Per People, Williams is refuting much of her dramatic portrayal, including her character making derogatory comments about one of Delvey’s friends portrayed in the series, lying about her involvement in Delvey’s arrest, abandoning Delvey in Morocco and ending their friendship once it became clear Delvey could no longer foot extravagant bills. The dramatic relationship, from private fitness classes to post-Marrakesh arrest, was all chronicled in the Netflix series.
ANNA DELVEY FRIEND TRIAL
Delvey was later found guilty on eight charges, including attempted grand larceny - though the jury in her trial didn’t find her guilty of stealing from Williams. Williams later cooperated with law enforcement in the sting operation that led to Delvey’s 2017 arrest. “As an added bonus, she paid for everything.” But their friendship soon deteriorated after Delvey invited Williams on a Moroccan vacation and allegedly stuck her with a $62,000 bill. “She walked into my life in Gucci sandals and Celine glasses, and showed me a glamorous, frictionless world of hotel living and Le Coucou dinners and infrared saunas and Moroccan vacations,” Williams wrote.
Īccording to a 2018 essay Williams wrote for Vanity Fair, the two became fast friends after meeting in 2016. “We had to file the case because Netflix used Rachel’s real name and biographical details, and made her out to be a horrible person, which she is not,” Williams’s lawyer told People. On Monday, Rachel DeLoache Williams - an ex-friend of Delvey’s who alleged that she had been cornered into footing the bill for an exorbitant Morocco vacation - filed a defamation lawsuit against Netflix for her depiction in the series. Though Inventing Anna, Netflix’s adaptation of a New York story about the high-flying scams of fake German heiress Anna Delvey (born Anna Sorokin) came out months ago, the show is still apparently ruffling feathers.
