Paul Hollywood has deleted his Twitter account after being accused of buying thousands of fake followers. The New York Times had been investigating a US company who had been selling Twitter followers and Paul Hollywood’s name appeared on a list of people who had paid for them. When contacted by the New York Times, Hollywood deleted the account.
The Great British Bake Off star had 683,000 followers and was a prolific tweeter too. However, in some cases employees, agents, public relations companies, family members or friends did the buying so he may not even been aware of it.
