9:46 AM PT -- A law enforcement source tells us the incident is under investigation.
9:14 AM PT -- Claudia's now running to her mom's defense and says she has faith and knows her mother would never intentionally post a topless pic of her on social media. Her father, George, tweeted a link to Claudia's TikTok ... where she posted a video also saying she would be taking a break from social media for the foreseeable future.
Claudia said, "We fight like mothers and daughters but we love like mothers and daughters." She also underscored the fact the video she posted is not being forced ... adding, "It's coming from me." She implored people worried about her to not call the authorities and for others to "please stop sending hate to my family ... I'm okay. We are okay."
Somehow a topless photo of 16-year-old Claudia Conway ended up on her mom, Kellyanne Conway's Twitter page ... and the teen vows her mom's going to jail over it.
Twitter users saw the pic posted to Kellyanne's Fleet story on Twitter Monday night. It was quickly deleted, but not before folks captured and shared it like wildfire. Claudia took to TikTok shortly after, and confirmed it's a legit photo.
The teenager says it was taken months ago, and her mom must've gotten it when she confiscated Claudia's phone during one of their frequent spats.
As for how it might've made its way to Kellyanne's Twitter account, Claudia speculates her ma either did it on purpose ... or she was hacked.
In any case, she clearly says Kellyanne's gonna pay for this -- legally speaking.
This is the latest dustup between the mother and daughter, who've been at each other's throats for a long time now, especially lately. As we reported, Claudia recorded herself saying Kellyanne was being abusive toward her, and even spurred someone to call in a welfare check, which resulted in a visit from cops.
We've been told the matter is still being investigated ... it's unclear how this new development might factor in, if at all.
One thing's for sure ... there doesn't seem to be any love lost in the Conway household these days.
