BREAKING NEWS: McCann Stalker Makes Shocking Contact with Madeleine's Sister in Court A shocking development has emerged in the trial of two women accused of stalking Kate and Gerry McCann, the parents of missing Madeleine McCann. The alleged stalker, Julia Wandelt, 24, made contact with the McCanns' daughter Amelie, prompting Kate McCann to call the police. Kate McCann testified that learning about the contact was "the final straw" for her and prompted her to take action. She described feeling a sense of "fright" when she discovered the defendants had turned up outside their family home in December 2024. The trial is ongoing at Leicester Crown Court, where Kate and Gerry McCann are giving evidence against Wandelt and Karen Spragg, who are accused of stalking them between June 2022 and February this year. The use of a screen to protect the McCanns' identities during their testimony was deemed "entirely usual" by the court.
