Crossword Genius

Moved to be insincere (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

affected

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'moved' is the first definition.
('affect' can be a synonym of 'move')

'insincere' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'to be' is the link.

(Other definitions for affected that I've seen before include "Stirred" , "Artificial of manner, pretentious" , "False - unnatural" , "Made a difference to" , "Impacted on" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Sun.
