Single mother Chantelle Houghton has confessed her relationship with cross-dressing fiancé Alex Reid came to a dramatic halt because of another man.

The 'other' man the model refers to is so far unknown, but it comes amid claims Reid allegedly tried to kiss his former agent, Richard Curson, 37, and sent him a string of supposedly explicit text messages.

She also admitted that the cage fighter's love of dressing up as his alter-ego Roxanne was another driving force behind her decision to go it alone.

Final straw: Alex's cross-dressing was another reason why Chantelle split with him

Upset: Chantelle looked uncomfortable throughout the interview on the Irish chat show

In the past Chantelle, 29, has spoken publicly about the arguments she and Alex, 37, had over flirty texts she had found on his phone to Curson.

Reid even owned up to the lewd nature of the messages: 'We did argue about Richard. I've made naughty jokes of an adult nature, which were private.'

'It has been purposefully misconstrued.'

There is no suggestion from Chantelle that the other man she refers to is Curson.
Chantelle said: 'I didn't break up with Alex lightly.'

'Ultimately a man ended our relationship and that's all I'm prepared to say on the matter.'

Discovering that Alex's cross-dressing was not just a publicity stunt was also very hard for Chantelle.

She told The Saturday Night show that she 'would not have been in a relationship if she knew that.'

The cage fighter's love for dressing up in outlandish women's clothing has been an activity carried out by Alex since the days prior to his relationship with Katie Price.

Now since the latest split from the father of her first child - four-month old Dolly - Chantelle has been noticeably suffering.

Joke: Chantelle found out Alex's cross-dressing was not just a bit of fun whilst she was pregnant

Being a single mother was not at all what the reality star - who found fame as the only non-celebrity on Celebrity Big Brother in 2006 - expected to become when she and Alex first announced their pregnancy,

Speaking on the show she said: 'I never appreciated what it was like to be a single mum before, and I'm in a very fortunate situation that I don't have money worries.'

'But it's hard going through a break-up and being mum as well - it's really tough.'

MailOnline contacted Reid for a comment but his publicist said he was unwilling to give a response.

She added: 'Hopefully at the right point he will address the comments Chantelle has made.'

She's struggling to come to terms with being a single parent to daughter Dolly after splitting from fiancé Alex Reid.

And now Chantelle Houghton has revealed that prior to their break-up she found telling text messages on the cage fighter's phone, which left her shocked and disgusted.

In an interview with OK! magazine she said: 'One night I looked at Alex’s phone, feeling like he and one of this friends were plotting something against me, and I found a text from Alex to this man talking about me. Alex asked him: "Is it time to bon voyage her?" Bon voyage me?! I couldn’t believe what I was reading. Dolly was ten weeks old. I’m the mother of his child and had no idea he was plotting this.'

Feeling the strain: Chantelle Houghton was seen looking exhausted and emotional as she ordered a takeaway from a Chinese

After reading the betrayal on screen Chantelle has no desire to stay friends with any of Alex's pals.

She said: 'I wouldn’t want to socialise with Alex’s friends because in my opinion they might be very underhand, some of whom I believe have gone to the press and sold stories.

'I got to the point where he kept humiliating me – you’re not supporting me, why should I support you? Why should I keep protecting you when you don’t actually seem to care?'

And it seems the strain of her situation is a burden too big to bear for Chantelle Houghton who looked close to breaking point last night.

Exhausted: The reality star, 29, was seen sporting large bags under her eyes and had her hair pulled up into a scruffy bun

The one thing that makes her smile: The single mother put on a brave face as she entertained her daughter Dolly

The 29-year-old former reality star was seen fluctuating between sobbing and attempting to put on a brave face for her daughter as she waited for a Chinese takeaway.

Chantelle appeared absolutely exhausted and failed to hide the deep dark bags under her eyes.

Her blonde hair was pulled up in to a scruffy bun which added to her dishevelled appearance.

The mother-of-one was extremely emotional throughout the meal and she was seen breaking into tears as she chatted with friends.

Trying to get on with things: Chantelle is trying to move on with her life after splitting from Alex Reid

While she let some of her heartache out to her close pals, Chantelle managed to raise a smile to entertain her daughter.

Dolly, who was born in July, appears to be the only thing helping Chantelle through her split from Ried which has resulted in bitter blows being handed out from both sides.

In a recent interview with Ok! magazine the former glamour model revealed that she will not be keeping in contact with her former partner's friends.

