Emmerdale’s Bernice Blackstock star Samantha Giles quits Twitter after Elon Musk’s ‘rubbish’ change

Emmerdale’s Samantha Giles has decided to leave Twitter after Elon Musk’s controversial new change.

The new update has affected a number of celebrities who have a Blue Tick as they risk being unable to have mobile phone authentication for security if they don’t pay and subscribe to Twitter Blue. The soap star, who is known for playing Bernice Blackstock, has shared her frustration on the new change and went straight to Twitter to announce she will now be leaving the social media app.

Announcing the news with her followers, she wrote: “Think I’ll be coming off Twitter folks- I’m not paying for blue ticks and it’s saying I have to have another authentication method like a key or something which is rubbish! You can find me on Instagram - I'm @sammeegee. I’ll be posting more on there. X”
