Influencer Vanessa Mariposa is seen for first time since she revealed she was 'spiked with date rape drugs and robbed at party'
Influencer and TV star Vanessa Mariposa has broken cover after bravely revealing how she was spiked with a date rape drug and robbed at a party.
The former Sommerhaus der Stars - Summerhouse of the Stars - candidate took to Instagram on Monday to recall the ordeal that left her and a friend fearing for their lives.
On Saturday she was spotted returning to normal life as she took her beloved dog to a beach in Mallorca.
The Austrian fitness model and OnlyFans star arrived at the beach wearing denim shorts and a cropped top, before stripping off to a white bikini.
Taking to social media to share her ordeal and warn others about the danger of the drugs earlier this week, Mariposa said: 'I want to share something serious with you, something that happened to me recently and that every woman needs to hear.'
Mariposa, 32, told her more than 800,000 followers that she and her friend had attended a rooftop party in Mallorca before the evening took a terrifying turn.
The Austrian TV personality claimed they had been at the event for three hours and 'drank a total of three glasses of wine' before the pair suddenly began feeling sick.
'Suddenly, we both felt really, really bad, and I immediately realised something was wrong with me,' she said.
'Both of us started feeling extremely unwell, out of nowhere'.
According to Mariposa, the women did not leave their drinks unattended, but date rape drugs - a substance added to drinks to incapacitate someone - were slipped into their glasses.
The influencer said she vomited several times and was left unable walk on her own.
'I couldn't walk properly, I threw up multiple times and I completely blacked out - I lost all memory of the night. That's when I knew something was really wrong,' she said.
'I really thought I was going to die.'
While under the influence of the date rape substance, Mariposa claimed her Cartier bracelet was stolen along with her phone's SIM card.
This instilled in her the fear that the perpetrator had even worse intentions as she would not have been able to call for safety without her mobile phone.
'And what scares me most is, I simply firmly believe that these disturbed people who did this to us had completely different intentions for us,' she said.
Luckily, Mariposa's partner, Luca, and another friend that were nearby sensed 'that something was wrong' and the men brought the two women back home safely.
The following day, the influencer went to hospital where doctors allegedly found traces of the date rape drug.
'The next day I went immediately to a doctor and also to the hospital to check my whole body and I'm still shocked about what happened,' she said.
Mariposa bravely recalled her ordeal to her huge social media following in a bid to warn other women about the party scam.
'I'm sharing this because I want every woman out there to stay alert. Don't trust anyone blindly. Never leave your drink unattended.
'Something far worse could have happened to us that night. Please take this seriously'.
'I'm just grateful that we were so lucky in this nightmare that nothing worse happened to us physically,' she said.
It comes after Mariposa's suffered a terrifying breast plant rupture in 2023 during her training for a diving competition.
She told German newspaper Bild at the time: 'I was jumping and jumping and at some point I noticed that my chest was really hurting. I felt like I could hardly breathe.
'Luckily, nothing is leaking from the implant, so there's no danger. A procedure like this is incredibly expensive, though; you'll pay €6,000. I think I'll have to pay for it myself.'

Nations League roundup: Wales suffer thrashing by Italy in Euro 2025 send-off
Rhian Wilkinson said Wales would not suffer any trauma in Switzerland after being thrashed 4-1 by Italy at their Euro 2025 send-off. Wilkinson suffered the biggest defeat of her 15-month reign as Italy scored four times in the first half of a Nations League finale in Swansea – the Wales manager calling it a 'little bit of capitulation'. First-half goals from Cristiana Girelli, who struck twice with excellent headers, Elena Linari and Sofia Cantore punished poor Wales defending and secured Italy second place in the group. Jess Fishlock produced some late cheer with a stunning consolation eight minutes from time, scoring off the underside of the crossbar from 35 yards for her 47th Wales goal. 'The first half felt like a punch in the face,' Wilkinson said after Wales' final fixture before their opener against the Netherlands in Lucerne on 5 July 5. 'Let's be clear, that was not a performance that I expect from this team. 'Obviously this is a painful lesson and this is the first time that we've really been exposed. There's no psychological damage, there really isn't. This team punished us for every mistake, and that's something that we talk about as a team. There was more bad news for Wales as goalkeeper Olivia Clark, already sporting a black eye suffered in the Denmark game, was forced off before half-time with a head injury. Clark had required treatment for a head injury 15 minutes earlier after being caught by her own defender Hayley Ladd, but continued before conceding a third goal. Wilkinson said: 'Two head hits in a week is not good, so we decided to pull her. We weren't messing with this and took her out, but I'm not concerned there's any lasting damage.' The Scotland manager, Melissa Andreatta, thought her side were unlucky not to win after they picked up their first point in the Nations League with a 1-1 draw away to the Netherlands. Already-relegated Scotland fell behind when midfielder Jill Roord put the hosts in front – and they were in position for a sixth defeat from a possible six – but Andreatta's side got themselves on level terms courtesy of Kathleen McGovern's 27th-minute equaliser. Scotland were not happy with just the point and pushed for a winning goal after the break, but Netherlands had goalkeeper Daphne van Domselaar to thank for their point after she made a string of saves in the second period. Andreatta was happy with her side's performance, telling BBC Scotland: 'With that performance. We earned that result. Especially when you think about the last 24 hours that we had, I think that showed what this team is about. That was established long before me but they put in a great performance tonight. I was really pleased. I think we did start well then the Netherlands started to dominate. We did a tactical change, got a foothold back in the game and we were unlucky to concede that chance but I think we dominated the second half and were unlucky not to win.'

