An Italian Sky Sports reporter has spoken of the horror she experienced after naked photos of her were posted online by hackers and she has admitted that not all of the images are fakes.

Diletta Leotta, 25, who works for Sky Sports in Italy, told all about her shock at realising that her account had been hacked and that her private pictures had been shared with the world.

She told the Mirror: "My phone would not stop ringing with calls, messages, WhatsApp... I didn't cry at first. I found strength I didn't even know I had. But after three days, yes, I succumbed.

"Those photos maybe I sent to someone, perhaps a couple of them. I hadn't seen the pictures for years. I thought I had deleted them. I wouldn't even describe them as sexy. I became aware that they were part of my private archive. Someone must have intentionally hacked into my iCloud account."

The presenter, who has a massive following on social media, said she had even been accused of leaking the images herself for publicity, which she strongly denies.

She added: "I want to say to the girls or the boys who have experienced the same thing that you should not feel guilty. Everyone has the right to do what they want with their life, their privacy and their mobiles."

Former Liverpool and Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli supported Diletta, as he said: "Everyone is free to do what they want with their body, for better or worse. People who abused this situation are assholes."

Diletta is just one in a very long list of stars who have had their private accounts hacked and their pictures leaked. Last year Ryan Collins was sentenced to 18 months in prison for hacking the accounts of celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Scarlett Johansson.
