Laura said it was 'worrying' how many people had contacted her about the fake profiles

Sitting in her living room in a cream top and with her short blonde hair tousled, Laura's post was captioned: "Not quite sure what is wrong with people!!! This is my ONLY account!"

She said in the video: "I'm posting this story because I'm being contacted now by quite a lot of people, a worrying amount of people actually, some of them are friends of mine, genuine friends, telling me there's another Instagram account that's contacting them, telling them it's my back up account and sending them private messages and fake photographs.

"Super imposing images and messages and even exchanging a mobile number that isn't me.

"I'm not what's apping anyone, it's just really actually quite worrying that this is what people are doing."

The Channel 4 star continued: "This is my only account, and I'm actually tempted to share, somebody on here has shared the phone numbers that's contacting people pretending to be me.

"If you hear from these numbers, please block them and actually, even report them to the police, I don't know how people can get away with it, it's disgusting."

Laura concluded: "This is my only account, and if you get any messages from anyone else, delete and block."

She then shared three phone numbers in another story post and added: "Don't know who this is but can you stop pretending to be me!!!"
