Jo Joyner: Bizarre ‘foot fetishist’ constantly changed size on Wikipedia

Jo Joyner had a creepy "foot fetishist" fan who changed the size of her feet on Wikipedia.
The former ‘EastEnders’ actress has opened up about the bizarre admirer, who would "constantly" edit her page on the online encyclopedia to make her foot size bigger than it actually is, while another fan would be sure to change it back.
Opening up about the unusual scenario, she told the Mirror: "I had a foot fetishist. He would change the size of my feet constantly to a size eight.
"Then I had another fan that used to go on there and change it back because they knew it was wrong but I could never get in touch. They are a size five. I’m 5ft 2in, I’d look like a clown if my feet were eight."
Meanwhile, the soap star – who starred as Tanya Branning from 2006 to 2013 before returning in 2015 and 2017 – insisted while she will always fight for equal pay, she doesn’t think it’s always "black and white", while praising Jake Wood (Max Branning).
She explained: "It is a delicate balance. I wouldn’t go back to ‘EastEnders’ and expect to get paid the same as Jake straight away because he’s shown them a loyalty by staying with it and being there, so it is tricky and it’s not as black and white."
The 41-year-old actress added she would always fight for "fair pay", and said if she had done the "same job" as a male co-star she would expect the same reward.
She said: "I’ve always made sure I was on fair pay. It’s been a bit of a thing of mine on jobs when I think it’s fair. If you are doing absolutely the same job then it’s shocking that it’s even been an issue or that we’re even talking about it. It’s unbelievable."
