Jeremy Clarkson's daughter hired investigator to save family from online trolls

After being subject to vile abuse online, Emily Clarkson did all she could to protect her family from the online trolls and managed to track them down with thanks to a personal investigator
Jeremy Clarkson's daughter Emily has taken drastic measures to protect her family as online trolls attacked her personal life online. In recent weeks influencers and celebrities have opened up about the toll online gossip site Tattle Life has taken on their lives, with personal lives, cruel comments and addresses being shared on the platform.
Since Tattle Life's anonymous owner was outed in a Northern Irish court last month, victims of the vicious forum openly spoken out about the impact it's had on them. Jeremy Clarkson's eldest daughter is among those speaking out after she resorted to hiring a private investigator to help uncover the trolls targeting her and her family.


Speaking on her podcast Should I Delete That? with co-host Alex Light, Emily said the gossip site had left her "broken" and the cyberbullying got to bad she needed help stopping the abuse. Emily said: "Tattle has been the biggest thorn in our sides. You and I, Al, have genuinely been heartbroken by this; it's affected me to the point where I've had to block it on all devices."
Tattle, which attracted 12 million visitors a month has been around for nearly a decade, and was originally created as an open platform for discussion, but has been known as a "troll site" attacking celebrities and internet personalities.
Emily, who is an author, is just one of thousands of people being trolled by anonymous Tattle users and the 30-year-old said her pregnancy with her second child, Xanthe was ruined by trolls on the site who leaked details of her pregnancy. "I was so broken by it, I haven't been able to check it since Arlo was born, if they say anything bad about my kids I'm gonna die," Emily further detailed.

Once her pregnancy had been leaked online by Tattle Life users, Emily got the private investigator to track down the culprit. "It felt really nice to know they could be found, and if you push me too far, I know who you are," she said. "If I read my thread, I'd think I'm the worst person in the world.

Emily said: "I'm incredibly good at finding people on the internet," and her investigation skills led her to find one Tattle Life user who referred to Emily as 'thrush' as she was 'annoying', but on Instagram, the user would message Emily being as nice as pie.
To show her she knew who she was, Emily decided to send her a picture of thrush medication on Instagram and was swiftly left alone by the troll. "She saw it and never replied," Emily laughed. However she said the comments not only "broke her" but could also have a detrimental effect on her career including work partnerships and relationships as those targeted never get a chance to defend themselves.

EXCLUSIVE Opening up my relationship has only made it stronger... I love helping my fiancé find other girls to sleep with

A woman who decided to open up her relationship has revealed how becoming polyamorous made them even stronger. Cami Strella and her fiancé, Lev Lieben, first got together in 2021 and they started off as monogamous. But two years into their relationship, she decided she wanted to explore her sexual side even further, so she suggested they try having an open relationship. And while she was nervous about allowing her partner to have sex with other women at first, she now believes it has made their relationship even better. Not only are they completely supportive of each other's hookups, but she now 'enjoys' helping Lev find other girls to sleep with and hearing about his sexual endeavors with others. While chatting with the Daily Mail, Cami explained, '[It was a little bit of a difficult adjustment] in the beginning. 'But it was something we honestly both needed based on how both our brains work.' According to Cami, the key to making it work is that they're both 'completely transparent' about their relationships. And she insisted that there is absolutely zero jealousy between them. 'Jealousy stems from a sense of ownership over somebody and we don't play by those rules,' she continued. 'We all (meaning me, Lev, and our other partners) have free will and freedom to do as we please as long as it's safe and involves informed consent (meaning, everyone we are involved with also knows we are polyamorous).' The influencer, who has over 418,000 followers on Instagram, confessed that both of them have 'fallen in love' with other people, but are still fiercely dedicated to each other. They even have a 'shared calendar' to see when each of them have dates or hookups planned with others. 'I'd argue that most monogamous relationships lack a lot of communication and honesty about sexual needs and desires,' she said. 'People tend to be really shy when it comes to talking about sex (even with long time partners!) and being poly for me puts it all right in the open for all of us.' Cami previously told Jam Press that they sometimes share partners, as she likes to sleep with women that Lev says are 'great in bed.' According to Cami, the key to making it work that they're both 'completely transparent' about their relationships. She's seen left with another man and he's seen right with another woman 'I really enjoy helping Lev find dates or hearing about his sex life with others,' she dished. 'A few times, when he's told me a particular woman was great in bed, I've even reached out to them myself – and ended up having sex with them. 'I like sharing Lev because he's an amazing person and I like the idea of other people recognizing this.' Cami told Jam Press that there is 'nothing wrong with their relationship' and that their connection is deeper than ever. 'The sex that Lev and I have is very different to the sex I have with anyone else,' she shared. 'We have a deep connection that has only gotten stronger with time.' She said she hopes by sharing their story online it will open others' eyes to the benefits of polyamorous relationships and help end the stigma around it. 'A lot of people don't realize that this is a way of life or that it's an option they could try, which is why I feel it's important to share our experience,' she explained. 'It is a level of intimacy very few people will ever understand – but for us, it's been incredibly fulfilling. 'It's very normal to feel a bit awkward at first, but once you unbridle yourself from the concept of monogamy, it's really freeing.'

