X Factor Finalist Charged After Hitting Influencer With Car

by

Gabrielle Carrington is facing legal troubles.

Rielleuk, a finalist on season 10 of The X Factor, has been accused of attempted murder. Prosecutors say she intentionally drove her car into a group of people outside a London nightclub on April 19th.

Gabrielle Carrington will be prosecuted for attempted murder, along with several other charges, following a car accident that injured three pedestrians. These additional charges include dangerous driving, driving under the influence of alcohol, and both assault and grievous bodily harm, according to a statement released on April 20th by Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor David Malone.

Prosecutors have determined there’s enough evidence to charge the defendant, and pursuing criminal charges is in the best interest of the public. They have collaborated closely with the Metropolitan Police throughout the investigation.

London police have confirmed that social media influencer Klaudia Zakrzewska, known as Klaudiaglam, is one of the victims in a recent incident. According to a statement to Deadline, Zakrzewska is currently hospitalized with life-threatening injuries. Another man sustained injuries that will permanently alter his life, and a woman received treatment for minor injuries.

Carrington, who gained recognition as a member of the girl group Miss Dynamix on the 2013 season of a U.K. singing competition, appeared in London’s Westminster Magistrates’ Court on April 21st. According to Sky News reporters present, she did not enter a plea.

The judge ruled that she will be held in jail until her court date on May 19th at the Central Criminal Court in England and Wales.

Videos shared on social media and reviewed by TopMob News show a street fight between Zakrzewska, 30, and Carrington, 29. Witnesses tried to break up the fight, and Carrington then got into a car. People shouted that Carrington was driving over Zakrzewska, and the car hit both Zakrzewska and a man standing on the sidewalk. The car then reversed over Zakrzewska again.

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve seen how quickly things can escalate, and this case is a perfect example. During the court hearing, the prosecutor, Rizwan Amin, showed video footage of what happened. He explained to the judge that it started as a disagreement between Carrington and another person, but unfortunately, it quickly drew in a crowd and things got out of hand.

He stated that Ms. Carrington went back into the car, which then quickly drove onto the sidewalk.

While moving, the vehicle hit Ms. Zakrzewska, who was in front of it. She was pulled forward and ended up between the vehicle and a bike rack. The vehicle continued moving and ran over her completely.
