Television personality Narinder Kaur has reported a deepfake image to the Metropolitan Police after anonymous trolls superimposed her face onto a photograph of convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein with his last known girlfriend, Karyna Shuliak. The fake image, shared on X, shows Kaur's face on a woman in a black dress sitting next to Epstein, with her hand on his lap.
Kaur, known for her appearances on Good Morning Britain and Jeremy Vine, expressed her distress on X, writing: 'And still they are able to generate disgusting images to degrade me..now one with pedophile Epstein. People already wondering if this is true. Horrific.' She later confirmed to a supporter that she had reported the matter to the Met.
A source close to Kaur told the Mirror that she felt she had no choice but to involve the police, despite her reluctance to do so publicly. The source described a wave of AI-generated deepfakes targeting Kaur over the past month, including images of her being deported in a bikini and eating dog food on the Good Morning Britain panel, all designed to dehumanise her.
This is not the first time Kaur has been targeted by such abuse. In January, she discovered fake videos of her in sexual positions, including one depicting her kissing a man who had been trolling her online. She told the Guardian at the time: 'It is so confusing, for a second it just looks so believable, it’s very humiliating.' She also highlighted a racial element, with images of her being deported shared online.
Supporters have rallied around Kaur, reporting the posts and urging police action. Kaur thanked her followers for their messages of support, noting that the ordeal has been particularly hard on her children. The source added: 'She understands that some people might disagree with her opinions... but there is absolutely nothing in this situation that warrants the level of abuse directed at her.'
