Former Steps star Ian 'H' Watkins has been left furious as his face continues to be linked with the stories about convicted sex offender and form Lostprophets lead singer Ian Watkins.

H recently received a high court apology from E! Online after the site mistakingly used his picture, but he took to Twitter to point out that Google are still using the wrong images.

H tweeted: "SORT THIS OUT...@CBSNEWS @google!!!! I am very upset...Again"

Lawyers of H have been in contact with Google over the "damaging, false and defamatory" images that have been appearing in stories of a convicted paedophile.

The singer’s agent Ashley Vallance, said: "Ian is astonished that in spite of yesterday's public apology from E! Online, Google have now created far more damaging and far reaching false and defamatory coverage linking our client to the appalling crimes of the Lostprophets singer."

A spokesman for Google UK has addressed the issue, but failed to apologise for any distress caused.

The statement read: "For some specific searches Ian H Watkins' picture is appearing in our results because he is relevant to the story having received a court apology. We are looking into the issue he raises."
