Myleene Klass has had three separate Instagram posts banned by the advertising watchdog. The action has been issued after the singer and presenter failed to make clear to her followers that they were ads.
The posts, promoting a book she had written, titled They Don’t Teach This At School, as well as products sold by the retailer Next and footwear brand Skechers, all failed to include any sort of indication they were ads, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has found.
In a reel on Klass’s Instagram on May 13, text stated: "What do you wish they’d taught at school? I asked my mates …. accompanied by a video of various celebrities answering the question. The video ended with Klass being shown holding a copy of her book, while on-screen text stated "Wish granted".
