Ruth Langsford has opened up about a rather embarrassing incident that took place over the weekend, when she accidentally shared an explicit picture on Twitter.
The TV star meant to share a snap of herself with her mum and her sister, as a Motherβs Day tribute, but was unaware that her camera roll was visible at the bottom - which unfortunately featured an x-rated meme.
Speaking on βLoose Womenβ, Ruth has set the record straight, explaining how she made the mistake.
She told her fellow panelists: βI was trying to find a pic of my mum and I zoomed in and screenshot it, but what I didnβt realise is that when you get sent those rude and amusing pictures on Whatsapp, it automatically gets saved into your camera roll.
βSo when I took the screenshot, you could see the image at the bottom of the screen.
βThose photos at the bottom of the picture were just in my camera roll. I blame the girlfriend who sends me those things. You know who you are.β
For anyone who wasnβt aware what happened, Ruth added: βThe picture was of the male anatomy.β
Oh dear.
The βThis Morningβ host subsequently removed the Twitter post and replaced it with a new one when her mistake was pointed out but unfortunately, it was a little too late.
Ruth isnβt the first star to make a social media faux pas, and weβre sure she wonβt be the last either.
Caroline Flack previously hit headline after sharing a little more than she intended, while Louise Thompsonβs boyfriend claimed she had been hacked when a seriously graphic image was posted on her Instagram.
