By the looks of things, hackers managed to obtain access to Lloyd’s iCloud account where she stored private photos, most likely taken with an iPhone and uploaded for backing up purposes. While it’s not clear how the breach occurred, Lloyd confirmed the hack in a message on Twitter.
According to the British star, the website that originally published the nude content has already removed it, and the police are currently investigating the hack.
“Yes my I cloud has again been hacked by some s**m *** this is now in the hands of my lawyers again! I won’t be made to feel embarrassed but thankful the website has been taken down already. Anyone finding this funny well shame on you! your personal stuff should be safe @Apple,” she said in her tweet.
The Sun reports that the 34-year-old model has been spotted leaving a police station on June 14, where it’s believed she reported the incident. No other specifics were provided, but an investigation has probably started and further details could be shared in the coming weeks.
2017 iCloud hack
This isn’t the first time when Danielle Lloyd is hacked and her private photos are stolen and published online. The British model’s iCloud account was compromised in 2017 as well, when attackers obtained access to her backups, stealing a total of eight different photos, including fully nude shots.
Lloyd reported the incident to law enforcement, and just like in this incident, several websites were requested to take the content down.
“Police are investigating how these images were taken from her private and personal iCloud – seemingly from a Jihad website who Danielle has been victim of and terrorised by for some time. We are currently taking steps to prosecute anybody that shares these online,” a representative for Danielle Lloyd said at that time.
