Jacqueline Jossa says trolls must be held to account over vile abuse she gets every day
Jacqueline Jossa has hit back at the vile trolling she gets on a daily basis, saying something needs to be done about it.
The former EastEnders actress, 28, took to her Instagram stories on Thursday morning while she was cooking, and complained about how “ill” she looked in the video.
She then got on to the subject of online abuse, and admitted she was shocked at how many people didn’t realise the extent of the trolling she and other celebrities get.
It comes after Jacqueline hit back at a troll for making unkind comments about her figure after her recent weight loss.

And on Thursday, she called for trolls to be held accountable for their actions.
She told her followers: “I’m quite shocked at how many people are actually shocked at the abuse we get online, like the trolls.”
“It’s every single day,” she added.

“Every single day without fail there will be someone in the DMs being absolutely vile to me, and there will be someone in the DMs being absolutely vile to every single person that’s in the public eye, saying horrible things, getting into their brains.”
She went on: “There should be something that’s done about it. Even something as simple as showing a form of ID before you get a profile.
“We should all be held accountable for our actions.

“We shouldn’t be able to make seven different accounts to abuse the same person, so something should be done about it.”
Earlier this week Jacqueline revealed that a troll sent her a message saying she was “getting fat”.
She fired back to him: “Oo really, you think? I think I’ve lost some weight… But you would know best babe.”

Jacqueline has recently lost 8lbs after going on a health kick.
She said recently on Instagram: “I have tried to be as good as possible. You guys know I’m on a bit of a healthy reboot plan.
“I think we’re going to be fine. I still feel really good and I definitely haven’t eaten as much crap as I would have during these times. So that’s good isn’t it.”
