Australian influencer Allanah Harris, also known as Allanah Alison, is accused of drugging her 1-year-old daughter Daisy, resulting in a months-long hospital stay and two unnecessary brain surgeries. As The Express Tribune reportsHarris is said to have intentionally caused the symptoms by administering benzodiazepines. The TikToker and her husband had gained over a million followers in the past few months by documenting their family life with their supposedly sick daughter.
During Daisy’s lengthy medical ordeal, the Harris family asked their followers for financial support and raised a significant amount through a GoFundMe campaign.

The allegations came to light after nurses became aware of the social media posts. Their concerns led to further investigation, which ultimately determined that the symptoms were related to elevated levels of benzodiazepines in the child’s body. The youth welfare office then intervened and Daisy and the couple’s other three children were removed from their care. The family’s TikTok account has since been deleted. The Tribune report describes the toddler’s health as good. Daisy is “awake, sitting up, eating and behaving like a normal one-year-old child,” a person in charge is quoted as saying.
Daisy’s father distanced himself from the actions: “I had no idea what Allanah was doing to our child. I insisted on these operations because I thought they were necessary,” wrote Brock Harris on Snapchat. He emphasized that he knew nothing about the drugs. He told his wife: “Allanah, you are an absolute monster.”
