Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom Still Together?

Gossip columns have been reporting that Australian model Miranda Kerr has split with her movie star boyfriend Orlando Bloom, however, the rumors are not true according to her family.

A story on the website of U.S. tabloid magazine In Touch states an ‘insider’ as saying the relationship is over and “that she has rebounded into the arms of her former flame, oil heir Brandon Davis.”

The article also claims that Kerr and Davis, “were spotted canoodling at two clubs in NYC” and were “full on making out. They didn’t seem to care who saw.”

A rep for the Victoria’s Secret model denies the split along with her brother Matthew, who was there when Kerr saw Davis at the club.

“We were just out with a few other friends from Australia having a good time and we bumped into Brandon while we were at 10ak,” Matthew explained. They have been friends for a while and we just said hi, chatted for a bit and that was it.”

He adds, “There definitely wasn’t any kissing - nothing could be further from the truth.”

Kerr’s mother has even made a comment on the rumors about her daughter telling News.com.au, “I realise there is an interest in people who are in the spotlight, but I just can’t believe how far from the truth it gets.

“Miranda and Orlando have never been closer and are happier right now more so than ever.”

Tania Zaetta Troop Sex Slur

THE Defence Department has issued an unreserved apology to entertainer Tania Zaetta after a leaked memo accused her of having sex with troops in Afghanistan.

In a statement tonight, Brigadier Andrew Nikolic responded to reports that Ms Zaetta had sex with soldiers during a trip to Afghanistan to entertain troops.

A leaked Defence memo reported in News Limited publications today said fellow entertainer Angry Anderson had made a complaint about Ms Zaetta's behaviour.

Brigadier Nikolic said: “We are unaware how that unauthorised disclosure occurred, but we apologise unreservedly to those named. We have called on News Limited to assist our enquiries by returning any material they have obtained."

“An initial document, prepared internally to brief the Minister, did contain the names but was withdrawn by Defence within minutes because of privacy concerns. Importantly, the final version of the document did not include names,” he said.

Brih Nikolic said Defence was investigating a number of matters, "including the allegation of inappropriate behaviour, privacy concerns, and the unauthorised disclosure".

“We hope to complete these inquiries quickly and have taken steps to formally apologise to the people whose names were published by the media,” Brigadier Nikolic said.

Earlier today, an entertainer who toured Afghanistan with Ms Zaetta says the star alleged to have had sex with Diggers during her visit was too busy even for a 'quickie'.

"I've heard of quickies mate, but you'd have to be really quick - we didn't have time to do anything,'' John Clinton, from the country rock band The Wolverines, told Macquarie Radio.

The sex-with-troops claim - strenuously denied by Zaetta - has left the Defence Department red-faced after it named her in an official document, and the furore has even reached Prime Minister Kevin Rudd.

He said: "I have seen those reports today and, as I understand it, these matters are under investigation within the defence department and I will leave it for that investigation to reach its own conclusions".

Mr Clinton explained that everyone on the tour "was together all the time and everyone was doing their job. We all travelled in the same Hercules, we had buses when we arrived".

"They did a roll call before we took off, we had a roll call when we got there. It's not as if you can go missing.''

The entertainers had also been warned they would be kicked off the tour if they were caught fraternising with the troops, said Clinton, whose band toured with Zaetta.

"One of the hard and fast rules that we got told, briefing after briefing, was that there was no fraternising, there was no alcohol, and if you break the rules you get taken straight off the camp and you're sent home,'' he said.

"I can't see where that sort of thing could have happened.''

In pictures: Tania Zaetta's rise to fame

A Defence document said the unsubstantiated allegation that Zaetta had sex with special forces troops at the Australian base in Tarin Kowt last month, while on a 17-day concert tour of the Middle East, was made by rocker Angry Anderson, who today denied making any complaint.

Clinton doubted Angry Anderson had made a complaint about Zaetta, saying he "was just such a gentleman'' while on tour.

Zaetta, 37, a radio host and Bollywood actress, was the co-host of 1990s television show Who Dares Wins, which is also the motto of the Australian SAS.

She strenuously denied the allegation.

"That is the absolute first I've heard of it," she told News Ltd.

"That is the most ridiculous story I've ever heard about my life - and I've heard plenty over the years in this industry.

