A Place In The Sun presenter Sara Damergi, 39, said she was left feeling “intimidated” after the male culprit hacked into her emails and photos from her personal device.
Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, Sara said she has increased security at her London home to protect her,self her husband and their baby son Oliver.
She said: “That was stressful… people hacking into your emails and photos and putting your address online.
“Things like that… you do feel intimated.

“That seems to have all calmed down now, so hopefully I don’t need to think about that anymore.”
Earlier this year, Sara revealed how she was invited her to a fake gig by somebody pretending to be Russell Brand, 44.
She said: “I had booked to see Russell Brand and then I had an invite to go and meet him.
“I realised it was not real because I started to get emails saying, ‘Reply to me now’, so I did some research.
“It was a strange guy and I reported it to the police.”
She added the person had claimed to be somebody from ITV and also invited her to an audition.
ITV later reported it to the police after other television presenters were reportedly contacted by the same person.
Elsewhere, Sara Damergi said she is unsure about when she will be returning to A Place In The Sun.
Sara went on maternity leave last year, but admitted she is yet to confirm a date to return to the show.
She said: “I haven’t been doing that lately [filming for the show].
“I took some time out when I had my son, so really the podcast [Lifehackers] is my first door with getting back into things again.
“I think we are due to discuss it with them… we’ve had a talk about going back but I don’t really know.”
Meanwhile, Sara has been presenting podcast Lifehackers, alongside her Coast Vs Country co-star Kerr Drummond.
She said: “It’s really good fun, we are basically looking for the best life hacks, it can be about anything.”
A Place In The Sun continues today at 4pm on Channel 4.
