Anna Sorokin: Out of Jail, Off Social Media, and Onto Reality TV?
Anna Sorokin BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Barely a week goes by without a new Anna Sorokin headline and this past week has been no different. According to Bloomberg and Variety, Anna Sorokin, the Russian-born woman behind the Anna Delvey persona, was released from federal jail just days ago after posting a 10,000 dollar bail bond. The court ruled in her favor regarding her immigration case and ordered that she remain under strict home confinement with 24-hour electronic monitoring, and — in the most modern twist — absolutely no access to social media. Her attorney, Duncan Levin, wasted no time declaring her not a danger to the community and celebrated the judge’s decision. That win capped off what has been a string of legal victories for Sorokin, as AOL reports she was quietly released from house arrest last month and is expected to make appearances at various New York Fashion Week events.
Amid all this, Sorokin has not exactly faded from the spotlight. NBC News recaps a bizarre and headline-grabbing moment: just last week, Anna Sorokin was at the center of social media outrage after being accused of abandoning domesticated rabbits in Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Days before, she posed with the rabbits for an Instagram photoshoot in Manhattan’s Tribeca neighborhood. The rabbits were later found and identified by animal lovers online, which ignited a wave of digital abuse, with Sorokin claiming she received hundreds of death threats through her unusable Instagram inbox. She stressed to NBC News that she had not intentionally harmed the animals and provided evidence of her efforts to return them via Uber to their owner, but the incident only fueled her reputation as a social lightning rod.
Meanwhile, she continues to leverage her notoriety in new ways. Just this week, as reported by The Things, Anna teased a new reality show titled The Anonymous, which features contestants deceiving one another while vying for a cash prize — a concept that plays straight into her infamous backstory. Her Instagram remains technically silent due to judicial restrictions, but content tagged by others, including fashion and media accounts, still keeps her in the public eye. Notably, her photos from August 22 have been circulating via third parties such as BRICKS and British Fashion Council.
There are persistent rumors and social chatter speculating her next major media move — possibly a memoir or another Netflix project — but as of now, these reports remain unconfirmed. What is certain is that Anna Sorokin remains a fixture in both legitimate news and the feverish gossip that surrounds New York’s most notorious ex-fake heiress.
