A woman who claims she had a year-long affair with Vanessa Feltz's ex fiancé, then told the presenter about it by email, has broken her silence. In an interview with a national newspaper the woman explained why she revealed her relationship with Ben Ofoedu.
Feltz, 60, had been in a relationship with the Phats &Small dancer, 50, for 16 years but confirmed earlier this month that the couple had separated after she discovered his cheating on Christmas Day.

The 59-year-old, who asked not to be named, described the dumped boyfriend as "an octopus who has no respect for women". She said she was speaking out because he had "peddled lies" about their fling.
