A website posted private images stolen off of the skier's phone.
Lindsey Vonn is putting her foot down.
The 32-year-old Olympian says she is taking legal action after a website published nude photos of both her and her ex-boyfriend, Tiger Woods.
The private images were reportedly stolen off Vonn’s hacked phone. “It is an outrageous and despicable invasion of privacy for anyone to steal and illegally publish private intimate photos," Vonn said in a statement to ET on Tuesday.
The skier plans to make those responsible pay for invading her privacy. “Lindsey will take all necessary and appropriate legal action to protect and enforce her rights and interests,” the statement continued. “She believes the individuals responsible for hacking her private photos as well as the websites that encourage this detestable conduct should be prosecuted to the fullest extent under the law.”
Vonn is currently preparing for the 2018 Winter Olympics and has been documenting her training process on social media for her fans.
Last week she posted a photo to Instagram of her lifting weights, writing: “Work never stops. These 2 are always watching. #TeamLV #goldgrind.”
