Arabella Del Busso, a disgraced Wag, recounts feeling violated during prison
Imprisoned Wag Strip searches have “traumatized and violated” Arabella Del Busso, who says she has been threatened with a knife inside.
Josh Reynolds, the rugby league hero, had his ex-partner sentenced to 20 months in prison in February for stealing from an employer.
The Australian lingerie model, who also happens to be a boxer, has opened up about her daily battle with “anxiety and fear” while incarcerated in Sydney.

Details were revealed by Daily Mail Australia from a handwritten letter written by the former reality TV star while incarcerated.
Del Busso, 34, claims a fellow prisoner “threatened with being stabbed” at one point.
She also shared how uncomfortable she was with weekly intimate body examinations.
She wrote: “The strip searches … have not only been traumatising but have made me feel violated due to having to remove my clothing in front of two officers.

“One stands in front of you and one other behind you, you are then required to lift up your bra and show your breasts.
“Then either pull your underwear down to your knees or completely off, bend over spread your bum cheeks and lift one foot up at a time.”
Del Busso was imprisoned after he admitted to stealing twice from the Rheumatology Specialist Care company in Sydney. He has already spent two months in prison.
She asked them to pay using cash rather than a credit or debit card, and between September 2019 and September 2020, she stole $52,000, or roughly £27k.

Del Busso claims that she is still having difficulty accepting her inner life.
She added: “Every day I feel such anxiety and fear about how I will just get through the day.”
Reynolds, 34, her ex-boyfriend who was born in Sydney, was a rugby league player for Hull FC in the Super League in 2021–2022.
