Just when we thought this was all dying down - Jane and Derrick Pountney have now released a statement about Katie Price’s claims that Jane had an affair with Katie's husband, Kieran Hayler.
Previously, Derrick branded the whole scandal as “a storm in a tea cup”, but now – in a joint statement – the Pountneys admit that Katie’s account of events is true.
The statement – posted here in full – has just appeared on Mail Online.
“Statement on behalf of Jane and Derrick Pountney
“We make this statement to clear up some recent misreporting and to ask that the press now respect our privacy. We are not public figures and do not seek publicity. Having journalists and photographers camped outside our house is causing immense strain and is harassment.
“Please do not not knock on the door, please do not photograph us. We would ask, politely, that having made this statement we are left alone.
“This is the only statement we have or will make on this subject. Please note Jane does not have a Twitter account and has no intention of setting one up.
“It is true that Jane and Kieran Hayler had an affair. This is something that Jane deeply regrets and we will not provide any more details about it.
“It is true that Kate found out about this affair on Wednesday 7 May 2014.
“Current reports regarding this being "a storm in a teacup" and the affair being a "drunken kiss" do not accurately reflect the situation. Those remarks should not be used to undermine Kate's account which we accept is accurate.
“We are going to spend some time together deciding what our future holds and would reiterate that we would appreciate now being left alone to do that.”
