The document also read, "She was caused to be sick, sore, lame and disabled; was confined to home and bed; was caused to sustain a loss of enjoyment of life; she became incapacitated from the duties of her occupation, sustaining wage and economic loss; has incurred, and will in the future continue to incur, expenses for the treatment of her injuries; she became obligated to expend monies for physicians’ services and other medical care and treatment."

The reality TV star dated TV host and producer Seacrest from 2003 to 2005, as per reports. Before her current profession as a sommelier, Wall made appearances on TV shows like 'Married… with Children' and 'Entourage', according to IMDB.

In June 2024, a passenger traveling on an Air India flight to San Francisco reportedly found a blade-like piece of metal inside a sweet potato while eating a meal on the plane.
