Influencer hospitalised after being drugged, robbed at pool party

An influencer and reality TV star has revealed she feared for her life after she attended a pool party with a friend and ended up in hospital.

A popular reality TV star was rushed to the hospital after claiming she had been drugged and robbed at a party in recent days.

Vanessa Mariposa, an Austrian influencer who boasts more than 800,000 Instagram followers, recounted the harrowing ordeal in a video online — saying she feared for her life as a result, the New York Post reports.

“I want to share something serious with you, something that happened to me recently and that every woman needs to hear,” the 32-year-old captioned her video.

In the clip, Mariposa told her followers that the terrifying ordeal happened when she and her pal attended a rooftop party in Mallorca, Spain.

After drinking “a total of three glasses of wine,” Mariposa said, “Suddenly, we both felt really, really bad, and I immediately realised something was wrong with me.”

She said that she and her friend began to feel “extremely unwell, out of nowhere,” but noted that they didn’t leave their drinks unattended at any time.

Mariposa believes that both she and her friend had date rape drugs slipped into their drinks, leaving them vomiting and unable to walk.

“I couldn’t walk properly, I threw up multiple times and I completely blacked out,” she said. “I lost all memory of the night. That’s when I knew something was really wrong. I really thought I was going to die.”

In addition to being drugged, Mariposa said that her Cartier bracelet had been stolen along with her cell phone’s SIM card.

“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 went on.

Mariposa added that luckily, her partner Luca and another friend were nearby and got the feeling that “something was wrong” before bringing the women back home safely.

The following day, Mariposa and her friend were rushed to the hospital, where doctors 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.

The model added that she wanted to share what had happened to her to warn other women and urge them to be vigilant.

“I’m sharing this because I want every woman out there to stay alert. Don’t trust anyone blindly. Never leave your drink unattended,” she said.

“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,” Mariposa added.