"It takes the cake. I've just done this most amazing life-changing experience, been to the most unbelievable places and for this to be said, it's very hurtful."

Anderson, lead singer of rock band Rose Tattoo, said he had not made a complaint about Zaetta.

"I don't know where that came from. I don't get into personal or petty dislikes, particularly when it could hamper or have a detrimental effect on a tour," he told News Ltd.

"I don't know Tania very well. As far as I could tell she conducted herself in a very professional manner."

A Department of Defence spokesman confirmed that an investigation was under way and that statements would be taken from those who participated on the tour, who were briefed on the military's no-fraternisation policy 10 days before the tour.

In interviews given to publicise the tour, Zaetta told AAP: "I'm single at the moment, and there has been a lot of teasing that I am going into a very male dominated place where they haven't seen girls for a long time."

Opposition defence spokesman Nick Minchin queried how "these stories" reached the newspapers.

"It is deeply concerning that these unsubstantiated allegations have been publicly aired, especially as Ms Zaetta strenuously denies the rumours," he said in a statement.

Entertainers such as Zaetta and Anderson should be thanked for visiting our troops in the field, not subjected to tawdry innuendo, he said.

"How did these stories reach the newspapers?

"Mr Fitzgibbon must immediately investigate who in the Department of Defence or his office leaked this story.

"And then he must explain how that person has been dealt with and what will be done to stop such slurs being leaked in the future."

Miranda Kerr Brings BF Home to Oz

Orlando Bloom’s current leading lady, Australian model Miranda Kerr, has revealed that the pair have taken their relationship to the next level, with Bloom set to met Kerr’s parents this week.

New York-based Kerr has returned to Australia for a brief visit for a work engagement, with her ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ beau in tow, she told fashion journalist Jen Melocco.

"I'm really happy he is here with me. Because we have such a busy schedule, we really try and spend as much time as possible together," she said.

She believes that Bloom will be a hit with her dad, John, because “my dad's happy if I'm happy", she says; “My dad is the most easy-going, relaxed guy.”

Heath Ledger, Found Dead in NYC

NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan apartment, naked in bed with sleeping pills nearby, police said. The Australian-born actor was 28. It wasn't immediately clear if Ledger had committed suicide.

He had an appointment for a massage at a residence in the tony neighborhood of SoHo, NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said. A housekeeper who went to let him know the massage therapist had arrived found him dead at 3:26 p.m.

A large crowd of paparazzi and gawkers gathered outside the building on an upscale block. Ledger's body was still inside, and several police officers guarded the door.

The medical examiner's office planned an autopsy Wednesday, spokeswoman Ellen Borakove said.

While not a marquee movie star, Ledger was a respected, award-winning actor who chose his roles carefully rather than cashing in on his heartthrob looks. He was nominated for an Oscar for his performance as a gay cowboy in "Brokeback Mountain," where he met Michelle Williams, who played his wife in the film. The two had a daughter, Matilda, and lived together in Brooklyn until they split up last year.

Ledger most recently appeared in "I'm Not There," in which he played one of the many incarnations of Bob Dylan as did Cate Blanchett, whose performance in that film earned an Oscar nomination Tuesday for best supporting actress.

Ledger had finished filming his role as the Joker this year in "The Dark Knight," a sequel to 2005's "Batman Begins."

He's had starring roles in "A Knight's Tale" and "The Patriot," and played the suicidal son of Billy Bob Thornton in "Monster's Ball." He also played a heroin addict in the 2006 Australian film "Candy."

Before settling down with Williams, Ledger had relationships with actresses Heather Graham and Naomi Watts. He met Watts while working on "The Lords of Dogtown," a fictionalized version of a cult classic skateboarding documentary, in 2004.

Ledger was born in 1979 in Perth, in western Australia, to a mining engineer and a French teacher, and got his first acting role playing Peter Pan at age 10 at a local theater company. He began acting in independent films as a 16-year-old in Sydney and played a cyclist hoping to land a spot on an Olympic team in a 1996 television show, "Seat."

After several independent films, Ledger moved to Los Angeles at age 19 and co-starred opposite Julia Stiles in "10 Things I Hate About You," a teen comedy reworking of "The Taming of the Shrew."

