LINDA Robson has hit back after she was involved in a horrible death hoax.
Rumours spread over the weekend that the 65-year-old had passed away – but she was quick to shut it down.
Sharing a video of herself pretending to rise from the dead, the Birds of a Feather star wrote: “Woke up to lots of messages and calls, apparently there has been a rumour I had passed away going around.”
Linda added: “You won’t get rid of me that easy!”
Her followers were horrified to hear about the cruel prank, with one writing: “Wtf that's not funny x nobody takes away my favourite old BIRD x”
A second said: “OMG that’s awful Linda, so people are so odd, nothing better to do with their time. X Sorry you have been through this.”

And another wrote: “OMG people have way too much time on their hands.”
Over the weekend Twitter was awash with tributes for the actress from devastated followers.
It comes just weeks after her fellow Loose Women star Denise Welch was also targeted by a similar hoax.
Her Wikipedia page was updated to claim she'd been involved in a bizarre accident with Big Brother stars Kerry Riches and Farida Khalifa.
A now-deleted paragraph read: "Denise Welch sadly was killed after being ran over by Kerry Riches' mobility scooter after it was hijacked in a drunken rampage by Farida Khalifa, hair and make up artist for the traveller and gypsy community."
But she Denise hit back, saying: "I'm alive and well and about to watch the jungle. Thanks for your concern."
