Alec Baldwin
Alec Baldwin has said he deactivated his Twitter account following the reaction to a comment he made about Gillian Anderson.
The Hollywood actor responded to a post about Anderson - who is American but played Margaret Thatcher in The Crown - "switching accents".
Baldwin wrote "switching accents? That sounds . . . fascinating", apparently a reference to his wife Hilaria, who was engulfed in controversy after allegedly faking her Spanish heritage.
