– We received many inquiries from different places. But we still don’t know who she is. No one called and said “This is my mom” or “This is my sister”. We have linked Europol, but so far no country has contacted us and said it is missing. She is not a Croatian citizen. She speaks great English, a policeman at the local police station in Krk told Nettavisen earlier this week.
Now the Croatian police have finally managed to solve parts of the mystery after friends and acquaintances got to know the woman after massive media reports around the world.
Hollywood stars on client list
Police identified the woman as Slovak jewelry designer Daniela Adamkova. The 57-year-old periodically lived in Los Angeles until 2015, designing jewelry for Hollywood stars Watchman.
The woman is said to have had such famous clients as Diana Ross, Brigitte Bardot and Barbra Streisand. The newspaper also reported that her jewelry was placed in the popular TV series Friends.
From 2015 to 2018, the woman must have lived in Ireland, where she worked in a homeless shelter. After that, she was said to have returned to her hometown of Trenčín in Slovakia. A local magazine in her hometown of Trenchin previously did a photo of the woman, describing her as a successful jewelry designer who sold jewelry to Hollywood stars.
The police have no explanation as to how the woman got to the Croatian island, or why she apparently suffers from amnesia.
