Naomi Campbell claims she is unaware of financial misconduct at charity | Naomi Campbell

Supermodel Naomi Campbell claims she is ignorant of the widespread financial misconduct and mismanagement of the anti-poverty fashion charity she founded and has been on the board for more than five years.

Campbell was disqualified in a charity in May 2024 after a devastating watchdog report revealed a series of administrative chaos, abuse of charitable funds and chaotic record keeping.

Her charity “Relief Fashion” spent tens of thousands of pounds on luxury hotel rooms, flights, spa treatments, personal safety and cigarettes for Campbell, while only a small percentage of the donations it attracted.

Campbell, 54, tried to overturn a five-year ban imposed by the charity committee on her, claiming she was the victim of a trustee’s “unanimous deception” against her, who actually kept her dark on running charity and the committee intends to ban her.

Campbell's lawyer said she was a “victim of fraud and forgery” that included a fake email account that she accused the former relief trustee Bianca Hurmic ( Bianka Hellmich once requisitioned her fashion during her conversations with lawyers.

Hellmich told The Guardian earlier this week that the allegations “absolutely no truth.” Halemic, who has been disqualified for nine years, and no third former trustee Veronica Chou has called for their disqualification.

Charity law experts say charity courts rarely overturn disqualification orders, and even if Campbell can prove using a fake email account, it may not be enough to reverse the committee’s decision.

Liz Brownsell, head of the charity at the law firm Birketts, said: “Naomi Campbell publicly admitted that she was not involved in running the charity and that her duties failed. . The role of a charity trustee cannot be passive and failing to take action may constitute a mismanagement of the management of the charity.

“Ultimately, the court’s decision on her disqualification will be based on how she performs the duties of the trustee and whether the court agrees to the committee’s assessment of her inappropriate fit as a charitable trustee.”

In court Friday, she and the committee's attorneys applied for document disclosure. Campbell's attorneys failed to force the committee to disclose its case files.

He told the court: “It was Ms. Campbell's case, because of her deception against her…she was disqualified and had no chance to respond to the disqualification reasons without seeing the documents the committee relied on. Take action.”

Faisel Sadiq told the court on Friday that Campbell's position was “not a criticism committee” but to say she was a victim of fraud, in short, her case was her “Nothing about this” and is a “figurehead”.

Campbell said earlier this week that she has been “working to reveal the facts” since the commission was published in September and that she “never worked charitable for personal gain, nor would I do so.”
