Jodie Marsh has hit back at “cruel trolls” who she claims are trying to sabotage her animal charity after her £1 million farm was raided by animal investigators.
The raid follows allegations that she took her pet meerkat, Mabel, to the pub.
The ex-glamour model, who keeps 250 rescued animals, including emus, llamas, goats, guinea pigs, and ponies, filmed RSPCA and Trading Standards investigators at the entrance to her farm.

Jodie confirmed that she had taken Mabel to the pub, but said it was for a good reason.
“No one made a fuss or complained about her – everyone is very supportive but I have a troll – I think it’s a woman – who is just out to cause trouble,” she told The Sun.

The investigators checked the rescue centre and asked about the meerkat incident, and Jodie explained that Mabel had been orphaned and needed regular feeding every hour.
She continued: “One of our vets wrote to say how well we look and care for our animals and birds that we have here – and gave us their full support.
“But this campaign against me is taking its toll – I have been forced to pull out of a vegan festival in Oxford this summer because of threats.

Jodie, who funds her farm with her OnlyFans dosh, revealed that it recently underwent its official inspection by the animal authorities and “passed with flying colours.”
However, she claimed that a campaign against her was taking its toll, and she had been forced to pull out of a vegan festival in Oxford due to threats.
“Every penny I make from my Onlyfans website also goes to keep the charity – it costs £4,000 a week to keep it going,” she added.
Jodie took to Instagram to vent her frustration over the drama, claiming that animal rights officers attended her farm in Essex for two hours on Wednesday after receiving reports that an emu there had a tube stuck in its neck.
However, Jodie explained that the tube was a feeding tube that was helping to save the emu’s life.
She also protested that she had been nursing a wild muntjac deer after it fell into a local swimming pool.
Jodie claimed she was the victim of an alleged stalker lying to officials and that she could be arrested over the claims.
The RSPCA confirmed they were called to attend a Trading Standards-led operation but were not required to enter the property.
Essex County Council, which runs Trading Standards for the area, said it had been unable to establish what happened at the property.
