(KXAN) — Kellyanne Conway, one of former President Trump’s aides, is under fire after reportedly posting a topless photo of her 16-year-old daughter Claudia on Twitter.
The now-deleted photo was posted to Kellyanne’s official Twitter profile (@KellyannePolls) as a Fleet, a newer Twitter feature similar to an Instagram Story that disappears after 24 hours. But the photo was still able to be documented and should be reported immediately if seen.
Claudia is known for being an outspoken critic of her mother’s politics on TikTok, where the teen has over 1 million followers. She has also previously accused her mother of abuse and explained plans to seek emancipation from her parents.
i’m officially pushing for emancipation. buckle up because this is probably going to be public one way or another, unfortunately. welcome to my life

On Monday, she posted a video message confirming the picture was real. While it’s since been deleted, the video was recorded by several users.
In the deleted video, a distraught Claudia reportedly gave the following theory: “I’m assuming my mom took a picture of it to use against me one day and then somebody hacked her or something. I’m literally at a loss for words. If you see it, report it.”
Claudia reportedly followed up that video with another (also deleted, but recorded by other users), where she said, “Nobody would ever have any photo like that, ever. So, Kellyanne, you’re going to f—— jail.”
Several media outlets, including Variety, were unable to reach Kellyanne Conway for comment. Twitter, meanwhile, says it’s investigating.
The bio section of Claudia Conway’s TikTok profile now reads, “629 days left,” a seeming reference to when she’ll be able to be legally independent from her parents.
