Despite the setback, Wandelt continues to seek additional proof. She claims to have reached out to forensic DNA expert Dr. Monte Miller for his professional analysis.
According to Wandelt, Dr. Miller told her that Madeleine’s DNA profile contains genetic markers from at least three closely related individuals. She alleges that her own DNA profile matches Madeleine’s “fairly well.”
Wandelt believes this makes sense, as Madeleine’s DNA profile likely includes contributions from multiple relatives, which could result in a partial rather than a complete match.
She further claims that Dr. Miller’s findings indicate a possible familial relationship, such as that of siblings or a parent-child connection.
Additionally, Wandelt points out that Kate McCann once mentioned all three McCann children—Amelie, Sean, and Madeleine—shared a single toothbrush, which she speculates could have affected the DNA evidence.
Based on Dr. Miller’s analysis, she remains convinced that the findings strongly suggest a close genetic connection between herself and Kate and Gerry McCann.
Recent Developments
Wandelt recently claimed to have met with Madeleine’s parents and shared a recorded exchange on Facebook. According to her, Gerry McCann dismissed her claims, expressing skepticism and refusing to discuss the matter further.
In her latest update, Wandelt announced that she is moving forward with her investigation without Gerry and Kate McCann’s involvement.
Posting on Instagram, she wrote: “Since my parents in Poland and Kate and Gerry McCann have refused to take a DNA test, my DNA results were submitted to a world expert who compared them to the DNA found at the Madeleine McCann crime scene in Portugal.”
She also shared contact details for Mr. Surjit Singh Clair, who is handling all media inquiries related to her case.
Despite the controversy surrounding her claims, many people have shown their support in her comment section.
One follower wrote: “Good! This is exactly what you should have done ages ago.”
Another added: “I hope you get the answers you are looking for, Julia.”
“This is amazing to me,” someone else shared. “I’m so happy I’ve been listening to your story!”