Chantelle recently accused Alex of 'bringing her down' she claims that she was shocked when he asked to have a DNA test to prove their three-and-a-half month year old daughter Dolly is his.

In her new! magazine column she wrote: 'I feel like Alex is trying to bring me down at the moment. He's trying to make me out to be something I'm not.

'He said last week he's prepared to have a DNA test to prove Dolly is his, but no one had ever heard any 'rumours' saying she wasn't.'

Despite their differences, she is still desperate to ensure he spends quality time with Dolly.

She added: 'Despite what's going on between us, I will never stop Dolly from seeing her dad...We're trying to arrange set times for him to visit Dolly twice a week.'

Alex and Chantelle began dating in May last year and became engaged last October.

The former Big Brother star, who divorced from Ordinary Boys singer Preston in 2007 announced she was pregnant with Reid's baby in November 2011.

•Chantelle 'doesn't really care' about her flabby stomach and size 14 figure
•In his only interview since his arrest, Alex claims Chantelle was being 'irrational' by calling the police
•Cagefighter added Chantelle tried to cuddle up to him night after his arrest

The end of a relationship is always difficult to cope with.

But Chantelle Houghton's split from Alex Reid was made all the more tough by the fact that the pair are parents to three-month-old daughter Dolly together.

And Chantelle showed the strain of the split as she was photographed out with her mother and baby daughter near her home in Essex on Monday.


Showing the strain: Chantelle Houghton appeared to be exhausted as she was pictured out near her Essex home on Monday

Struggling to cope: Chantelle hung her head in her hands, and certainly appeared to be finding things difficult following her split from Alex Reid

The 29-year-old former reality star looked exhausted and hung her head in her hands as she attempted to put on a brave face for the sake of little Dolly.

But Chantelle admitted in her new! magazine column that in reality she is struggling to cope, and has lost the will to care about her figure as she has been living off fast food meals.

She said: 'People have said I'm looking slim but I don't know why because I'm living on takeaways. I love Nando's, Indian, Chinese food and pizza - I just don't have time to make dinners from scratch.

'I was a size 10 before I got pregnant and now I'm a 14. My belly's really flabby but I really don't care right now.'

Keeping her head down: Chantelle dumped Alex on Twitter earlier this month after he was arrested following his kicking down of the door at the property the pair own together in Brentwood

Chantelle's admission came as she was pictured picking up lunch from a nearby McDonald's drive-through.

The former Celebrity Big Brother star announced on Twitter earlier this month that she had ended her relationship with cagefighter Alex, after she was forced to call the police on him when he allegedly kicked down the door to their house in the early hours of the morning.

Alex was later released without charge.

However, in a new interview with Now magazine, Alex has put his side of the story across, insisting that he was left 'flabbergasted' by Chantelle's decision to call the police.

Alex told the publication that it was his decision to go and see his father, who was beaten up two weeks ago, which first sparked the argument between himself and Chantelle.


Tired: Chantelle was spotted shopping for toiletries with her mother and daughter near her home

'Living on fast food': Chantelle was spotted picking up a quick fast food lunch from McDonald's after writing in her magazine column that she has been surviving solely on takeaways over the past few weeks

He added that Chantelle texted him the next day to tell him not to come home after attempting to persuade him not to leave to see his father.

Alex said: 'I texted Chantelle two hours beforehand to tell her I was coming home. I rang the doorbell and knocked for five minutes. I called her, she didn't answer. So I sent her a text message saying, "I will knock the door down".'

Alex added that he was desperate to get into the house because he knew the pair's daughter Dolly was ill and had a doctor's appointment the following day.

BUt when Chantelle still failed to let him into the property, Alex said: 'Out of sheer frustration I booted the door. It just came off.'

Supportive family: Chantelle was given a hand by her mother as the group headed out in Essex

When Alex made his way into the house, it was then that Chantelle opted to call the police.

Alex continued: 'I got a knock on my door. Chantelle was upstairs with Dolly and I purposely stayed downstairs. All of a sudden there were two policemen standing there. Then six more turned up and told me they were going to arrest me.'

He told the magazine that Chantelle then wanted to take back her decision, adding: 'Chantelle was crying and telling them not to arrest me. She's irrational. But it was too late.

'I was in shock and really upset. I just felt so betrayed by her - I didn't do anything wrong, it's totally crazy.'

