Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway has been accused of posting a topless photograph of her teenage daughter, Claudia Conway, on Twitter.
Social media erupted on Monday night after Conway’s account, @KellyannePolls, allegedly sha red a Fleet — a post on Twitter’s mobile platform that is meant to disappear after 24 hours — showing a partially nude Claudia, who is 16. The image has since been deleted, but other Twitter users say they took screenshots of it.
The situation then made its way over to TikTok, where Claudia often posts about the goings-on within her family. Over the course of the last year, the teenager has been sharing videos that appear to show her tumultuous relationship with her parents, Kellyanne Conway and vocal anti-Trump lawyer George Conway.
After commenters wrote on Claudia’s posts that Kellyanne Conway’s account had shared a topless photo of her, the teen made videos telling her followers, “I don’t know if this is a joke or not, but I’m really scared” and asking, “Is this real?”
In a since-deleted video, Claudia told fans: “I’m assuming that when my mom took my phone ... she took a picture of that so that was on her phone. I guess she accidentally posted it or somebody hacked her. But nobody would ever have any photo like that, ever. So, Kellyanne, you’re going to fucking jail.”
“I have no comment,” Kellyanne Conway told CNBC. Representatives for Claudia Conway did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment.
Federal law “prohibits the production, distribution, reception, and possession of an image of child pornography,” according to the Justice Department, which also states that “any violation of federal child pornography law is a serious crime, and convicted offenders face severe statutory penalties.”
A spokesperson for Twitter told HuffPost that “through technology and human review, we’ll proactively remove any images that violate the Twitter Rules.”
Alpine, New Jersey, Police Chief Christopher Belcolle told HuffPost via email on Tuesday that “an investigation is being conducted by the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office” and that “no additional information can be released.” The Conway family has a home in Alpine.
The Bergen County Prosecutor’s office confirmed “that each member of the Conway family has been fully cooperative throughout the investigation.”
Claudia also told fans in another n ow-deleted video to report the photo if they see it. The teenager commented on her own TikTok videos in Morse code and expressed her disbelief at the situation.

Maybe Huff Post needs to change their masthead to "All the News That's Fit To Print".
