One big Twitter mix-up for Alex

HAVING a common name has its downfalls – as One Show presenter Alex Jones knows all too well. She has revealed her Twitter account was suspended because operators thought she was the American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones. Chatting to comedians Josh Widdicombe and Rob Beckett on their podcast, Parenting Hell, BBC star Alex, 46, said she clarified the mistake over messages meant for her namesake before her account was suddenly banned. Alex, left, says: ‘I get why he is banned but I’m quite nice and normal.’

Mr Jones, 49, was last year ordered to pay over £1billion for falsely claiming the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax.
