Emma Watson has her legal team locked and loaded after dozens of private pictures of her were leaked online. Originally rumored to be nude images, the pics are actually of the actress trying on outfits during a clothes fitting.

In a statement from Variety originally obtained by BBC News, Emma’s spokesperson said, “They are not nude photographs. Lawyers have been instructed and we are not commenting further.”

The statement came after social media posts alleged that naked photos of the Beauty and the Beast star had surfaced on a message board  known as the “dark web” which enables users to view and share things while remaining anonymous.

Sadly, this isn’t the first time this has happened to Emma. The 26-year-old was threatened with a nude photo leak in 2014 after giving a speech on gender equality.

We hope Emma can quickly put this matter to rest.
