Sky Sports Italy presenter Diletta Leotta has found support from an unlikely quarter — Italian footballer Mario Balotelli who came out in support of the sports journalist in the nude picture controversy, where hackers posted naked photos of her online after hacking her iCloud account. The 25-year-old TV presenter claims that only a handful of the pictures and videos are authentic.

After her pictures were leaked online, Balotelli said: "Everyone is free to do what they want with their body, for better or worse. People who abused this situation are a**holes."
"I didn't cry at first. I found strength I didn't even know I had. But after three days, yes, I succumbed. Those photos maybe I sent to someone, perhaps a couple of them. I hadn't seen the pictures for years. I thought I had deleted them. I wouldn't even describe them as sexy. Someone must have intentionally hacked into my iCloud account," Leotta, who has more than a million followers on social media, was quoted as saying by The Sun.
Leotta said she had even been accused of leaking the photographs herself for publicity.
