Happened last night. Looks like a lot of his old tweets have been deleted. I wonder if his DMs were read.

He should have had multi factor authentication on to help reduce the chances of this happening.

Saw this on another forum. How interesting, he must be going nuts.

I don't think it'd be too difficult to work out his password 😂

Oh no, I can't believe someone has invaded his privacy. I do hope none of his personal conversations are leaked to the press.

I know my youngest adult son could barely read them to me for laughing 🤣

I see he has still not got it up and running yet. And he has so much to say on Meghan Markle things

How so? does it not require at least a password with all the normal elements?

Pretty poor if they allow easily guessable words, I assumehats what you mean

Probably something to do with Arsenal?

I wonder if he’s so quiet because he’s currently negotiating a deal to stop his DM’s being leaked?

The Guardian headline says hacker "shares false information and racial slurs"
So how did anyone notice anything was amiss?

Come on Mr or Mrs Hacker, leak his photoshopped pictures of him marrying Meghan with Ronaldo officiating...

Interesting.

It shouldn't take too long to restore a Twitter account.
Maybe his email account got hacked as well - he might have used the same password

Poor old Piers; he's probably wishing it happened to his old crony, Jeremy instead. I wonder who targeted him.

Love it.