Northern Ireland seemed happy to protect their result but suffered a scare when Una Rankic hit the goal frame from a free-kick but hung on to grab their chance to climb into League A.

Devastated Big Brother star Imogen Thomas admits she's ‘traumatised' after ‘last' holiday with seriously ill mum
IMOGEN Thomas has called out easyJet for breaking her seriously ill mother's wheelchair on a flight. The 42-year-old star has flown to Italy with her mother Janet, who was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) in 2023. However, after suffering trouble on the flight, her mother's wheelchair is now broken, and the Big Brother star has blamed the airline for their lack of communication and called on them to help her. Sharing a photo of the broken chair, Imogen wrote on Instagram: "We've arrived in Italy but are traumatised. Easyjet have broke my mums electric wheelchair. "It will not fold and is unstable. We are beyond upset and I'm here trying to console my mum as much as possible." Explaining she went on social media as a last resort, Imogen shared her frustration with the airline's customer service system. "I've been on the chat to make a claim now it's disappeared," she said. "Called Easyjet and they told me nothing can be done on the phone only on the live chat. "Now I can't start a new chat as my old one is already open and it doesn't allow me although it's disappeared from my phone." "Please help me Easyjet this is our last holiday abroad as my mum's MSD is progressing," she added. "We are only here for a couple of days and it's ruined. "How on earth can this wheelchair break during transit in the hold? Beyond devastated. We had every reason to be nervous about this flight." When approached for comment, an easyJet representative told The Sun Online: " We are very sorry for the damage caused to Ms. Thomas' mother's wheelchair during transit and for the difficulty she experienced trying to get in touch with us. Big Brother star Imogen Thomas looks incredible as she strips off to black bikini on holiday "We have been in contact with the family to apologise and offer any assistance we can. "We understand how important it is for our customers to feel confident that essential items like this will be well cared for when travelling with us. "We are urgently looking into this with our ground handling partners." Imogen revealed her mother's motor neurone disease in January last year, six months after the initial diagnosis. Imogen went on to explain that she and Janet have decided to speak out publicly for several reasons. The star, who has two daughters of her own, said they are keen to raise awareness of MND and also hope Janet will be able to connect with others "who understand what she is going through". They added they were inspired to go public with the diagnosis after Coronation Street aired a storyline where character Paul Foreman had the disease. Motor Neurone Disease, which currently has no cure, is a rare disease that affects the brain and nerves, and causes weakness that gets worse over time. It slowly robs patients of the ability to walk, talk and eat, although every sufferer is different. 5 5 5

Bomb squad officers evacuate street after man pulls pin on hand grenade in Worcester
BOMB squad officers evacuated a street after a man pulled the pin of a hand grenade. He was showing his friends the Soviet device when it started making noises. So he tossed it in the back of his garden and raised the alarm. Army officers sealed off the road for three hours in Northwick, Worcester, on Sunday before removing the dodgy device. The grenade's owner said: "I pulled the pin and it started making noises. "I noticed something was wrong as soon as I released the safety pin and the spoon sprung off it immediately. "It made some sort of reaction similar to when a fire work fuse is ignited. It was a spilt second, I immediately threw this at the rear of the garden and evacuated the property and called the police. "I was told to be minimum 100 meters away and try to alert neighbours. Police arrived within several minutes. "Around five police cars turned up and about 30 minutes after the RLC bomb squad arrived to investigate. "He firstly x-rayed the grenade to see if it still had its explosive content left. "He's sure it was decommissioned but not certain, so he put it inside what looked to be a heavy-duty explosives box and told me he is going to dispose of it back at base. "This was brought last year August at Malvern antiques fair. "A few people were worried in the street. The area was locked for about three to four hours." The RG-42 World War Two device, which he got for £30 at an antiques fair in Malvern last year, was found to be safe. West Mercia Police said: 'The Explosive Ordnance Disposal team X-rayed the grenade and found it was empty so there was no need for a controlled explosion.'