Inside Drake's EPIC Wireless after-party with A-list celebs and OnlyFans star after fans moan final show was cut short

Scroll down to read more on the rising star that has teamed up with Boy George and which major music star has released a secret album AFTER TWERK PARTY Inside Drake's EPIC Wireless after-party with A-list celebs and OnlyFans star after fans moan final show was cut short THE last night of Drake's three-show extravaganza ended when he left the stage after 40 minutes — leaving his fans fuming. But I reckon I know why the IDGAF rapper might have needed to get away sharpish from London's Wireless Festival on Sunday — and it wasn't just the energetic performance, complete with twerkers. 11 Drake's three-show Wireless Festival extravaganza ended when he left the stage after 40 minutes - angering fans 11 The rapper threw an epic party on Saturday night with A-Listers and an OnlyFans model in attendance Credit: Getty My insiders reveal the Canadian star threw an epic party on Saturday night — which saw him partying at Mr Porter in Mayfair until after 5.30am. A source said: 'After his back-to-back shows on Friday and Saturday, Drake had a party. 'He hired out Mr Porter in Mayfair and was seen arriving around midnight. 'There were loads of celebs there like Casey Affleck and Sacha Baron Cohen. Weirdly, Lily Phillips — the X-rated adult performer — was also on the guest list. 'The party went on all through the early hours of Sunday morning, with Drake finally heading home not long before 6am. 'It was a great bash and everyone who came out looked like they'd had a really good time. 'Drake looked a bit tired when he came out with some of his entourage, so it's not surprising that his final show at Wireless was cut short. 'He probably needed some extra sleep.' After his final show at Finsbury Park, North London, Drake took to Instagram to speak directly to his fans and said: 'Thank you London. Kendrick Lamar slams rival Drake with diss track Not Like Us at Super Bowl halftime show 'Need some time to process what just happened so I don't have my usual caption . . . just thank you so much for the best three nights of my performance career.' Drake's fans, who had tickets to his final performance on Sunday night, were not too impressed though, and rightly so. His shows on Friday and Saturday ran for 90 minutes, with the latter featuring 13 special guests. On Sunday, the official setlist had advertised two sets for Drake, one at 6.25pm and one at 8.55pm. But the first randomly disappeared from the schedule, with Drake coming on after Burna Boy had finished. 11 Drake seen leaving Mr Porter Restaurant at 5:30am Credit: No Credit His first track was an unreleased collaboration with Central Cee, who was seen mouthing the words from the front row, which was projected on to big screens. One concert-goer told me Drake then raced through hits, with a surprise appearance from Nigerian rapper Rema and Jamaican dancehall star Vybz Kartel. There was then only time for a few more tracks, with Drake finishing to Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You for a third night in a row. I'm a big fan, but I can understand why ticket holders for the final night felt short-changed. I'd have been raging. Chris plane ad prank takes off 11 Chris Stark gave racegoers a laugh at Newmarket Credit: Getty CHRIS STARK proved why he's one of the funniest blokes on the radio when he gave racegoers a laugh at Newmarket. The Capital Breakfast host played a DJ set on Ladies Day and called up Zoe Lister – the voice of Jet2 holidays ads – to see if she'd appear when he played Jess Glynne's Hold My Hand, which blasts out of speakers on board every Jet2 flight. Chris said: 'So I'm DJ-ing at Newmarket and why don't you come along and maybe we can bring you out and do it live?' She then stunned the crowd by picking up the mic and doing the spiel we hear on the adverts. Tim & Co: We are back 11 The Charlatans are back with their 14th studio album, pictured singer Tim Burgess Credit: The Mega Agency THE CHARLATANS are back with their 14th studio album, We Are Love. The 11-track record, out on October 31, is the first album from the group since 2017's Different Days. The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire and their own Big Mushroom space in Cheshire. Singer Tim Burgess said the record was inspired by the concepts of hauntology and psychogeography – which to us normal people is how geographical environments influence human emotions. Tim added: 'The whole idea of hauntology and psychogeography is represented by us going back to Rockfield, where so much history has happened for The Charlatans. 'That was important as a way of honouring every member who's played in the band. 'So we're honouring ourselves, our past, feeling that energy and reincarnating it, doing something fresh, brand new.' The group have also announced a six-date UK tour, kicking off at the O2 Academy in Leeds on December 6. They will also play Stoke, Bath, London, Manchester and Glasgow. Welcome back, lads. Dan has gotta tie shorts 11 Daniel Bedingfield was performing at an event in Surrey when his shorts fell down mid song Credit: Rex DANIEL BEDINGFIELD had to take inspiration from his 2002 hit Gotta Get Through This after having a mare at Pub In The Park. He was performing at the event in Reigate, Surrey, when his shorts fell down mid song. Daniel, brother of Natasha, was forced to run off stage and get them sorted. Laughing about it, he said: 'Little known fact . . . if your pants are falling down, you can't do a gig.' After getting himself back on