ITV legend speaks out after influx of messages and urges fans to ‘please listen'
The actress, 48, is best known for her role as Mandy Dingle on the soap, having appeared across several stints since 1995.
Taking to Instagram today, she decided to address a big issue that has had a number of her 217,000 followers duped.
'Please watch, please listen and please know the truth' she wrote, alongside a video.
Addressing the camera, the former You've Been Framed presenter said: 'Hello everybody, it's Lisa here. Now, I have to keep reiterating this, please, and please listen.'
'If something is not on my page – and my page is blue-ticked – then it is not real,' she stated, referencing the social media network's notable person verification system.
'It is AI pretending to be me, and there is nothing I can do about it. It's a hoax, it's a scam and it's a lie.
'So please, I'm begging you, don't click on it, don't believe it, don't read it, don't give it any attention. It's not true. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DLCdL26I4BA/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
'I have to keep reiterating this because I am inundated with people saying that I'm attached to things that I'm not. So please, if it's not on my page, it's not real and I have not endorsed anything of that like.'
She concluded: 'Listen to what I'm saying, and don't take it as the truth because it's not. From me to you, I'm so sorry that it's going on because it's not real and I have to keep telling you guys this.
'But just don't believe it. It's a hoax and a scam. It's not the truth, thank you for listening.'
This comes just one year on from Lisa addressing another identity scam, where fraudulent accounts posing as her obtained bank account details from Emmerdale fans.
'THIS IS A SCAM' she wrote at the time.

Double exit story confirmed in Emmerdale as the walls close in on killer John
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller) and his husband John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) make plans to leave Emmerdale in upcoming episodes, as each of them is struggling with a secret guilt. John carries a lot of guilt, obviously, what with him being responsible for the death of Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter), and for the death of a man called Owen he left to die and then framed for Nate's murder by writing a fake suicide note from him. Not to mention all the times he's drugged people or bashed them over the head and then 'rescued' them, just because he likes rescuing people and getting the glory for it. It's all quite a lot to deal with, and in episodes airing soon things start to spiral out of control. Liam (Jonny McPherson) is told by the police that they've found an inconsistency in the suicide note that was found with Owen's body and they're reopening the case, not satisfied any more that Owen really did kill Nate. John feels even more guilty when he sees what this news does to Nate's widow Tracy (Amy Walsh), someone he is actually fond of and who he wanted to protect by framing Owen. Meanwhile, Aaron is also feeling guilty, but for a wholly different reason. In a moment of passion, he and Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) sleep together. This happens as Robert hits a very low ebb, mainly caused by John's scheming to make him look bad in the eyes of his sister Victoria (Isabel Hodgins) and with Aaron. Aaron visits him and offers him sympathy, and then admits he's been keeping away from him because he still has feelings for him. One thing leads to another and they sleep together. More Trending Afterwards Aaron insists this was just a one-off and will never happen again, but Robert insists it's fate and they're meant to be together.

In the wake of this, Aaron feels that the only way forward is for him and John to leave the village and make a fresh start. This idea suits John perfectly, as it gets him away from the Nate Robinson investigation being reopened. The two make plans to take an extended holiday, but before they leave John has one more move to make and we hear him making a chilling phone call. Could Robert be in danger?

