The upcoming Netflix series 'Apple Cider Vinegar' tells the fictionalized story of Belle Gibson, the Australian wellness influencer who gained fame by falsely claiming to have cured her brain cancer through a healthy diet. The series explores Gibson's meteoric rise, her creation of the 'The Whole Pantry' app and cookbook, and the eventual unraveling of her lies.
We all know influencers aren’t telling 100% of the truth 100% of the time, but there’s a difference between making it seem like your house is nicer than it is or that you have the perfect relationship, and lying about cancer. That’s exactly what Belle Gibson did. You might know Gibson as the health influencer who claimed she cured her cancer with a healthy diet, all while never having cancer at all.
” Gibson’s falsehoods unraveled when, right before her cookbook, The Whole Pantry, was to be released in the U.K. and U.S., reporters from The Age looked into her claims and found “everything was based on a litany of falsehoods.” Gibson eventually told The Australian Women’s Weekly that “none of it’s true” when asked if she ever had cancer. She was fined $410,000 by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission after being found guilty of violating five counts of consumer law.
