The woman who is claiming to be Madeleine McCann has revealed what she told the girl's mother when she allegedly spoke to her on the phone.

It has been over 17 years since the three-year-old went missing from that holiday apartment complex in Portugal.

The Metropolitan Police has since spent £13.2 million investigating the high-profile case, which saw Madeleine disappear from a room belonging to the Praia da Luz resort in Portugal in May 2007.

She was last seen in a bedroom with her younger twin siblings Sean and Amelie, while parents Kate and Gerry McCann were at a nearby restaurant with friends.

Following the release of various documentaries and years of speculation, a woman who alternatively goes by Julia Wandelt, Julia Faustyna and Julia Wendell claimed last year that she was the missing girl.

Recalling the time she was allegedly 'kidnapped', she told the Break The Ice podcast: "I remember being taken, I remember being abused before being taken, and I remember that I was put into the car.

"I remember that someone used something like a syringe to put something [in] my body.

"I remember that someone gave me for the window to someone, to a man who had, and I don't remember the face, I only remember that he had dark hair and that he was slim and tanned skin."

Wandelt also went on to reveal that she allegedly called up Madeleine's parents, whom she believes to be her real parents, to do a DNA test.

"I called Kate's number, I called and once Kate answered the call and she said only 'hello' and she hung up when I asked her if she could do the test with me," she said.

"And the second time I called her, Gerry answered the call, he was kind in the beginning and then when he heard my voice, he said that I called the wrong number.

"The main question I have here is why have they not still reported me if it's annoying for them, if they think that I'm destroying their names or the name of Madeleine or their family?

"Why have they not reported me to the police? Why have they never told me to stop?

"Why has David Payne [a friend of the McCanns] not blocked my number? Why does he still read my messages I sent to him. Why did he speak with me three minutes and he sounded like he was so sad and sorry?"

This comes after the results of DNA test showed that Wandelt was '100 percent from Poland'.

During a 2023 episode of Dr Phil, Dr Fia Johansson, her representative and psychic medium, said that she's 'a small percentage of Lithuanian and Russian, but the test results show she is Polish'.

Dr Johansson went on to reveal that Wandelt's mother is definitely her mother, adding: "They’re not 100 percent but they believe that Julia’s mum is in fact her mum. They’re questioning her father’s side."
