Wheelchair became her pass to the world of fashion.
41-year-old Clare Freeman in 1995 at the age of 17 got into a terrible car accident, when her mother Barbara fell asleep at the wheel and the car fell off a cliff. The culprit of the accident was lucky, but her daughter had to spend three years in hospital and undergo several complicated operations, after which she sometimes lapsed into a coma.
Doctors were not sure that the girl will survive, but she survived, however, life was paralyzed.
for 15 years, Claire struggled not only with the consequences of the accident, but with the long depression, and even tried to commit suicide when one of the therapists told her that he would not want to live “in this position”. After psychological rehabilitation, Claire started to come around. She graduated from the design course and received his doctorate in medicine, writes Daily Mail.
But her life completely changed a few years ago, when she, in spite of its complexes, started a page on Instagram. Claire began to publish in social networks your pictures with a wheelchair and started to receive encouraging messages from strangers. Photographers began to invite her to the shooting as a model, and in 2018 Claire drew the attention of the members of the Italian model Agency Iulia Barton, who signed her to a real modeling contract. Since then lifeHB Freeman has changed dramatically. She has several times participated in shows, including at the Milan fashion Week.
Now, Claire not only works as a model, but also paints pictures and shares the experience with other people with disabilities.
