'Apple Cider Vinegar' Creator Samantha Strauss Says Meeting the Real-Life Belle Gibson Was 'Never an Option' (Exclusive) ...Saudi Arabia

Creator Samantha Strauss was able to take such artistic liberties in part because she never met the real-life Gibson (Kaitlyn Dever). "It was never an option for me," she tells Parade in an exclusive interview.

"Not meeting her does give you license to create," she added. By not coming face-to-face with the real Gibson, Strauss felt she was given the "freedom to explore someone without being beholden to them." She sees her version of the character as both "completely monstrous and completely relatable."

"It has connected communities that haven't been had enough representation and that value is so profound," she told Parade. But when it comes to matters of health and wellness, one has to be careful who they listen to online. "There are people who are not doctors and not scientists [sharing their opinions]," she says. In those cases, "social media can be a catastrophe."
