In a scandal shaking the British charity scene, iconic supermodel Naomi Campbell has been banned from serving as a charity trustee in the UK for five years after an investigation revealed shocking misuse of funds.

The UK Charity Commission, which regulates charities in England and Wales, discovered that only a dismal 8.5% of the charity’s overall expenditure between 2016 and 2022 went towards charitable causes, with the rest fueling Campbell’s luxurious lifestyle.

The commission’s three-year investigation uncovered that charity funds were used to cover Campbell’s stays at high-end hotels, spa treatments, and even cigarettes. The findings have ignited outrage, with many questioning the ethical oversight of Campbell’s charitable work.

Reacting to the watchdog's report, Campbell claimed ignorance in an interview with AP, stating, "I have just found out about the findings today. And I am extremely concerned." She added that she wasn’t in control of the charity’s finances, having entrusted its management to a legal employer.

Despite Campbell’s claims of being in the dark, the revelations have rocked her reputation, with many questioning how much she knew—or chose not to know—about the charity's lavish spending. 

For now, Naomi Campbell finds herself at the center of a financial storm, banned from her philanthropic endeavors and facing serious scrutiny over her role in the mismanagement. 

The fallout from this investigation promises to be a major blow for one of fashion’s most famous figures.