After the arrest, Alex said Chantelle wanted to get back to normality - and even attempted to cuddle up to him when he returned to their house the night after spending the evening in jail.

Happier times: The pair were engaged to marry before their sudden split

He said: 'We slept in the same bed. She wanted to hug me, but I wouldn't let her. The next night I melted a little bit and let her.'

And despite the pair's differences, Alex insists he still wants to make it work with Chantelle.

In a direct message to his former fiancée, Alex said: 'I love you, I love Dolly. I want to sort this out. But it takes two, I can't do it by myself. You have to take equal responsibility.

'We need help. You can't keep blaming me for everything. Please wake up and get real.'

Following Alex's allegations about the series of events, a spokesperson for Chantelle told Now magazine that the sportsman is 'more interested in selling his story than taking responsibility for his own actions and his daughter.'

•Neighbours called incident 'frightening' after being woken by a 'screaming' Alex 'banging on the door'
•Cage fighter, 37, spent the night in custody after being arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage
•Alex said he 'assisted police with their inquiries' in statement online
•Police taking 'no further action' on the matter

By Louise Saunders


Neighbours have told how they were woken in the middle of the night by Alex Reid attempting to force his way in to the Essex home he shares with Chantelle Houghton.

And the stress of the last few days was clear to see on the 29-year-old reality star's face as she left her house for the first time since the dramatic incident earlier today (Thursday).

There was no doubt the usually bubbly blonde looked a far cry from her normal self, with her downcast expression proving just how painful the experience has been for Chantelle.


Pained: Chantelle Houghton looked downcast as she left her home in Brentwood, Essex, with daughter Dolly in tow earlier today (Thursday)

Moving on: Alex Reid kept his head down as he stepped out for the first time since his arrest earlier today

But ever the doting mother, the former Celebrity Big Brother star lavished attention on her two-month-old daughter Dolly as she prepared to drive off in her Range Rover.

Dressed in a pair of leather panel leggings with a black mesh long-sleeve top and simple flat sandals, the star was evidently determined not to let the events of the last few days get in the way of her mothering duties.

With little Dolly in tow, Chantelle made her way to a local branch of Mothercare, where she picked up a birthday present ahead of taking her little one to a party later in the afternoon.


Stressed: The worry of the past few days was evident on Chantelle's face as she stepped out for the first time since Alex Reid's arrest

Doting: Chantelle put on a brave face as she took little Dolly to a birthday party this afternoon

And despite putting on a brave face for the sake of her daughter, it was abundantly clear the main worry on Chantelle's mind was the state of her relationship.

Alex also stepped out for the first time this afternoon, and made sure to keep his head down as he wandered through the streets on his mobile phone while attempting to shield his face with a baseball cap.

The 37-year-old cage fighter was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage at the couple's home in the early hours of yesterday morning (Wednesday) after local residents awoke to a 'screaming' commotion between the pair.

One neighbour told the Daily Star: 'I could hear a man shouting and when I looked out I saw Alex Reid.

Released without charge: Police have decided to take no further action after being called to the Essex home Alex Reid shares with Chantelle Houghton in the early hours of yesterday morning

'He was screaming, "Let me in, f***ing let me in.’ Other people living in the street must have woken up because I saw a few lights go on".'

Meanwhile, another neighbour near the couple's home in Brentwood, Essex, admitted to finding the incident 'quite frightening'.

She added: 'I’m used to them making noise late at night but I only usually hear cars coming back and forth and sometimes a bit of loud talking.

'This time I heard banging and lots of shouting. I live on my own so it was quite frightening.'

No comment: Alex Reid posted a statement about the incident on his official website

Alex has since been released by Essex Police without charge.

In a statement on his official website, he said: 'In the early hours of this morning Alex was arrested at the address he shares with his partner, Chantelle Houghton after she called police following a disturbance.

'The reasons for Alex’s arrest have been widely publicised and in some cases inaccurate and based on conjecture.

'Alex considers this a private matter and therefore is not prepared to comment on it save to say that he assisted police with their inquiries and following that, the police have taken no further action.'

Questions: Police were spotted leaving Alex and Chantelle's Essex home yesterday afternoon (Wednesday)

Police arrested the reality star at 1.30am yesterday morning 'on suspicion of criminal damage and using violence to secure entry'.

A spokesperson for Essex Police told MailOnline: 'Police were contacted just before 1.30am this morning with reports of a disturbance at a property in Spital Lane, Brentwood.

