London: the broadcaster Narinder Kaur says that since sexually explicit images made from her Instagram photographs with a nudification app appeared on X in November 2025 she has been tagged in at least 20 more deepfaked pictures and videos, and that she fell into a depression; no perpetrator has been identified (Daily Mail, 30 September 2026)

In a Daily Mail feature by Helen Carroll (30 September 2026) that quotes her at length, the broadcaster Narinder Kaur, 54, says that one weekday morning in November 2025 she opened X, where she has almost 80,000 followers, and found sexually explicit images of herself. According to the article, someone had taken screenshots of photographs she had shared on Instagram and removed her clothing using a so-called nudification app. She says other fake images and videos of her had circulated before, including some made to look as if she was being deported. Since the first image she has been tagged in messages containing at least 20 more deepfaked pictures and videos, including some linking her to Jeffrey Epstein.

She says she felt degraded, fell into a depression in the early weeks and did not want to get out of bed; her family persuaded her to see her GP, who suggested antidepressants, which she declined. She says the comments from people who believed the images were real were almost as devastating as the images, that images linking her to Epstein attack her integrity, and that she dreads her teenage children finding them. She has reported each image and had numerous police visits, but the perpetrators hide behind anonymous profiles and delete their accounts when reported, and none has been identified. She believes speaking out has made her more of a target.

The same feature includes the Labour MP Jess Asato, whose case is held separately, and a town councillor and university lecturer who says altered images posted in a local Facebook group led her not to stand for re-election.

She says sexually explicit deepfake images made from her Instagram photographs, and at least 20 more deepfaked pictures and videos, were posted and tagged to her on X, leaving her degraded and depressed, and that commenters believed they were real (her account to the Daily Mail).

She has reported each image and had numerous visits from the police; no perpetrator has been identified (Daily Mail, 30 September 2026). She has joined the Stop AI Abuse campaign.
