After the meeting Regina Daniels was said to have been angry with the victim inciting that the aspiring actress should have offered herself to the producer.[18][19] Two days later Daniels denied all allegations, and said a fan was using her name to dupe the actress. On 23 November 2017, the impersonator was arrested by the police and Regina Daniels was exonerated.[20][21][22]
