OLYMPICS HELEN IN TOPLESS VIDEO LEAK
TV star Skelton’s shock over web clip
GORGEOUS Olympics host Helen Skelton was left red-faced last night after a topless sunbathing tape leaked online, just days after she was trolled for her sexy TV wardrobe.
SAUCY shots of BBC babe Helen Skelton sparked an internet storm last night.
Footage of the presenter exposing her boobs was uploaded to an adult website.
It soon racked up thousands of hits as fans clamoured to see it.
In the four-minute clip Helen, who once presented kids’ show Blue Peter, is seen on a beach wearing just a pair of shorts.
Sources close to the blonde have claimed she was 17 at the time.
One pal said: “Helen was on holiday in France.
“She was enjoying her holiday and relaxing in the sun.
“She had no idea she was being filmed, so this leak will be quite a shock for her.”
Mum-of-one Helen, 33, is currently fronting the BBC’s coverage of Rio 2016 and her eye-catching outfits have made her a national talking point over the past week.
One insider said: “This is a complete nightmare for Helen.
“She is really keen to be taken seriously as a presenter.
“Getting the chance to be part of the BBC’s team in Rio was a massive opportunity.
“But this topless footage of her appearing online could cause problems. It is likely BBC bosses will want to have a meeting about it.”
Helen has become an internet sensation since the start of the Games thanks to her sexy wardrobe choices.
The host has appeared wearing low-cut dresses and short skirts. They have been a hit with many viewers but also made her a target for nasty online abuse. Some sick viewers branded her a “whore” and a “slut” in cruel posts and accused her of being “inappropriate”.
Other viewers have even claimed they saw her knickers during one broadcast.
One posted: “That dress worn by @BBCSport presenter #Helen Skelton was not appropriate. She was representing @BBC in front of the world.”
Another wrote: “Helen Skelton must be trying to win a bet with her slut mates.”
And one even posted: “Put those shoulders away you whore.” Helen was previously targeted by trolls when she fronted coverage during the London 2012 Olympics.
After getting a series of sick messages she shut down her Twitter account.
Helen later returned to the social media site and now has almost 110,000 followers.
Her dad Richard spoke out last week in a telly chat on This Morning and insisted: “She’s not really bothered about this.”
Many television viewers sent messages of support.
One told her critics: “To the people who have problems with visible legs, perhaps you shouldn’t be watching the swimming?”
