AUSTRALIAN HEALTH BLOGGER BUILDS SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS AFTER FAKING SHE HAD CANCER


An Australian Wellness blogger, Belle Gibson who rose to prominence in 2013 built a successful business on claims she survived terminal cancer has told Australia's Women's Weekly she never had the disease.
Her chronicling her battle with cancer on a blog led to her having an App and a recipe book.
Doubts to her claims arose when she failed to deliver a $300,000 donation she promised a charity.
She claimed to be treating her malignant brain cancer with whole foods and alternative therapies and built a large following on social media for her recipes and so-called 'wellness' tips.
Miss Gibson's recipe book has been withdrawn by Penguin in March and her APP removed by Apple from its online store.
