Mark Emms Produced A Hit Netflix Docuseries

Mark Emms is the producer behind Netflix’s Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives, a true crime story that recounts how Sarma Melngailis, a once-awarded vegan restaurateur behind the now-shuttered New York’s Pure Food & Wine, got involved with and married a conman named Shane Fox who took all of her restaurant’s funds under the promise that he would make her foodie dreams come true and make her beloved pitbull immortal. Sarma got hit with reality after getting caught while on the run after having stolen $2 million with Mark.

“I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. It was the most bizarre and surreal story I’d ever heard and I had to try and make sense of it,” Mark recalled to Yahoo! entertainment about his first impressions of the celebrity chef’s story. “How and why did this nightmare happen to someone like Sarma? It was also a story that I found deeply shocking and cruel and it felt important that it be told to a wider audience.”

Mark Emms Gave Bella A 10-Carat Engagement Ring

She also has her heart set on vintage Schiaparelli or Dior wedding dresses. “Every bride does not need one gown, but four!” she gushed to the outlet.

The Midnight Sun actress and Mark met in Ibiza at Cara Delevingne‘s Aug. 2022 birthday party. “It was love at first sight as the sun rose,”  she happily remembered.
