Sunday, September 8, 2024 - Anna Delvey, the convicted con artist known for posing as an heiress to swindle over $250,000, has demanded an apology from ABC’s “The View,” after co-host Whoopi Goldberg made an erroneous statement about her case on Thursday’s show.
The hosts of "The View" criticized Delvey and ABC
for casting her on the reality competition show “Dancing With the Stars,” with
Goldberg remarking, “She still owes people money. I don’t understand why she
gets to stay [in the US]!”
In a statement to Page Six on Friday,
Delvey refuted the claim, stating, “While you are entitled to your own
opinions, you should at least get your facts straight. I served my time and
paid everyone back in full three-plus years ago. Looking forward to your on-air
correction. Stay nasty ladies, but don’t forget to vote Sept. 17!”
Delvey, who was released from prison in February 2021 and
remains under house arrest while awaiting an immigration decision, was granted
special permission to travel to Los Angeles to compete on DWTS. She
will perform with her dance partner, Ezra Sosa while wearing her ankle monitor.
Delvey reportedly paid back much of the stolen money using
earnings from Netflix’s hit series “Inventing Anna,” which chronicled her
infamous rise and fall.
