A woman claimed she was Madeleine McCann has previously made accusations that she was another missing child, it has been reported.
A friend of Julia has now said she's been questioning her identity since she was a teenager, the Mirror reports. "I hadn't seen her for a year or so and then a few months back I heard from friends that Julia was back at it again and saying that she was really Madeleine McCann which everyone knew was ridiculous because Maddie is younger."
Julia's friend explained that she moved to Wroclaw at the age of seven with her mum and had to move schools after struggling to settle in.
