Martin Compston has revealed he was accused of sending illicit texts to a woman after an imposter pretended to be him. The Line of Duty star thought he was going to be attacked when he was confronted by an angry boyfriend in a shopping centre.
The man’s girlfriend was also present and told Compston her partner had read naughty messages between the pair. The actor was bemused because he had never met the woman before and it turned out someone posing as him had been sending texts to her.
He said: “I was in Braehead shopping centre with my mates and this lassie came up to me with this hardy boy behind her. She went, ‘He knows.’ I was like, ‘Excuse me?’ She said, ‘He’s been through my phone, he found our texts.’
