On May 23, local time, the Daily Mail published a photo of a homeless person living on the streets of Los Angeles, California, USA.
The woman in the picture, wearing a baseball cap, with a cigarette in her mouth, pulls a red shopping cart full of dendritics, and walks aimlessly. The lady in slim sweatpants was not wearing shoes, and there were already obvious holes in the heels of the black socks.
The newspaper focused on the homeless because she was once a celebrity, Loni Willison, a fitness model who had fulfilled her Hollywood dreams.
Willison is 39 years old, and the photo above is her former appearance, looking very fit and plump, running with then-TV star husband Jeremy Jackson, full of energy.
Willison had also been on the cover of a magazine, and she was very dazzling with blonde hair, but now that her long blonde hair was gone, it is estimated that the blonde hair at that time was not her original hair color.
Not only that, but now Willison may be because of a long period of starvation, his cheeks are sunken, and he no longer has the glittering feeling he once had.
Willison married Jackson in 2012 and had a grand wedding on a beach in California. Before and after marriage, Willison would often accompany Jackson on the red carpet, and her tall and healthy posture coupled with her good looks made her easy to get attention and became a celebrity for a while. Jackson became a star for starring in the TV series "Beach Ambulance", and his strong body also won him a lot of fans.
Although Willison, a fitness model, has ascended to the next level with his marriage, good luck is not always accompanied. Soon after the marriage, her relationship with Jackson took a sharp turn for the worse, and she even called the police to claim that her husband attacked her and "broke two ribs", but because no formal charges were filed, Jackson was not arrested, but the two eventually broke up. Later, Willison said in an interview, "It took me two months to get back to normal."
But apparently Willison did not return to "normal" in the usual sense, she was unable to exercise, and thus could not work modeling, so she was financially troubled and eventually had to sleep on the street.
As for the experience of his ex-wife, Jackson did not react at all, the two people seemed to have signed a prenuptial agreement, so Willison did not get any "break-up fees". In addition, there is news that Willison's transformation into what she is today is related to the fact that she has developed bad habits, and she has been sleeping on the streets for a long time, and has been homeless since 2016, and was first discovered two years ago.
As you can see from the picture, Willison, who is smoking a cigarette, does not miss every trash can that passes, she finds a bucket of potato chips, opens it to see if there is any leftover.
From a photo taken earlier this year, she would pick up half a drink and other food discarded by others, and she didn't care about hygiene in order to feed her stomach.
Regarding street life, Willison once said in an interview, "I've been robbed and people take my stuff, and I've made myself as dirty as I can so that no one attacks me." I'm dirty and smelly, and doing these two things, I'm really good at it now." Regarding the short hair, Willison admitted that she cut it herself, also to avoid being attacked.
Willison's two wrists are full of jewelry, and it is estimated that there will not be too valuable things, but an Apple Watch has also attracted everyone's attention. It is not known whether this was picked up by her or had it before she slept on the street (the first generation was launched in 2015).
But in any case, a smart watch can not change the status quo of Willison. Willison's former friends reportedly wanted help after learning of her condition, but she refused, neither treating nor sheltering.
