Vicky Pattison has discovered she is a victim of image based abuse. The former Geordie Shore star – who has worked with actors to create a deepfake porn video featuring her own image as part of a new Channel 4 documentary – has revealed how ‘takedown’ experts found 1,700 concerning results for her online.

‘I say in the pre-titles of the documentary that I myself have been a victim of sexually explicit, misogynistic abuse online,’ she told The Sun. While working on Vicky Pattison: My Deepfake Sex Tape, the 37-year-old star found material which is ‘dark in content’ featuring her on the internet.

‘Throughout this documentary, we actually realised that there’s content of me online that I was not entirely aware of,’ she explained. ‘It’s not AI generated but it is dark in content.’. The discovery was made during filming for an educational segment of the documentary to help teach people how to remove graphic content.

Experts used AI technology to ‘scrape’ the internet to help them find and remove the fake tape Vicky leaked as part of the programme. However, the software also found 1,700 concerning results, including anonymous videos of people pleasuring themselves while looking at her bikini photos.
On other sites, her bikini photos appeared alongside links directing users to AI apps to ‘undress’ the images. The content is deemed ‘image based abuse’, but because she is clothed in the bikini photos – which were taken consensually – it’s said that others sharing them online isn’t a crime.
