Hilary Duff has made it clear that she is appalled by the accusations that she is engaging in child sex trafficking with her own son. Over the weekend, a wild conspiracy theory spread after Hilary accidentally posted a photo of her 8-year-old son, Luca, fully nude. The actress promptly deleted the post once she was made aware, and later censored the same photo while showing her followers some family photos.

“Someone pointed out on Instagram that I did a nude of him, which I did, so we covered that up with a sticker,” she explained in the video. However, , and that by sharing the nude photo in the first place, she was sending out some kind of signal to predators. It’s important to note that there is absolutely no evidence of these claims.
It didn’t take long for Hilary’s name to start trending due to this conspiracy theory, and finally, she had to address the allegations. “Everyone bored af right now I know,” she tweeted, “but this is actually disgusting.”
“Whoever dreamed this one up and put this garbage into the universe should take a break from their damn phone,” she continued. “Maybe get a hobby.” Her current husband, Matthew Koma, supported her statement, retweeting it and writing, “This.”
Hilary and Matthew have a 1-year-old daughter, Banks Violet Bair, together, and she shares Luca with her ex-husband, Mike Comrie, a former Canadian hockey player.
