The presenter has spoken out about inappropriate behaviour from people online

But her increased profile has also seen trolls invade her social media pages.

Jones has previously shared strange messages from fans.

And she has now shared in detail how she feels about the disturbing DMs.

She said on her Instagram: “I sometimes get told that if I ignore these comments they’ll stop.

“That’s not true. These messages have come thick and fast for years and I kept quiet about it. It never stopped.

“I know we laugh at the vulgarity of them, but there’s also a real issue here with people feeling they can anonymously send explicit messages with zero repercussions.

“I share them because I want people to understand what I (and so many others) wake up to every, single day. So that people know this stuff is real and relentless.”

Jones’ post was triggered after she was sent yet another twisted DM.
