Food journalist Jack Monroe has taken to social media to issue a distressing update. The 35-year-old revealed that she is “very unwell” as a result of constant harassment - both online and in real life.
Jack’s emotional tweet began: “I’m not at home at the moment and haven’t been for some time - acting on police advice - and won’t be returning for the foreseeable future. As fun as it is to watch them all ringing my video doorbell and peering in my windows, fleet streets finest should probably save themselves the fruitless trip to the seaside and leave me and my family the f**k alone.
“I’ve had to split my family up and we are all staying separately for our own safety. I’m in absolute f***ing HELL, thank you very much to the trolls who have been sharing my home address all over the internet with no consideration for the CHILD who lives there. Because yes, despite their ridiculous lies, I am the parent with primary custody of my son, and always have been. He thankfully has no idea what’s going on, and no longer reads my Twitter because it’s too toxic and upsetting for him. Leave me alone so I can get well, please.” For more showbiz and television stories get our newsletter here.
