The Freckled Fox, producer of a yearly baby haha, announced back in April that her husband Martin had “aggressive Stage 4 Melanoma Cancer”. Since that time they apparently spent a few weeks in Mexico getting “alternative” treatments, having a “little operation“, and posting selfies after which the couple returned home where Martin immediately resumed his workouts. He claimed to have “inflamed tumors” at the base of his spine, and his wife hailed him as a “warrior” covered in stitches and  tubes coming out of his chest.

But suspicion began to grow as the patient, allegedly riddled with tumors in “multiple spots on his liver, his brain and other organs”, spent the weeks in Mexico going out for big delicious Mexican dinners, seeing movies, and taking selfies of himself to show off the view from their hotel room. Theories were put forth that he was simply getting vitamin infusions or perhaps had been misdiagnosed, since there appears to be no physical evidence of a traumatizing surgery to remove giant tumors as claimed.

The whole affair came topped with – you guessed it – paypal begging to the tune of $100,000. A few months after that uhhhhwtf request, they announced they had purchased a new home, adding even more fuel to the scam gossip fire.

So what do you think, folks? Do we have a Jess Ainscough or a Belle Gibson here?
