“It is an outrageous and despicable invasion of privacy for anyone to steal and illegally publish private intimate photos,” a spokesman of the skier said in a statement to The Big Lead.
“Lindsey will take all necessary and appropriate legal action to protect and enforce her rights and interests. 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.”

The graphic photos of Woods and Vonn were allegedly hacked from the pro skier’s phone. Woods was quick to threaten legal action and plans to sue if the photos aren’t taken down.
Victoria’s Secret Angel Stella Maxwell, singer Katherine McPhee, Miley Cyrus, Kristen Stewart and several others fell victim to the photo hack.