track, Daniel went on to introduce his next song, warning the children in the audience he was about to say some rude words. The singer joked: 'OK, here we go. Kids, you are going to learn a lot of swear words in this song.' At least the shorts stayed up for that one, Dan. J-Lo's sparkle returns 11 J-Lo turned up the heat by performing in a crystal-embellished bodysuit during her Up All Night Tour Credit: The Mega Agency JENNIFER LOPEZ is back on top form after her split from Ben Affleck. She turned up the heat by performing in a crystal-embellished bodysuit during her Up All Night Tour, currently in Spain. This is J-Lo's first tour since 2019's It's My Party, but she's not lost her ability to put on a killer show as she smashed through songs including Get Right, Love Don't Cost A Thing and Let's Get Loud. She also revealed her new track Wreckage Of You, a ballad she wrote not long after her split from Ben. The song has not yet been released but the lyrics are cutting: 'It was perfect when you made me believe. 'Really got only greater for me. And it made me stronger, stronger, bulletproof. 'Now watch me climb out of the wreckage of you.' Stevie's salute 11 Stevie Wonder celebrated a set at BST Hyde Park by throwing an after-party for his closest family and friends Credit: BETHAN MILLERCO / BEEM STEVIE WONDER celebrated a victorious set at American Express Presents BST Hyde Park by throwing an after-party for his closest family and friends. My mole revealed the Signed, Sealed, Delivered singer hosted a bash at the Great Lion Bar backstage and gave an emotional speech. They explained: 'Stevie was one of the few big stars to throw a party after performing and it was really special. 'His two daughters, Aisha and Zaiah, and two sons, Kailand and Mandla, were there too and Stevie got up on the mic to give a speech. 'He thanked them for all the support. It was really emotional.' The stars were out in force for his set, with JB Gill telling me he once bumped into him and told him all about JLS. He told me backstage: 'I've actually met him in an airport lounge at Heathrow Airport. 'He was so nice. We were on our way to LA and I walked into the lounge with the boys, and Stevie was sitting in the lounge, so we had to say hello. 'He's a music purist so he had an inkling of who JLS are and our music. 'It's funny, a lot of people who are into music in the States, no matter how big they are, know who's who and what's what. 'I remember meeting Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber.' JB is also lobbying to get a set at the event in the coming years, adding: 'We're still working on JLS headlining BST Hyde Park. 'It's going to happen, watch this space.' All the lovers came out for Stevie too on Saturday, with AJ Odudu snogging her fiancé Peter Gibson during his set, while Jade was spotted with her boyfriend Jordan Stephens. Dua Lipa and Callum Turner were also spied locking lips during Neil Young's set over the weekend, with my mole saying: 'They were late but had a massive snog before taking their places in the VIP suites. 'They are clearly madly in love.' George: Worricka a top boy 11 Boy George has teamed up with rising star Worricka for a track called Mesmerised Credit: Press Handout BOY GEORGE has teamed up with rising star Worricka for a track called Mesmerised. The record out on July 24, is a funky electronic single mixed with classic vocals from the Culture Club frontman. Boy George said: 'I love Worricka's jazzy tones and we have worked on a few things together. 'I don't know why we have never written together, but we should. 'He sounds great doing reggae and he brings a familiar flavour with his voice but he still sounds like himself. 'I hear a bit of Jessye Norman and that's serious praise.' Worricka added: 'It's about the first moments of infatuation when you meet someone on the dance floor in a club. 'We shared the stage for the first time many years ago at The Jazz Cafe in London when George asked me to join him to open a charity show. 'Now we share the stage once again with Mesmerised.' Kaisers reigning in Spain 11 Kaiser Chiefs pulled in a huge British crowd at Mad Cool Festival in Madrid, pictured frontman Ricky Wilson Credit: EPA KAISER CHIEFS pulled in the biggest British crowd at Mad Cool Festival in Madrid over the weekend. One of my mates, who was down at the front, told me Spanish fans started legging it after mosh pits started springing up near the stage. 'It was chaotic but amazing,' they said. 'The locals didn't seem used to having Brits going absolutely bananas, and left the mosh pits well alone.' Frontman Ricky Wilson tried his best with the lingo but said he was struggling. He joked with fans and said he wished he had 'paid more attention to my Spanish lessons in school', before adding with a laugh, 'I hate myself.' It then got even funnier when he said: 'Nous sommes Kaiser Chiefs,' before realising that was French for 'We are Kaiser Chiefs,' not Spanish. I'll be getting you a Duolingo subscription for Christmas, Ricky. News Just-in 11 Justin Bieber just dropped surprise album Swag Credit: instagram/lilbieber JUSTIN Bieber is raising a glass of plonk to himself and he's got good reason to. The singer, who's just dropped surprise album Swag, will be back in the Official Charts this week. Justin celebrated its release on a yacht in the Med with his supermodel missus Hailey. Daisies, a song from the 21-track record, is on course to hit No5 on Friday. If he holds the position, the song will become Justin's 28th Top 10 hit. I can imagine there will be more corks popping come Friday.

