Julia Wendell’s initial claims that she was Madeleine were disproved after a DNA test proved the her ancestry was mostly Polish and she could not be the youngster who vanished on a family holiday to Portugal in 2007.
Revealing her plans on Instagram, she wrote: “I want to do this because I just want to do this and I don’t even have to explain why but I think everyone knows why I want to do this. When the results come I will let you know everything.
Julia claimed she has “support” from officials and people in law enforcement, and that she has requested documents from Dr Fia Johansson, the private investigator/celebrity psychic who had power of attorney over her in America.
Last week Julia apologised to Madeleine’s parents Kate and Gerry McCann for causing them “sadness” as a result of her claims.
Julia sparked a worldwide storm after claiming she was Madeleine. Her original Instagram account iammadeleinemccan had more than one million followers before it was deactivated.
She said she had few memories from her childhood and pointed to a defect in her eye similar to the one Madeleine was known to have to back up her claims.
In recent posts, she insisted: “I have to say I never said I am Madeleine. I always said that I believe I could be Madeleine.”
