A model who moved to Ukraine to become an "emotional support stripper" for troops fighting against Russia has claimed that the Mafia asked her to smuggle weapons for them.

Fan-Pei Koung, 33, a beauty pageant competitor who moved to Ukraine from Houston, Texas, flogs racy pictures online and made her subscription service free for Ukrainian fighters.

She describes herself as a "globe-trotting girlfriend" and has been collecting donations to help the war effort against Vladimir Putin.

But since her move to Ukraine, she has had run ins with nefarious characters and now claims that the Mafia tried to enlist her help.

Taking to Instagram on Monday (September 4), she wrote: "The Mafia asked me to smuggle arms for them. I asked how much.

"The Ukrainian psych doctor stood over me with his team and made me handwrite a letter swearing that I will never say anything bad that happened, just like my Mom used to.

"Ukrainians are bullying me into silence. THERE ARE TOO MANY PARALLELS BETWEEN THIS WHOLE SITUATION AND MY OWN FAMILY."

In the slightly erratic post, she clings onto a US flag in the picture and rants about "the Potential New Administration."

She ended her post with: "Ukrainians, I still love you, even though you are hurting me so badly. I came ready to die for Ukraine. I still am.

"If it's under the hands of Ukrainians or Russians, I'm ready. I love you, even when you don't believe me. I love you."

According to The Daily Beast, Fan-Pei first visited Ukraine in November 2022 to volunteer in women’s shelters and orphanages in Lviv, a city in the west of the country.

She left after a month and had plans to move to Mexico to live with another influencer. She said: "But as soon as I left, I desperately wanted to come back to Ukraine. I was losing my mind trying to get back."

So in February 2023 she returned, this time moving to Kyiv to be closer to the fighting.

She has amassed more than 50,000 Instagram followers off the back of her racy content.

On her subscription site she says she has been collecting donations, taking water to the frontlines and teaching children English.
