A fan of the Dublin twins was left shocked when Alexa said they had died aged 17.

Amazon's personal assistant Alexa killed off Jedward by accident.

The glitch was spotted when a fan asked the device how old the X Factor stars were.

Jamie Rai told The Sun that he turned to Alexa while watching the twins on Channel 4's Celebrity Coach Trip.

The answer worryingly stated that John and Edward Grimes had passed away on August 18th, 2011.

Amazon says it's now fixed the issue.