Offers for other teen flicks soon came his way, but Ledger turned them down, preferring to remain idle than sign on for projects he didn't like.

"It wasn't a hard decision for me," Ledger told the Associated Press in 2001. "It was hard for everyone else around me to understand. Agents were like, 'You're crazy,' my parents were like, 'Come on, you have to eat.'"

His movie career caught on anyway, culminating with his Academy Award nomination opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in "Brokeback."

"Dark Knight" director Christopher Nolan said earlier this month that Ledger's performance as the Joker would be wildly different than Jack Nicholson's memorable turn in 1989's "Batman."

"It was a very great challenge for Heath," Nolan said. "He's extremely original, extremely frightening, tremendously edgy. A very young character, a very anarchic presence that taps into a lot of our basic fears and panic."

De Rossi and DeGeneres Almost Over?

If you’re a fan of powergay Ellen DeGeneres, we’ve got good news and bad news: The good news is that her recent emotional meltdowns may not be solely puppy-related; while the bad news is that she actually might have been crying because her much less powerful gay girlfriend is preparing to go the way of so many baby dogs before her and fly the coop.

According to multiple sources, [Ellen’s] really in pain because her three-year romance with aussie actress Portia de Rossi is all but over.

“Ellen would never have broken down like that on TV if things were right in her home life,” one source explains.

“Portia has been telling Ellen she’s very unhappy at home,” adds a second source.

When it comes down to it, she wants to be with someone younger and hotter. She wants out, but Ellen has been begging her to stay. Portia is really everything in this world to her.”

BB Krystal Goes Gaming

Former Australian Big Brother contestant Krystal Forscutt has taken her first step towards international fame by being chosen as a character in a popular video game.

Forscutt is one of two females who feature as a digital version of themselves in Need For Speed's new ProStreet computer game, to be released later this year, with a potential worldwide audience of 40 million gamers.

"It's my first sort of international appearance, I guess," Forscutt told The Sunday Telegraph.

"It will probably weird me out a bit to watch. It's like when I see myself on TV - I can't stand to watch it, but I'll definitely play the game."

Representatives from international gaming company EA approached Forscutt after spotting her in a bikini shoot in men's magazine Zoo Weekly. She was flown to EA's Vancouver headquarters where she was photographed and filmed for artists to create her character - a starting girl in the race series. It is not uncommon for celebrities to be in computer games but this is thought to be the first time an Australian has had a character in an EA game.

International names to have featured as characters in games include Hilary Duff, Christina Aguilera and Natasha Bedingfield. Forscutt, believed to be one of the most financially successful of Big Brother contestants, poses regularly for men's mags and appeared recently on Seven's It Takes Two.

"I wouldn't say that I live a life of complete luxury but financially I'm pretty stable,'' she said.

"People might think things have been given to me, but I've had to work hard to keep my face out in the media and not just sort of fade away.''

Forscutt, 20, has made no secret of undergoing breast enlargement but insists she's had no other surgery.

"I wouldn't be game enough to and I am completely happy with who I am," she said.

She says posing topless or nude is something she'd never do.

"I have no desire to do that," she said.

"I would just like to keep some dignity. I have got nothing against girls that choose to do that, it is just not me. I don't think I need to do that to get anywhere.

Richie Dumped In Oz

Nicole Richie's relationship with Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden appears to be on the rocks, with widespread reports today suggesting the pair split up after the MTV Australia Video Music Awards.

Music industry insiders say that "Joel was acting like a single man" at an MTV awards after-party, and the couple "openly argued" in front of the crowd.

"Word is spreading fast that Joel and Nicole broke up right after their trip to Australia,"

Reports claim the rocker dumped Nicole for being "too clingy" during their trip Down Under, which included stops in Byron Bay and the Gold Coast.

"(Joel and his brother Benji) were both behaving like they didn't have girlfriends for the majority of the night," an insider at The Metro's post-MTV awards party said.

"They were certainly being 'the men'. She was in tears at one stage, but no one really knows why."

Madden's former girlfriend Hilary Duff recently told a leading gossip magazine this week she was finding his relationship with Richie tough to handle.

"It's definitely been difficult to see him move on so quickly," Duff admitted.

I wonder if Hilary will take him back - if she does she's more gullible than I thought.