'A 37-year old man from Brentwood was arrested on suspicion of criminal damage and using violence to secure entry, and is currently in police custody.'

In recent weeks, the couple have made no secret of the fact their relationship has been under strain following the birth of their 11-week-old daughter, Dolly, in June.

Chantelle told the new issue of OK! magazine: 'Things have been really strained. There's never a day without drama.'

Testing times: Chantelle and Alex have made no secret of the fact that their 16-month relationship is somewhat turbulent at present

In an interview with New! magazine this week, Alex admitted he had made mistakes in his relationship with Chantelle:

He said: 'I’m doing everything in my power to make it work. I’ve made bad mistakes and choices.'

The couple have been dating for 16 months, and have run into several problems throughout the course of their relationship.

Chantelle was furious when she discovered Alex had been exchanging private, but innocent, Twitter messages with model Amy Willerton - former protogee of his ex-wife Katie Price.

The former Paris Hilton lookalike also admitted she has also been upset by Alex being groped by a drag queen as he performed in a gay club.

A few weeks before baby Dolly was born, Alex briefly moved out of the couple's Essex home, and again left the property for three days last month.

Chantelle Houghton recently admitted in her magazine column that things were 'strained' between herself and her fiancé Alex Reid.

And now the mother-of-one has revealed this week in new! that the cagefighter temporarily moved out of their home last week.

Although she didn't go into much detail as to why Alex left it had been reported that the couple, who welcomed baby girl Polly into the world two months ago, had been arguing over Reid's sexual preferences.

In her column Chantelle wrote: 'I can confirm that Alex did leave our house last week.

'He stayed at his mum's and didn't come back for a week. Now he's back but that's all I want to say about it at the moment.'

She also spoke about her Twitter spat with Alex's former business partner Richard Curson who claimed that Alex tried to kiss him.

She said: 'I had a Twitter war with Alex's former business partner, Richard Curson, last week. I saw that he sold a story about me to another magazine once again.

'It's a shame he won't pick up the phone to me if he feels I need to know the truth. I'm all ears!'

How they were: Chantelle recently admitted that her relationship with Alex was 'strained' and there have been reports that the couple have been arguing over the cagefigther's sexual preferences

Following Curson's story, on August 9 Chantelle took to her Twitter page to confront him.

She tweeted: '@RichardCurson so tell me what else I should know?'

To which he replied: '@chantellehought I have been hurt Chantelle very deeply by someone I thought was my friend, he hurts everyone including you :-('

Last week, the 28-year-old revealed in her column that her relationship with Alex had become 'strained' amidst various reports and rumours.

She wrote: 'Things between us have been strained lately, and there has been a lot of stuff in the press and that’s made things hard.'

Chantelle's comments came as it was reported she had been telling friends that she's not sure whether her relationship with Alex will last.

A source told Now magazine: 'Chantelle has been telling friends, "I'll walk out if things don't get better. I want it to work for Dolly's sake, but I won't stay if I'm this miserable.

'"I might have rushed into it, I don't want to marry if I'll be unhappy. I'd rather be a single mum".'


Today Chantelle hit out at her ex-boyfriend Rav Wilding on Twitter after she accused him of retweeting an offensive comment about her.

She wrote: 'At a time when twitter bullying is at an all time high it's a shame that rav being an expoliceman and someone ppl look up to should retweet.'

Shortly after she then uploaded another post that read: 'Retweetin such tweets. I don't mind what he calls me but he shouldn't do it publicly cos young children will see it and think its acceptable.'

The so called tweet that the blonde referred to doesn't appear to on Wilding's account anymore, although it's not clear if he did indeed retweet anything.

Just the two of us: Alex Reid and Chantelle Houghton enjoy a Saturday night out in Essex without their baby daughter

It's take a while for new mothers to leave their baby at home for the first time, but last night Chantelle Houghton was confident in doing so.

The 28-year-old enjoyed a night off as she helped her fiancé Alex Reid celebrate his 36th birthday.

The happy couple were spotted leaving Essex restaurant Smith's hand-in-hand and appeared to be enjoying the quality time together.

It was the first time that Chantelle has been seen on a night out since she gave birth to her daughter on June 17.

The former Celebrity Big Brother star has already snapped back into good shape and had made an effort for their night out.

The blonde star showed off her slender figure in a pair of black leggings which she teamed with a white peplum top and some bright purple heels.

