After yesterday’s revelations, the star has admitted sending further messages behind his wife Tess Daly’s back
Yesterday we were shocked with revelations of Vernon Kay courting a Page 3 model, and today he has admitted sending texts to at least five others.
The star first confirmed exchanging racy messages with busty model Rhian Sugdan over social Networking site Twitter.
SEE TESS AND VERNON DURING HAPPIER TIMES
The saucy exchange, which was conducted behind his wife Tess Daly's back, has blighted his clean-cut, family man image.
And today reports have emerged that Vernon sent further racy messages to up to ‘four or five' friends and colleagues, and also used Skype for suggestive chats with the women.
‘I've only done this with four or five girls and I've known them all well - they've been friends or work colleagues,' he told the Sun. ‘I thought it was harmless banter and just larking around.'
But the star has now admitted his behavior was unacceptable. ‘I'm so sorry. I've been an idiot and I've let my family down,' he said.
‘I know a single guy can get away with things like that but I'm married and I understand this is off limits.'
The sorry star is said to be holed up at home talking things over with his furious wife Tess.
‘Tess is extremely upset about this and we're working through it,' he said.
But bizarrely Vernon has revealed his relief at being outed. ‘In some ways I'm glad this story has come out. It feels like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders,' he said.
‘I knew it was getting silly. I'm never going to do it again and hopefully I can clear the slate clean and start again,'
Now the Family Fortunes star is keen to make things up to his wife.
‘I've got the most beautiful family and I'm embarrassed I've put them through this,' he said.
‘I'll do whatever it takes to resolve the situation. I'm so sorry.'
