The Chase star Anne Hegerty has revealed ITV "threatened her with suspension" over a controversial post which she was forced to remove from her Twitter account last month.
The 60-year-old brainiac is one of the 'Chasers' on the hit British television quiz show, but during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine, hosted today by Christine Lampard, Hegerty admitted a recent tweet had landed her in hot water with the network.
"I tweeted a tweet last month, it got 25,000 likes before ITV ordered me to take it down and threatened me with suspension," said Hegerty.
"So yeah, ok, fine. I took it down."
As Hegerty and Lampard went on to discuss the perils of social media, Hegerty admitted she was sometimes unsure what was appropriate to share with her 11,100 followers.
