According to a statement made by Campbell, Yunadi got no financial support from her father, and Campbell is the one who made it possible for Yunadi to go to school in the United States.[5][6]

Astrid Yunadi's father also had conflict with her boyfriend, Donny Leimena, who has been reported to the police for defaming Fredrich as a lawyer.[7][8][9]
