “ICE people stopped” her. According to her account, they asked whether she was a U.S. citizen, leaving her stunned by the interaction.
