Channel 4 presenter Cathy Newman is among more than 250 British celebrities who have become victims of deepfake pornography.

It comes as part of an investigation from the channel which aired yesterday evening, following an analysis of the five most visited deepfake websites.

It found that 255 of the almost 4,000 famous individuals listed were British, with all but two being women.

Among them is the channel’s news presenter, Cathy Newman, who said she felt violated on watching digitally altered footage in which her face was superimposed onto pornography using artificial intelligence (AI).
