Leslie, 48, wrote: "I feel like I’m in a personal hell. I didn’t do anything to deserve this. It’s just too much. It shouldn’t be like this. So hurt right now.

"I leave Twitter tonight with tears and a very sad heart. All this cause I did a movie. You can hate the movie but the s**t I got today...wrong."

Journalist Milo Yiannopoulous, 32, who tweeted under the name of @Nero has since been banned from Twitter for inciting the racist abuse Jones had to suffer.

Many people came out in support of the star including model Chrissy Teigen and original Ghostbusters star, Dan Ackroyd.

When she logged back on, Jones wrote: "Welp... a b**ch thought she could say away. But who else is gonna live tweet Game of Thrones!!"

She also thanked all of her supporters and wrote: "Thanks for the love and support I received! Made me feel real special."
