Old work colleagues spying on me

I Work for a large organisation , and I do use social media . I don’t post drunken photos , abusive content , anything like that . Just normal day to day things , and I do write personal things on there about life but it’s no secret . Somehow my old colleagues have found my certain social media page even though I’ve blocked them . And they’ve reported something I wrote on there about something personal that management do know about but it’s been taken out of context . I’m not in touch with my old colleagues and I’m not in trouble thankfully, as I deleted it when told and I also apologised that it had been taken out of context and management were fine and said they’d feed back, but I don’t know who’s passing the info on and not sure how to stop it other than don’t use social media ?

I can’t lose my job can I ? Again I haven’t posted anything bad and Management saw the post and told me that it had been taken out of context and to just delete it but I can’t help feeling sick ? Also found out I’m pregnant today which isn’t helping the nausea lol

Anyone else had similar ?? Please tell me you don’t think I’m a knob and that it’s ok to share personal stuff on my own personal page . I can’t stop thinking about it and I’m really emotional 😂
I wouldn’t mind if they spoke to me directly but they’ve bypassed me and just gone straight to the top !

"My employer has a policy where if you are found to mention anything about work good or bad, on your private social media you can face disciplinary action."

But then if you're looking for work the adviser might insist you have a Linked In profile so I don't think employers should be able to stop you posting your job on Linked In.

"Apologise and learn from it."

She hasn't done anything wrong, so need to apologise.

My heart sank when i saw this because I knew the thread would be full of pompous arses trying to give OP lessons about social media. OP hasn't done anything wrong!