Peter Andre returns to social media with telling family snap after being slammed by ex Katie Price
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) PETER Andre has returned to social media with a VERY telling family snap, after being slammed by Katie Price. It came not long after his ex-wife Katie, 47, publicly hit out at the dad of two of her children and branded him a "fake saint". 6 Peter Andre has shared a telling family snap after his bombshell statement Credit: Getty 6 It came after his ex-wife Katie took a swipe at his statement where he said 'this ends today' Credit: Getty 6 Pete and Katie were married from 2005 to 2009 Credit: Getty 6 Peter shared this sweet family holiday snap Credit: Instagram The battle of the exes hit it's peak this week when Peter, 52, posted a statement on behalf of his family saying, "this ends today". In retaliation, Katie then shared her own social media post last night, where she was clearly taking a swipe at the Mysterious Girl singer. Now, in his first post since he released his bombshell statement about the on-going feud with Katie, Peter shared a sweet family photo on his latest Instagram Story. In the picture, the singer along with wife Emily and the three kids they share together, could be see standing united. They had their backs to the camera, and they were seen walking along the beach holding hands, as a show of solidarity. Pete simply wrote "Cyprus" over the photo. PETER RELEASES STATEMENT Peter's return to social media came after he addressed the on-going feud between his family and Katie. Tension has been high between the pair, as Katie blames her ex for a rift between her and Princess, 52. Pricey claims she was "banned" by Peter from appearing in her daughter's reality show, The Princess Diaries. On Thursday, the dad-of-five released a statement about his ex-wife saying he'd "stayed silent" for 16 years since their split in 2009. Princess Andre breaks silence on Peter and Katie's bitter feud after his blistering statement Pete said he chose to speak out now after Katie claimed she was being frozen out of Princess' burgeoning TV career. "The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight," Pete wrote in the letter published on social media. "For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood." Pete concluded: "Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations that I have yet to address. Those will be dealt with in the coming months." 6 The former couple share Junior, 20, and Princess, 18 Credit: Shutterstock Editorial KATIE BITE'S BACK Katie then responded yesterday with her own statement. Although she didn't mention Peter by name in her post, it was clearly taking a swipe at her ex following their public fallout. She wrote: "Saints and Sinners. As we know, in this life we are thought of as Saints and Sinners. "I know I will always be seen as a Sinner. That's fair, I allowed myself to fall into a reliance on drugs and alcohol. At times I was not the mother I should have been while I struggled with mental illness. Peter Andre's statement in full Peter hit back after Katie's claims on her recent podcast that she was being frozen out of Princess's career - despite Princess living with her. Peter wrote on Instagram: "For sixteen years I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silence has been incredibly frustrating. "That ends today. "The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight. "For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood. "In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before out of respect for my children." "In 2011 and 2015, publicly documented court cases found my ex wife had made false claims. She was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise, to me and my management. "The same falsehoods are being repeated today." "Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations that I have yet to address. Those will be dealt with in the coming months." His statement came just hours after Katie claimed that Princess was living with her on her latest podcast. She said: "I've missed out so much with Princess. I haven't watched the show, but, people have told me how proud I should be of the kids and how they Princess does talk highly of me all the way through it so although I'm not in the show she speaks about me all the time which is really sweet. "But why wouldn't she, because she lives with me. And this is another thing I need to clear up, the kids have never lived just with Pete, we've shared the kids." "I have been at times a poor friend, an awful sibling, and an untrustworthy partner. I've self-medicated, been unfaithful, damaged myself and those that I love." The lengthy post continued and then, in a clear swipe at Pete, she wrote: "Some Saints are fake. They play the victim and to succeed in life they need a at least a Sinner. Without the Sinner they don't get to be the Saint... Katie added: "As a Sinner - I sometimes get bored of these Saints." After meeting on I'm A Celebrity in 2004, Peter and Katie had a whirlwind romance which saw them wed the following year, but were divorced by 2009. The couple share kids Junior, 20, and Princess, 18, PRINCESS SPEAKS OUT It was not just the famous exes who were sharing their thoughts in public. Daughter Princess also spoke out about the rift between her parents. The teenager took to Snapchat for a candid Q&A with her followers yesterday, When one fan asked: 'Does it affect you even now when your mum and dad don't get on?', Princess responded with a short video message. 'To be honest it doesn't affect me. At the end of the day, they broke up when I was two years old so I don't even have any memory of them being together,' she said. Over the top of the clip, Princess wrote: 'I love my mum and dad and that's all that matters.'

MAFS UK star SPLITS from girlfriend as he strips off and joins OnlyFans
The reality star has had an off and off romance with his ex NEXT CHAPTER MAFS UK star SPLITS from girlfriend as he strips off and joins OnlyFans Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAFS UK star has split from his girlfriend and stripped off to join OnlyFans, in a new career move. The E4 star returned to his roots as a painter and decorator in recent months, following his failed TV marriage. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 A MAFS UK star has split from his girlfriend and stripped off to join OnlyFans, in a new career move Credit: mccarthy91_/Instagram 4 Ross confirmed that he and Madga have split up Credit: Instagram 4 The star has teased his brand new OnlyFans account Credit: mccarthy91_/Instagram But now Ross McCarthy, who starred on season nine of MAFS, has turned his attention to OnlyFans instead. Ross made history on the show as its first deaf groom, but he broke Sacha's heart after struggling with his anger issues. The reality star only started on the platform this week after 'thinking about it for a while,' and has shared some cheeky snaps on his social media, including one flashing his bum. Ross also confirmed he's 'been single for a while' after an on and off relationship with his ex-girlfriend Magda. Ross and Magda first split up in February but reunited just three months later in May 2025. But he's now confirmed that they've gone their separate ways again, and he's removed all traces of her from his social media. It comes after insiders told us how Ross and Madga struggled to make their relationship work previously. A source said at the time: 'Ross and Magda have gone their separate ways after failing to make their relationship work. 'He's removed all of his photos of them together from his social media, and they've both unfollowed each other.' Watch Mafs' Sacha break down in tears and storm out after giving Ross massive ultimatum Ross - who was paired with Sacha Jones for the most recent series of MAFS UK - skipped the explosive reunion, but that didn't stop his name cropping up. After the dramatic special aired, Sacha took to Instagram after she was accused of leaking information about an alleged fling between her Ross and Erica. In a long statement, she strongly denied that she was behind the story. "Apparently I leaked the story on Ross messaging Erica, when we was together, calling her beautiful," Sacha said. "I didn't deny it, that's true, but I wouldn't leak it. I don't care that much." Sacha described her time on the show with Ross as 'awful.' She told OK!: 'When I think of my time with Ross after the show, it's just dark. Dark. I can't think of one happy memory after the show. It was awful. The last happy memory I have is going to the first reunion together and putting on a strong front.'
