In a chilling development, 24-year-old Eurasian model Gwendoline Cretton from Hong Kong was discovered brutally stabbed to death in her Bangkok apartment recently. Thai media reports indicate that the grim discovery was made after neighbors reported hearing distressing screams around 6:15 PM.
Surveillance footage reveals a distressing scene: Cretton being carried out of her apartment by her Hong Kong boyfriend, Wai, accompanied by two other men. Wai has since been arrested by Thai police. He has claimed that Cretton’s death was a suicide, but this explanation is met with skepticism. Surveillance footage also shows Wai’s yellow car lingering near the apartment shortly before the incident, and Cretton was last seen walking her dog around 5:30 PM on the same day.
The Thai Immigration Department has not yet received any formal requests for assistance but remains in close contact with the Office of the Commissioner of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Chinese Embassy in Thailand to oversee the case.
Cretton’s untimely death has shocked the modeling community. Represented by CalCarries International Management, which also manages well-known models like Gaile Lok and Danielle Graham, Cretton’s career was marked by a recent photo shoot for an Italian fashion brand, with images shared on social media in late January. She had been with the agency until her contract ended earlier this year, and they have been unable to reach her since.
In addition to her modeling work, Cretton maintained a YouTube channel under the name Gwen Sun, although it appears to have had no content.
The Swiss Embassy in Bangkok and the consulate in Hong Kong have been contacted for statements, but no comments have been released as of now, according to the South China Morning Post.
