Andjela Vestica Confirms Ankle Monitor, Won't Say Why
The former reality show contestant confirmed she wears an electronic ankle monitor and may leave home for two hours a day. What she was convicted of, she won't say.
Andjela Vestica, a former reality show contestant, confirmed to Informer that she wears an electronic ankle monitor and is under house arrest. She declined to say why.
The confirmation came after she posted a photo on her Instagram story in recent days showing a device strapped to her ankle. At first glance it looked like an ankle monitor, and speculation about what was going on followed.
What did Andjela Vestica say about the ankle monitor?
Her answer was short and light on detail. She told Informer:
I’m not really willing to talk about it, but it’s true, I have an ankle monitor. I won’t tell you the reason. I’m under house arrest and I’m doing great. I’m always alone anyway. I’m watching a series, I’m eating right now, I’m allowed out for two hours a day.
So she may leave the house for two hours a day. The rest of the time, by her own account, she spends alone with a TV series and her meals.
What is not known about the sentence?
Vestica did not say what she was convicted of. The outlets that carried her statement name neither the court that made the decision nor the length of the sentence.
Mondo reports that she confirmed a conviction. In the statement being quoted, though, she refers explicitly only to the ankle monitor and house arrest. Both outlets also use the term “home prison,” but she herself speaks of house arrest, so we stick to that term.
Breast surgery next month
The ankle monitor is not her only worry. Vestica recently had food poisoning, and now an operation awaits her.
An MRI scan showed that her left implant has ruptured. Capsular contracture was also found. She explained it this way:
I had no plans to enlarge either my breasts or my backside. However, I recently found out on an MRI that my left implant had ruptured and I have to replace them. I also have capsular contracture…
She has had breast surgery four times so far. She also had implants placed in her buttocks and lipofilling, a transfer of her own fat tissue. She previously said she was done with corrections, and now, she says, she is going under the knife for health reasons.
The timing is unclear in the sources themselves. Telegraf says in one place that the operation is in September and in another that it is next month, while Mondo gives the following month. With September nearly over, that means October.
She hopes it will go smoothly this time. About her earlier buttock procedures, she said she hopes “that I won’t end up as badly as the last two times I had my buttocks operated on.”
