Adopted Ukrainian-born woman addresses controversial documentary revelations and launches GoFundMe for independence

Natalia Grace, at the center of the controversial documentary “The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks,” has finally spoken out after her adoptive family’s unexpected fallout. The Ukrainian-born woman, who gained international attention over allegations of concealing her real age, has faced yet another tumultuous chapter in her life.

In a shocking turn of events documented on January 3, the documentary revealed that Cynthia and Antwon Mans, Natalia’s adoptive parents since 2016, declared they were ‘done’ with her just two weeks earlier. The revelation occurred during a recorded phone call where Antwon expressed concerns about Natalia’s behavior, claiming she made false accusations of being held hostage.

Despite the Mans family’s statement, Natalia Grace took to her Instagram to assure well-wishers of her well-being. She wrote, “I am okay and doing well, and thank you all for your support and prayers.” Natalia expressed gratitude for the support while acknowledging her confidentiality agreement with the documentary.

Adding a surprising twist to her story, Natalia recently launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for her own home and necessary surgeries. Diagnosed with Diastrophic Dysplasia, a type of dwarfism, she aims to accumulate over $500,000 for major spine and leg surgeries, revealing that her medical insurance does not cover the specialist’s costs.

The GoFundMe page description outlines her aspirations: “I’m saving money to get my own house, start my own photography business, and create a fun way to capture memories for myself and others!” Natalia has already raised close to $9,000 at the time of writing.

As the adopted girl continues to navigate the challenges life throws at her, the world remains captivated by the twists and turns of Natalia Grace’s unique and compelling story.
