An X Factor finalist accused of murdering a rival influencer during an alleged road rage incident has requested to change her lawyers.
Gabrielle Precious Carrington, 29, known online as 'Rielleuk', allegedly ran over TikTok and Instagram star Klaudia 'Klaudiaglam' Zakrzewska, 32, outside a nightclub in Soho in April this year.
Polish-born Klaudia, who boasted an online following of nearly 260,000 on Instagram, died in hospital six days later.
Carrington took the witness box at the Old Bailey on Tuesday to explain to a judge why she is seeking to transfer legal aid.
The application, initially refused by Judge Simon Mayo KC, was reviewed in light of a letter from Carrington's existing lawyers.