Alex also seemed to have made an effort wearing a pair of pale pink chinos, a navy blue polo top and boat shoes.

Although it may be their first night out together since becoming parents last month, Alex and Chantelle have been spotted out a few times this week without their bundle of joy.

Their daughter - who has yet been named - has been noticeably absent, presumably being cared for by grandparents at the couple's home in Essex.

Alex and Chantelle are clearly enjoying being parents and seemed to be more loved up than ever as they shared a kiss in the back of their waiting taxi.

They've had a rocky few weeks, with Chantelle Houghton even moving - albeit briefly - out of their Essex home.

So in a bid to empathise with his heavily-pregnant fiancée, Alex Reid became a 'pregnant man' for the day in a new magazine photoshoot.

In a sequence of quirky photos, the 36-year-old is seen struggling as he does the washing-up, mopping the floor and carrying the groceries - echoing images of the glamour model doing the latter a few weeks ago.

Putting himself in Chantelle's shoes: Cagefighter Alex Reid shows off his fake 'baby bump' in a new photoshoot for Now magazine

In the accompanying interview, Alex admits he's baffled by the problems they have been having, but admit his bride-to-be's pregnancy hormones may be a factor.

Two weeks ago, Chantelle briefly left their house after an argument, but returned a few days later.

Explaining the argument, Alex tells the new issue of Now magazine: 'We have fights.

Who doesn’t? But all her stuff is still at my place, er, I mean our place. I still love her and can’t wait to marry her and bring up our family together.'

Heavy load: 'Pregnant' Alex struggles with the shopping bags... just as his fiancée was pictured doing so a few weeks ago

When asked what triggered the row, he replied: 'I wish I knew. There are only two things I do wrong at the moment: everything I say and everything I do....

'I breathe wrongly and I get my throat jumped down.'

Alex believes a majority of their problems stem from her insecurity, after she reacted with fury to him discussing his ex-wife Katie Price in an interview and exchanging private, but innocent messages with her former protégée Amy Willerton on Twitter.

Dubbing Chantelle's reaction over the 'Willerton situation... ridiculous', he also described her response to his Katie interview questions as 'upsetting'.

This bump keeps getting in the way! 'Pregnant' Alex does the washing-up

Throughout her pregnancy, Chantelle admitted she has been paranoid about herself and the baby.

She was briefly hospitalised in March when doctors found out she had an irregular heartbeat - Supraventricular Tachycardia, which is a relatively common condition during pregnancy.

At the time, she said: 'I worry that something will happen to me, that the baby will be born and I won't be here.

'That doctors said that when you're in labour your heart goes up even more and so I'm terrified of the whole thing.

'I also worry that I will go into labour early and then who knows what will happen.'

In an interview earlier this month, she admitted she was scared of being in their house alone while Alex was off on tour.

She told OK! magazine: 'I’m terrified in the house on my own. I’m so scared.

'Late at night I lie awake scared. I stay in the little room right at the back of the house where no one can get me and in can climb into the cupboard and hide.'

Chantelle, who started dating Alex in April last year, is due to give birth in late June.

Enough is enough: Chantelle and Alex pictured together two weeks ago, the one-time reality star is thought to have walked out on her fiance just weeks before birth

She has been pictured looking drained in the past few weeks - and more importantly alone.

And it seems the strain has finally got to Chantelle Houghton as the 28-year-old has reportedly walked out on fiancé Alex Reid.

At eight-months pregnant, the one-time reality star has reportedly left her and Reid's £600,000 home and moved into her two-bedroom flat she still owns in Essex.

Bedraggled: Chantelle Houghton is pictured looking tired and alone last week

Chantelle is said to have told friends: 'Enough is enough', the Sunday People reported.

And friends added the mother-to-be has even been sleeping on the floor of her new property as it doesn't have a bed or any other furniture.

Mutual pals of the pair told the paper: 'She is absolutely devastated. She is in a complete state. She has moved back into her flat where she feels safe. She won't tell any of us what Alex has done.'

The friend added: 'Whatever happened must be catastrophic because she's never have fled her home without good reason.

Natural woman: Chantelle is reported to have walked out on her fiance just weeks before she is due to give birth


Chantelle is thought to have walked out on Reid on Wednesday and updated her Twitter with the cryptic message: Karma is a b***h and I'm so glad it is cos people only find out how much of a b***h it is when its too late and they've hurt u.'

