The young woman who claimed to be Madeleine McCann has broken her silence after receiving DNA results.
Julia Wendell, who is also known as Julia Wendalt and Faustyna, went viral after creating an account online called 'I am Madeleine McCann' and said she thought she could be the missing girl who disappeared in 2007.
Since making headlines, a self professed physic Dr Fia Johansson became her spokesperson and said she was 'investigating' the case, while taking her to the US 'for safety'.

However, after DNA results have come back stating that Julia is nearly 100 per cent Polish, Julia has returned to her native country to stay with her father, and made a statement on a new Instagram account under the handle 'Am I Julia Wendalt'.
The 21-year-old has slammed Dr Johansson, accusing the 40 year old of using her in a long update online.
She alleged: “When I first met Fia for the first time I thought she wanted to help me,” she wrote. “Now I know she wants only new followers, new clients."
She added: “And I have to say I never said I am Madeleine. I always said that I believe I could be Madeleine."
"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 said many times when I was younger that we have roots in Germany and Holland.
"So I don’t understand anything now. Fia said that I am Polish with Russian and Lithuanian but family said that I am Polish with German and Holland so what is the real truth?”
Julia defended herself: "I am not delusional and crazy. You can judge all of this things again and try to create another new opinion. I never wanted publicity. I didn’t do all of this for attention or music career."
Responding to the 21-year-old's accusations, Dr Johansson wrote: "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."
