The influencer, a mother of four children, whose daughter was treated after being accused of faking the little girl’s brain tumor, had previously been accused of lying about her own kidney disease.
This week, police said they had seized the Queensland mummy blogger’s son after concerns were raised about the girl after the mother’s GoFundMe appeal raised $62,000.
New details have now emerged about the mother who used photos allegedly stolen from another Instagram account to pretend she was being treated for kidney failure.
Deleted video footage has also resurfaced of her addressing a Queensland church to claim her healing was a miracle and telling worshipers: “God healed me.”
The mother has now been branded a “monster” by her own husband after he allegedly discovered she had been drugging her daughter as part of the deception.
The alarm was raised after nursing staff saw his social media posts making claims about the child’s treatment that did not match reality.
Police have since placed the child in care while investigations continue, and GoFundMe has blocked the appeal funds to prevent the mother from accessing them while the investigation is ongoing.
It has since been revealed that she was accused in 2019 of using alarming images of syringes with long needles taken from the social media account of a seriously ill American woman.

He also used details from the woman’s post to pretend she was receiving similar treatment for chronic kidney disease and detailed her illness to parishioners.
The mummy blogger, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, said that after working seven days a week her body began to “degrade” without her knowing.
“I went to see the doctors and they instantly took me in an ambulance to the hospital,” he read in his notes while on the church stage.
“I was soon diagnosed with stage 5 chronic kidney disease.”
She claims she was told that until a match was found for a new kidney, she would have to undergo dialysis three times a week to keep her alive.
“I didn’t know how I could put in fifteen or twenty hours of dialysis on top of my already busy work schedule, but I managed to do it,” he said.
Needing to “lean on God,” she began attending church and claimed that “something amazing happened” after the congregation prayed for her.
“The next day I went straight to the doctor for a test and the next night I had another test at the hospital and my kidney function had increased from seven per cent to 33 per cent,” he said.
“To this day, he is slowly getting better and better and I firmly believe that through the healing power of God I will not need a kidney transplant.”
But the miraculous recovery was questioned by former supporters who criticized her for allegedly using stolen photographs of other patients’ hospital treatments to pass them off as her own.
Posting on her popular Instagram page, which is currently deactivated, the woman shared the terrifying photo of a dialysis needle.
“I wish I could say this needle was for a horse, but unfortunately it’s for me,” she wrote in the caption.
“Not just one of these needles, but two (one to put blood in and one to take blood out) three times a week for about five hours straight.”
Hundreds of strangers donated to the cause and reacted angrily to the accusations.
But Daily Mail Australia can reveal that the image of the blood-stained needle was taken from the Instagram account of a Californian woman called Nicole.
The woman had posted the same photo in 2018, with a caption that read: “This is my Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday.” Yeah! This needle is not for a horse, it is for me! I receive not one, but two, three times a week.
Earlier this week, the Queensland mother’s estranged husband reacted to the uproar and police investigation with a savage online outburst against his wife.
“For what it’s worth, I had no idea what (the mother) was doing to (the child),” the devastated father said in a social media post on Monday.
‘I pushed for those surgeries because in my heart I felt they would help.
‘I didn’t realize that (our daughter) was being drugged the entire time, causing her symptoms to be what they were.
‘I do the best I can to love and protect my children. I should have done better for them. I’m sorry I couldn’t protect her like I should.’
Queensland Police confirmed their investigation in a statement to Daily Mail Australia earlier this week.
“Police are aware of reports of harm to a one-year-old girl,” a police spokesperson said.
‘The Queensland Police Service took action to protect the child and launched an investigation.
“As this is an active investigation, it would be inappropriate to comment further.”
GoFundMe said it had a “zero tolerance policy for misuse of our platform.”
“Our Trust and Safety specialists are aware of the allegations and are investigating as part of our standard due diligence process,” a spokesperson said.
‘This includes cooperating with police investigations.
“While the investigation is ongoing, no further funds can be raised or withdrawn.”
Daily Mail Australia has contacted both parents for comment.