Fiancé Alex Reid, who has just returned from touring with WildBoyz, last tweeted that the pair had enjoyed a cosy night out to his thousands of followers, and the cage-fighter has not been seen since Wednesday, according to reports.

Chantelle was pictured carrying heavy shopping last week shortly after being forced to deny reports that Alex had broken off their engagement.

Addressing the rumours in her magazine column, she said: ''People have been asking all week if my engagement to Alex is still on, after newspapers reported that he’d called it all off last week.'

'Waking up to the reports was the weirdest feeling ever. It was like, “Oh right, I’m not getting married now."'

However the blonde insists that nothing has changed, as she continued: 'The wedding is not off and I don’t know which “friend” or associate is saying these things. It’s a bit of a bitch.'

'It’s like, “Give me a break, I’m almost eight months pregnant.'

'To be honest, the last thing on my mind right now is a wedding and I haven’t made any plans.'

'When Alex asked me to marry him, we said it wouldn’t be for at least a year.Then I found out I was pregnant and having this baby is more important than getting married right now.'

The stress of pregnancy twinned with the many arguments the couple have been having, have clearly made a glitzy showbiz wedding the least of Chantelle's priorities.

Flying solo: Chantelle has been pictured out and about solo a lot recently

The former glamour model told OK! magazine: 'The wedding won't be happening next year or maybe even the year after that.

'We have much more important things to deal with.'

She admitted to the magazine that things are far from perfect between her and the cagefighter and she has been suffering paranoia as a result.

Tags: Alex Reid, Chantelle Houghton

By Holly Thomas


With a baby on the way and an engagement on the rocks, most couples would put all other commitments aside to work through their problems together.

Sadly for Chantelle Houghton, she is having to carry the weight of impending motherhood- and her weekly shopping- alone.

The 28-year-old was seen struggling with her bags outside her Essex home today, looking in dire need of some assistance from her errant fiancé Alex Reid.

Struggling on: A heavily pregnant Chantelle Houghton was pictured battling with her weekly shopping outside her Essex home today as errant fiancé Alex Reid remained nowhere to be seen

Alex, 36, has been away with the touring production WildBoyz. With Chantelle due to give birth within six weeks, the timing is hardly ideal.

Chantelle addressed the rumours that her wedding with Alex is off in her last column for New! magazine.

'People have been asking all week if my engagement to Alex is still on, after newspapers reported that he’d called it all off last week,' she wrote.

Visible strain: Chantelle has spoken out against the rumours that her engagement is on the rocks, but there's no doubt recent events have taken their toll

'Waking up to the reports was the weirdest feeling ever. It was like, “Oh right, I’m not getting married now."'

However the blonde insists that nothing has changed, as she continued: 'The wedding is not off and I don’t know which “friend” or associate is saying these things. It’s a bit of a bitch.'

'It’s like, “Give me a break, I’m almost eight months pregnant.'

Calling for a catch-up? Perhaps Chantelle was having a quick word with Alex, who is currently touring the UK with Wildboyz

'To be honest, the last thing on my mind right now is a wedding and I haven’t made any plans.'

'When Alex asked me to marry him, we said it wouldn’t be for at least a year.Then I found out I was pregnant and having this baby is more important than getting married right now.'

The stress of pregnancy twinned with the many arguments the couple have been having, have clearly made a glitzy showbiz wedding the least of Chantelle's priorities.

The former glamour model told OK! magazine: 'The wedding won't be happening next year or maybe even the year after that.

'We have much more important things to deal with.'

She admitted to the magazine that things are far from perfect between her and the cagefighter and she has been suffering paranoia as a result.

Fresh concern: Chantelle has expressed worries over the fact that close 'friends' appear to be leaking details of her arguments with Alex to the press

The pair often read stories about their arguments and neither one of them knows how the accounts are getting out.

She said: 'I'm finding it hard and me and Alex are having arguments because I don't want to be coming home and talking about how our private business is getting in the tabloids and who has said what to who.'

With Alex, 36, away with the touring production WildBoyz, she has been left alone at home in Essex and feels like a nervous wreck.

She said: 'I stay in the little room right at the back of the house where no one can get me and I climb in the cupboard and hide.'

The couple have reportedly spent little time together recently, despite having just moved into a new house together.

Alex and Chantelle didn't even see each other on the one day that Alex had off from his touring strip show on 30 April.
