Songs Of Praise star Aled Jones says his Twitter was hacked after VERY rude photo is posted on his account
SONGS Of Praise star Aled Jones said his Twitter was hacked after a very rude photo was posted on his account.
The singer, 50, apologised to fans after a close up picture of a man's crotch in black Calvin Klein boxer shorts was posted on Sunday.
The image was posted as a Fleet, content that disappears 24 hours after it is shared, similar to an Instagram Story.
Writing on Twitter, Aled said: "I've been hacked sorry everyone! Jeez xxx."
He claimed he didn't even know what a Fleet was, adding: "Never heard of it!"
Afterwards he explained: "All back to normal - passwords change - that was an interesting 20 mins - especially when I'm watching John Wick with the mother in law!!!"
Aled shot to fame in 1985 for his version of Walking in the Air, the song behind Channel 4's Christmas short film The Snowman.
The song managed to reach number five in the UK singles chart.
Aled went on to have a successful music career, releasing 16 albums by the age of 16 and selling over six million copies.
The ex-choir boy later received an MBE in 2013 for his services to music and broadcasting.
He became a radio presenter for Classic FM in 2002 before becoming the face of Songs of Praise in 2004.

The star released his most current album, Blessings, last year.
