A disgraced Instagram influencer responsible for shaking up Australia’s online wellness community by peddling
A Queensland man, Col Ainscough, lost his wife and daughter – a wellness influencer – to cancer and believes the show uses fictional characters to depict his family, issuing a statement condemning the production.
The show was “insensitive and clearly profit-driven,” Ainscough said.
Netflix did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
Although the real-life story of Gibson’s scam has yet to reach a final resolution, Australian authorities maintain that they are still pursuing justice a decade later.
“Behind the recent dramatization of Ms. Gibson’s actions [are] a very real and long trail of businesses and individuals who have been hurt and swindled,” a Victorian Government spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Digital. “We won’t be giving up and we want justice for those impacted. The fine will not lapse and Ms. Gibson will be pursued by the relevant agencies.”
