Eloisa Pinto Fontes was found in a confused state, wandering through the slum “completely disorientated” by a local neighbourhood watch team.
They had been given a tip-off that the 26-year-old had been ambling around for two days and didn’t appear to know what was going on.
According to local media, Ms Fontes was found in the Morro do Cantagalo favela in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday.
She was carrying a rucksack containing documents of her contracts with international modelling agencies and references from international photographers.
