Los Angeles, May 24
Actor Hilary Duff has shut down a “disgusting” conspiracy theory trending on Twitter that claimed she was involved in child trafficking.
On Saturday, Duff started trending on the microblogging site when a number of users made accusations of child trafficking against her, based on an Instagram story she posted containing photographs of her eight-year-old son Luca Cruz Comrie, whom she shares with ex-husband Mike Comrie.
Duff responded to the claims stating that the accusations were not only untrue, but also “disgusting”.
“Everyone bored af right now I know..but this is actually disgusting,” she wrote. “Whoever dreamed this one up and put this garbage into the universe should take a break from their damn phone. Maybe get a hobby,” she posted on Twitter.
