Leo Jones

.

In 2022, the 44-year-old was given a five-year restraining order, following being found guilty of stalking GB News presenter Ellie Costello.

The campaign of harassment lasted almost a year and a half -  and culminated in Leo showing up at the TV studio after meeting Ellie during a live interview.

He pleaded guilty at St Albans Magistrates' Court to causing serious alarm, distress and mental anguish.

His sentence was a 26-week custodial sentence which was suspended for two years, as well as the five-year restraining order.

Leo was first interviewed by Ellie on GB News in August 2021, where he presented himself as a "travel expert," analysing the industry during COVID-19.

He further texted her with messages like: "You take my breath away","You motivate me beyond words", and perhaps the most disturbing, "You are my sunshine I love you."

As of 2023 he has switched careers to become a fitness instructor.
