A US blog called Hollywood Unlocked has appeared to apologise for accidentally reporting the death of the Queen, who is battling Covid-19.
But the outlet's founder Jason Lee now claims the Twitter account that tweeted the apology was fake, and that he stands by the story, reports Variety.
The now-deleted tweet said it shared its "deepest apologies" to the royals, blaming the "embarrassing situation" on an anonymous intern.
"It was an accident and we're working hard to make sure that this mistake never happens again. The intern journalist was misinformed and published the draft post by mistake," the statement read.
