Model and radio host Kelly Brook is feeling “hurt” and “betrayed” after her ex-boyfriend, Danny Cipriani, claimed she went on a secret holiday with him – while she was dating rival rugby hunk Thom Evans.
In his bombshell autobiography, Who Am I? , former England rugby star Danny claims he was “devastated” when Kelly, 43, began dating Thom, 38, shortly after they ended their two-year relationship – and met up with her “secretly” in Mauritius behind his pal’s back.
Last week a source told new that Kelly – now married to Italian model Jeremy Parisi – feels completely betrayed by the claims as she believed Danny, 38, would never kiss and tell.
“Kelly’s devastated because she’s got a whole different side to the story,” says our source. “She’s feeling really betrayed and is absolutely livid, especially about the bit about him secretly meeting her behind Thom’s back. She was very kind to him in her book and didn’t say a lot of things she could have said.
“She feels he’s crossed the line. He always said he would never sell stories and he was never into that and he’s literally gone against everything he said he’d never do. So she’s not too happy about it.
“It hurts that she has been let down and betrayed by someone she was once very close with and trusted.”
Talking about the secret meet-up with Kelly in his book, Danny wrote, “I felt like it was fair game… I felt like what was mine wasn’t mine any more. I was friends with Thom. It was definitely a difficult scenario.”
Also in his book, Danny claims Kelly slapped him during a getaway to Las Vegas. The altercation came after Kelly overheard a lap dancer in the toilet say Danny had flirted with her and told her he was breaking up with Kelly and would be back in Vegas the following week.
“Kelly came out [of the toilet] and slapped me around the face,” he wrote, adding that she had to be restrained by several bouncers
and compared it to “some massive crazy reality show”.
Our source says Kelly is humiliated that personal details about their time together have come to light and has branded Danny a “hypocrite” for spilling the beans after once vowing he never would.
“She’s really embarrassed. It’s over 10 years ago. She’s not with Thom any more, but it doesn’t paint her in a good light at all,” says the source. “It’s a very one-sided, narrow-minded story.”
Kelly, who was briefly engaged to former Gladiator and Celebrity Big Brother star David “Tornado” McIntosh in 2014, has been in a relationship with aspiring actor Jeremy, 38, since 2015. They married in July 2022.
On the day Danny’s claims emerged, the Heart DJ posted a string of pictures of herself and Jeremy looking loved-up in Italy.
“Last Autumn, my husband and I filmed a pilot on his family farm in Italy during the olive harvest and captured the absolute beauty of where he is from and the beautiful family I am now married into,” she wrote on Instagram, thanking the film production company for “making this dream a reality and capturing so many wonderful moments on film”.
She added, “Arpino is where we were married and definitely a place we will be spending more time in the future and I’m looking forward to learning more about the business of olive oil farming.”
Our source said it was a tactical move for Kelly to show her down-to-earth nature and prove to the production company she’s moved on from her drama-fuelled days with Danny.
“She is wholesome through and through,” says our source. “Danny’s claims are one-sided and hurtful.”
Kelly dated Danny – who married Alex Reid’s ex Victoria Rose two years ago – between 2008 and 2010. They reunited briefly in 2013 before Kelly ended the romance for good after finding a string of X-rated messages from other women on his phone.
In his book, Danny, who last week admitted he needed women “like an alcoholic needs booze”, also accused Kelly of running “hot and cold”, adding that she didn’t do “deep and meaningfuls”.
He wrote, “Me and Kelly were in a position where she kept trying to break up with me, and I felt like she was pushing and pulling away from me all the time.”
Sounds like these two are definitely better off apart.
