TikTok star Miranda Derrick has clapped back at rumors of her being abducted by a cult, posting a video taunting her family.
Former TikTok duo ‘the Wilking Sisters‘ rose to fame in early 2020 when Melanie Wilking, 22, and Miranda Derrick, 25, (maiden name Wilking), had the idea to start posting artistic dance videos.
At the time, the sisters had over 2 million followers, before breaking off and focusing on their individual careers in mid-2021.
After leaving the group, Miranda joined a talent management agency that operates under the name “7M Films,” which some claim to be a cover for a religious cult.
On February 24, 2022, Miranda’s sister Melanie, along with her parents Kelly and Dean Wilking posted a video to Instagram praying for Derrick’s safety and return home, alleging that she has been “held hostage” by a talent management agency.
