Laura Simpson hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons in 2017, when she was involved in a scandal with football star Wayne Rooney.
The office worker and mum-of-one was in the car with the former Manchester United and England football ace, when he was pulled over by police following a boozy night out in Cheshire.
Wayne’s wife Coleen Rooney was heavily pregnant with the couple’s fourth child at the time, and the sportsman pleaded guilty to drink driving following his arrest.
The dad-of-four was banned driving for two years and ordered to carry out 100 hours of unpaid community work.
The footballer was driving Laura’s VW Beetle home after they met in a club in Alderley Edge, but she insisted they only kissed and hugged, and didn’t have sex.
Laura was partying at the Bubble Room cocktail bar with her friends when she bumped into Wayne and his pals, and she said he was instantly smitten with her.
“I got to the bar around 10pm. He introduced himself with his mate and we sat down and had a talk and had a laugh. He kept admiring my boobs in my clingy top and asking what size they were,” she told The Sun.
She said the married father was “being flirty”, but she as adamant she wasn’t star-struck, and “just liked talking to him”.
“Yes he's a bit of a lad, and I was drunk but I was doing nothing wrong. I’m not a marriage wrecker,” she fired.
Furious Coleen reportedly rang Laura after hearing news of Wayne’s arrest, and demanded to know the details of their night of passion.
She said the WAG was fuming after being told the duo had left the Symposium Bar, where they’d visited to get away from “prying eyes”, in a taxi to get to Laura’s VW Beetle, which Wayne was caught driving while drunk.
Laura capitalised on her five minutes of fame, and appeared on TV shows and gave interviews detailing her side of the story.
But viewers of This Morning were left squirming after hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield interrogated Laura over their brief fling.
“And if you were (Coleen), knowing exactly, as you're really the only person and him, who knows what went on - would you forgive and forget?” Holly asked.
“I don't think he deserves, well, it's not my opinion, but I wouldn't do that to my partner,” Laura replied, as she insisted she had done “nothing wrong”.
The estate agent is now a member of a dating website, SeekingArrangement.com, that matches younger women with older men, and enjoyed a brief fling with Celebrity Big Brother star Jeremy McConnell.
