Media outlets in Thailand have reported a tragic incident involving Gwendoline Cretton, a 24-year-old Swiss passport holder, who was found dead at her residence in Bangkok’s Prawet district last Thursday night. The young fashion model, previously associated with the same agency that represented stars like Gaile Lok and Danielle Graham, met a devastating end under deeply suspicious circumstances.
According to Thai media, Gwendoline was brutally stabbed nine times in what appeared to be a gruesome attack. Following the horrifying assault, three men—her partner and two neighbors—carried her lifeless body to a car. The neighbors had rushed to the scene after hearing cries for help but were unable to save her. Her husband, whose identity remains undisclosed, took her to the hospital, later claiming she had attempted suicide. However, the Thai police were skeptical, suspecting that he orchestrated the whole scene to cover up the murder.
Gwendoline, an established model, had worked with CalCarries International Management, a prestigious agency that had a roster of renowned models, including Gaile Lok, Danielle Graham, and Kathy Chow Man-kei. The agency confirmed she had been under contract until 2024 but noted that they had lost contact with her since she was no longer working with them.
Her professional journey took many glamorous strides, the most notable being a recent photoshoot for an Italian fashion brand, showcased prominently on various social media platforms in late January. Her Instagram feed was a testament to her thriving career, filled with stunning images and collaborative works with various makeup artists.
Tracing back to as early as 2018, Gwendoline’s modeling portfolio was rich with visually captivating shoots. Although she had a YouTube channel under the pseudonym “Gwen Sun,” it bore no content upon examination by the Post. Surprisingly, Gwendoline’s modeling profile also surfaced on East West Models, a noted agency based in Frankfurt, Germany, leaving an international footprint in her career.
The tragedy of Gwendoline’s death has stirred a significant reaction, with attempts being made to reach the Swiss embassy in Bangkok and the consulate in Hong Kong for further details. However, Hong Kong’s Immigration Department has stated that it has not received any formal requests for assistance concerning this heartbreaking case.
The fashion world, along with Gwendoline’s friends, family, and admirers, now grieves the loss of a vibrant young talent whose life was cut short in a manner no one could have anticipated. The investigation continues, with hopes that justice will be served and the full truth surrounding this tragic event will be unveiled.
This is just heartbreaking. How could something like this happen?
Honestly, it’s suspicious how her husband claimed she attempted suicide. Nine stab wounds? That’s not a typical case of self-harm.
Totally agree. It just doesn’t add up. This needs a thorough investigation without any bias.
What’s concerning is that her modeling agency had lost contact with her. Could there have been any signs of trouble she didn’t share?
Exactly, Rachel. We can never know what someone might be going through privately.
I hope the police leave no stone unturned. This case needs to be solved quickly for justice.
Why do tragedies like this seem to happen to tourists in Thailand so often? It’s really scary for travelers.
I know what you mean. Thailand has a reputation for being dangerous at times, especially for foreigners.
It’s unfair to generalize. This is an awful incident, but Thailand is mostly safe. Bad things can happen anywhere.
Seems suspicious that her husband was so quick to label it a suicide. Wish we had more details on his background.
Yes, Tom, that seems fishy. I hope authorities dig deeper into his past and relationship with Gwendoline.
Gwendoline was such a talented model. Her work was exceptional. It’s a huge loss for the fashion industry.
This feels like something out of a crime drama. I hate to think her husband could be involved.
Sometimes reality is stranger than fiction. I wouldn’t rule anything out just yet.
I feel so bad for her family. Losing someone this way is unimaginable.
It’s the worst. Grief must be overwhelming, especially when the death is so brutal and unclear.
True, Chris. Her family must be going through hell right now.
Could this have been related to her work? Models often face disturbing situations in the industry.
If the neighbors saw something, they should come forward with all details. They might hold the key to this case.
Good point. Their testimonies could be crucial to solving this mystery.
Her YouTube channel being empty is strange, almost like someone wiped it clean.
Maybe it’s just a coincidence, but it does add another layer of mystery.
I agree, Larry. It might be nothing, but it feels odd.
Such a senseless loss of a young life. This is a reminder of the dark side of human relationships.
Indeed. It’s a grim reminder that looks can be deceiving; we never know what’s happening behind the scenes.
I hope the Swiss embassy steps in soon and takes this case seriously.
We shouldn’t jump to conclusions, but the husband’s actions raise a lot of red flags.
Was there any history of domestic violence in their relationship? This level of violence often doesn’t come out of nowhere.
Good question. Domestic violence cases often escalate if left unchecked. Hope the investigation covers this angle.
Such a pretty girl, taken too soon. I can’t even imagine the horror she went through in her final moments.
Heart-wrenching to think about. She had so much potential and a promising future.
A lot of people are focusing on the husband, but we need to remember innocent until proven guilty.
