She claims that she did not know who was “eating” money in five-star hotels. What the Charities Commission investigation revealed
Another scandal comes to upset the showbiz. This time, the protagonist is the “black gazelle” of the catwalk, Naomi Campbell. According to reports in the international press, but also after her own admission, serious mismanagement of funds was revealed in the charitable foundation of which she was the head.
According to reports, after an investigation by the Charities Commission, it appears that Naomi was “eating” with… golden spoons in five-star hotels and spas with her foundation’s money! Campbell “broke” her silence, claiming ignorance of what was going on at the Fashion For Relief charity she founded in 2005.
“We are also looking into it as I had no control over the institution. I entrusted the running of it to a lawyer so now we’re looking to find out the whys and hows as everything I do and all the money I make goes to charity.”she said.
Naomi Campbell founded Fashion For Relief, a charity that combined fashion and charity, in 2005, but after an investigation by the Charities Commission, it was revealed that only a small percentage of the money went to good cause. This resulted in the company being dissolved and struck off the register of charities.

According to his publication “Sky News”Campbell appears to have used the charity’s funds to pay for her stay at a five-star hotel in Cannes, as well as spa treatments, room service and cigarettes.
The famous model was one of three trustees of the charity to be disqualified as a result of the investigation. This means they are banned from being a trustee or holding a senior management role in any charity in England and Wales during the lockout.

The regulator said the managers said the hotels’ costs were usually covered by a donor to the organization so they did not burden the foundation, but failed to provide evidence to prove this.
