Chloe Wallace

Chloe Amandine Marie Wallace (b. 5th November 1959) is a Jetanie-born Kuboian media personality, activist, rapper, singer, music manager and author. She began her career in the early 1980s as a political activist who worked with politician Trevor Reef to form the Kuboian Independence Movement. After the formation of the Republic of Kuboia in 1987, she saw further success as a media personality and musician who raises money for disadvantaged people and families in the country of Kuboia.

Early life
Chloe Amandine Marie Wallace was born in Jetania on 5th November 1959 to an English father and a French mother. Her parents met in the mid 1940s when Jetania was still referred to as Ghost Island, with both having fled with their respective families to the island during World War II. As a five year-old, Wallace survived a car crash that killed her older brother Wilfried, with her parents divorcing shortly after his death. She explained "When Wilfried died, it crushed the whole family. My dear mother and father had already been through enough, and then they had to experience this."

Although her parents initially agreed to hold joint custody for Wallace, her mother ended up abandoning her at the age of eleven. Living with her father, Wallace cited him as physically and verbally abusive, eventually hitting her with a broken glass bottle at the age of seventeen, which left her with a scar on her face. She ultimately decided to move out following the incident, and spent several days homeless before encountering Jetanie co-founder Sterling Alfredson, whom brought her to a homeless shelter. Two days later, Alfredson sent her to politician Trevor Reef, who offered Wallace accommodation on the condition that she did several cleaning jobs throughout the Dominion of Kuboia so it could be more safe for people to live in. Reef later admitted that he was very strict and critical to Wallace, but was very forgiving when he apologised to her.

Kuboian Independence Movement
From 1983 until 1987, Wallace became a prominent figure during the Kuboian Independence Movement, doing various errands to promote the campaign and becoming a frequent interviewee on KBG. She would generally use the slogan "Our land, our rules" when raising funds and spreading awareness, though she also used the catchphrase "Don't forget to vote Yes" in the run up to the 1984 Kuboian Independence Referendum. Following the success of the referendum, Wallace acted as an activist and advisor, giving suggestions on layouts and structure of each of the country's settlements. Wallace was also responsible for naming the areas of Britribute, Goodghetto, Kuboian Borders, Kuboian Cliffs and Jaillage. She explained "I was told by John Kunning that I could name some of the areas because they didn't know what to call them." She explained that she chose Britribute because she wanted to pay homeage to her and her friends' British ancestors who fought in World War II, Goodghetto because she wanted to promote the country's supposed superior lifestyle and attitude and Jaillage because Kunning wanted the main prison to be close to Reichetto where the majority of "VIP"s were residented.

Because of her contribution to the foundation of independent Kuboia, Wallace was amongst the first people included in the Kunning Hall of Fame when it was founded in 1988.

Post-Independence
After Kuboia became an independent country in March 1987, Wallace expanded her occupation range, acting as a presenter for Vision Network and eventually forming a music career.

Personal life
Despite her poor relationship with her family growing up, Wallace ended up reconciling with her parents around 1989.

Relationship with Tone Riddles
Wallace met media personality and singer Edward "Tone Riddles" Reizer in 1986 and started dating him shortly afterwards. Wallace made headlines after she proposed to him live on-air during a KBG special during the Kuboian Independence Movement in April 1987. The two married on 14th February 1988, with their wedding being broadcast live on Vision Network. Although Wallace and Reizer were initially described as a "match made in heaven" and a "perfect couple" during the late 1980s and early 1990s, it was suddenly revealed that Reizer had filed a divorce following multiple incidents of gaslighting and abuse.

A year and a half after their divorce, Reizer filed a restraining order after claiming that Wallace had been stalking him for several months. Wallace was ultimately sentenced to four months in police custody. The fact that Wallace was charged for stalking was not revealed to the public until 2021, though it had been rumoured in the media for over twenty years.