Wimbledon 2025: Absolutely Everything We Know About Jannik Sinner's Love Life

After two weeks of intense tennis (and the obligatory celeb spotting, of course), Wimbledon has come to an end, with Jannik Skinner being crowned the men's champion. In a tense match, Sinner triumphed over Carlos Alcaraz, becoming the first Italian to win the singles titles at Wimbledon. The victory was extra sweet for Sinner, who previously lost to Alcaraz in the French Open final. The trophy was presented by Kate Middleton, and Sinner also got the chance to speak to Prince George and Princess Charlotte. Speaking about a conversation he had with the young royals, Sinner said: 'I asked the kids if they play tennis and asked them what kind of rackets they play, these kind of things.' With Sinner in the headlines, there's lots of interest in this personal life - especially who he is dating. On Google, search for 'Jannik Sinner girlfriend' is up by 1,000%. In a press conference in May, Sinner shut down any rumours that he was in a relationship. 'There's a lot of attention,' he said. 'Also, off the court, I was surprised to see some pictures, which, nothing serious. I'm not in a relationship!' However, some recent reports have linked Sinner to model Laila Hasanovic. Laila is an influencer from Denmark, and she has over 350,000 followers on Instagram. She has recently been spotted at some of Sinner's matches, including at Wimbledon. Previously, Laila dated Michael Schumacher's son, Mick, for around three years. The couple reportedly separated earlier this year, although Laila clearly made an impact on him - Hasanovic was reportedly among the few people who were allowed to visit Michael. Of course, the reports of a budding romance between Sinner and Hasanovic are all just speculation at this stage, and neither party has confirmed this is the case. Yes! Jannik used to date Anna Kalinskaya, who is a Russian tennis player. They went public with their relationship in May 2024, but confirmed their split a year later. According to Sinner said last year: 'Yes, I'm with Anna, but we keep everything very confidential,' adding ' I won't say more.' Anna is a talented tennis player. As of July, 2025, she is ranked 39th on the WTA website. She has had success in three double titles on the WTA Tour and one single title on the WTA Challenger Tour, and gave an incredible performance at the 2024 Australian Open, where she reached the quarter finals. She also finished as a runner-up at the 2024 Berlin Ladies Open. With them both being tennis stars, it's no surprise that Jannik and Anna first crossed paths on the tennis circuit. When they were together, they regularly stepped out to support each other at their matches, and were spotted training together during a practice session ahead of Wimbledon 2024. Jannik confirmed he was single in May 2025, while speaking at a press conference during the Italian Open, although he didn't give a reason why their relationship came to an end.
