Mystery still surrounds the exact situation of Karen Mulder. As I posted yesterday, neighbours found her in her apartment surrounded by sleeping pills and called an ambulance. Her ex-fiance, Jean Yves Le Fur, called the NY Post within the hour and told Page Six he was the one who took her to the American Hospital in Neuilly, following a suicide attempt.

But her parents, appearing virtually on every TV network here, claim that Karen checked herself into a French clinic on the advice of a psychiatrist after suffering from "delusia", a psychiatric condition ("A false belief strongly held in spite of invalidating evidence, especially as a symptom of mental illness").

Both sides are not very reliable sources. Karen believes her father abused her in her childhood, which could be "delusia" syptoms, but then, also couldn't. Karen's mother tried to convince Dutch courts last year that her daughter is not able to take care of her financial matters, and to let her manage her daughter's bank accounts. Karen Mulder has more than 10 millions of euros in financial assets.

As for Jean Yves Le Fur (pic, above), an ex male model turned magazine publisher, he always used Karen for publicity purposes, and has done so even more since her condition deteriorated. According to a lawsuit, he ripped another ex-fiancee, fashion journalist Tiana Kiefer, from her magazine idea (DS). He later invested in Numero.

According to some sources here, the two versions do no collide: the appartment in which Karen Mulder was found could be Le Fur's home, on Avenue Montaigne. It is probable that after her stay in the hospital, Mulder checked in at a psychiatric clinic.
