Anna Delvey, a German con artist and fraudster, is in the spotlight for her participation in the upcoming Season 33 of Dancing with the Stars.
Netizens speculated that she was asked for the reality show only because Gypsy Rose Blanchard got pregnant.
Highlights
- Anna Delvey isn’t pregnant and will appear with professional dancer Ezra Sosa in Season 33 of Dancing with the Stars.
- She will compete in the dancing show wearing her ICE-mandated ankle monitor.
- She dated Hunter Lee Soik for two years until he moved to the United Arab Emirates.
Anna posed as a wealthy heiress in 2013 to access upper-class New York social and art scenes, but she was born to working-class parents in the Soviet Union.
She moved with her parents from Russia to Germany at 6 in 2007. Later, she lived in London and Paris before relocating to New York City in 2013.
She interned for the French fashion magazine, Purple but planned to found the Anna Delvey Foundation, an art foundation and private members’ club.
Thus, Anna created fake financial documents of having a multi-million-euro trust fund and forged multiple wire transfer confirmations.
She tricked banks, realtors, and acquaintances into paying out cash, which she used to live her lavish lifestyle. NYPD arrested her with the help of her former friend Rachel DeLoache Williams in 2017.
