GB News reporter Ellie Costello, 29, said she was left shaking in terror during a 16-month campaign of harassment by Leo Jones, who also turned up at the TV studio where she works.

Ellie told Anne Diamond and Stephen Dixon on GB News Breakfast yesterday how her ordeal started with creepy messages and soon escalated.
Revealing how she was targeted on the day of the Queen's funeral, she said: "So by this point it had been going on for over a year...16 months in total.
