What happened between Woah Vicky and John Gabbana? All we know as Instagram model allegedly faked kidnapping in Nigeria

Social media influencer Woah Vicky has once again found herself in hot water after confessing to faking a kidnapping story during her recent trip to Nigeria. Known for her over-the-top antics, Vicky’s latest stunt has sparked outrage and disappointment among her followers. As she navigates through her latest controversy, let's take a quick look at her rocky relationship with former partner John Gabbana.

In 2022, Victoria Rose, formerly known as Woah Vicky, publicly alleged that her ex, John Gabbana, had subjected her to emotional and physical abuse throughout their relationship.

The couple’s turbulent romance, which began in January 2021, was marked by a cycle of frequent breakups and reconciliations. Their on-again, off-again dynamic often played out in public view, drawing significant attention from fans and critics alike.

At one point, the duo even appeared in an interview with The Shade Room Teens, where they opened up about their relationship, discussing how they met and expressing their love for one another.

However, the sincerity of that interview was scrutinized by John’s mother who alleged that Gabbana had lied about his childhood upbringing in the interview. She said:

"LISTEN! Boonk is NOT! being truthful. At the end Boonk said he never had nothing.. RIGHT? BOONK your story is always changing if people will listen and question Boonk answers they will know he full of s—-."

According to The Shade Room, John Gabbana did not respond to Vicky's allegations about alleged abuse but did seemingly respond to his mom's comments. Gabbana said:

"Who said I grew up in da hood? I said I grew up in an abusive home."