Holly Valance Is Taken

Australian actress Holly Valance is on a roll right now. It ain’t quite as tasty as a multi-grain roll with ham, cheese, bit of fresh lettuce, some canned tomato and pineapple to boot… but it’s a roll all the same.

The former “Neighbours” star cum “Prison Break” co-star cum big-screen film star (granted, “D.O.A” only did reasonable business at one theater in Uganda, and only then because tickets were free) seems to have no shortage of offers at the moment.

Word is, she’s accepted one of them – a role opposite Maggie Grace and Liam Neeson in the Luc Besson produced “Taken”.

The Pierre Morel directed pic tells of a ex-soldier (Liam Neeson) who discovers his daughter (Maggie Grace) has been kidnapped by slave masters (sorry, nothing about ‘sex’ slaves in the synopsis here) in Europe. No word if Valance is the one holding the whip... or taking a whip.

Valance also recently appeared in the comedy blunder “Pledge This!” opposite Paris Hilton, and was recently rumoured to be up for a part – probably just someone looking to gain pre-finance publicity for the film, in an effort to get it bankrolled, I’m guessing – in the Donald Bradman biopic, “The Bloody Ashes”.

Customs Raid Stallone's Hotel Room

Customs officials raided the hotel room of US movie star Sylvester Stallone on Monday day as members of his entourage were seen throwing items out of the window, it has been reported.

The Daily Telegraph Online website reports the Rocky star's private jet was also searched, delaying Stallone's departure from Australia by three hours on Monday night.


The actor and his party were stopped at Sydney airport by Australian Customs Service officers on his arrival on Friday night. They were delayed for about two hours after routine X-rays of their luggage revealed several prohibited items.

Customs would not confirm the nature of the items, but it is believed banned body building drugs could be among them.

The website reports the investigation was stepped up after a visit to Stallone's Sydney hotel room revealed further evidence relating to the investigation over the importation of illegal substances.

A senior Customs source told the Daily Telegraph the investigation was fast-tracked after occupants of Stallone's room at the Park Hyatt Hotel were seen throwing items out of the window.

Customs officials had visited the Hollywood star to issue him with a summons to answer charges on the prohibited substances, which would have required a court appearance by him or his legal representative at a later date, the website said.

A Customs spokesman said investigations were ongoing and they were aware that Stallone had left the country as planned on Monday evening.

When quizzed about the incident at the Sydney premiere of his latest film, Rocky Balboa, on Saturday night, the 60-year-old laughed it off.

"That was just a misunderstanding," Stallone said.

"Customs is doing a great job. I just didn't understand some of the rules here."

When asked on the red carpet what was in his luggage, he joked, "My wife".

Flying The Friendly Skies

BRIT heartthrob Ralph Fiennes might have forgotten his role as a global promoter of safe sex when he allegedly joined the mile-high club with a stewardess who's since been suspended from her job.

The blue-eyed star of "The English Patient" and "Schindler's List" was on a five-day, UNICEF tour of AIDS-ravaged India last month to raise awareness about STDs when he met Qantas flight attendant Lisa Robinson in the business-class section of the Darwin-to-Mumbai (Bombay) flight.

According to reports in Australian and British papers, Robinson, a 38-year-old former cop, said Fiennes began chatting her up and sat with her in the crew jump seat during rest breaks, even though that was against the rules. Then he made his move.

"While conversing with Mr. Fiennes during my break, I expressed a need to go to the toilet. I went to the nearby toilet and entered it; he followed me," she said in a statement to her Qantas bosses.

"I explained to him that this was inappropriate and asked him to leave. Mr. Fiennes became amorous toward me, and, after a short period of time, I convinced him to leave the toilet, which he did. I left a short time later."

But two other crew members caught the pair leaving the bathroom and told their superiors, and Qantas confirmed that it had suspended Robinson without pay pending an investigation. The stewardess, who'll get the ax if it turns out there was sex, took a swipe at her co-workers.

"At no time did any crew member come to my assistance. At no time were any other customers aware of this incident. At no time did I put the Qantas name or reputation in jeopardy."

Fiennes, 44, who is dating Irish interior designer Sirin Lewenden, is to appear this summer as the evil wizard Lord Voldemort in "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix."

Soft-spoken and impeccably mannered, he's gained a reputation as a cunning womanizer since leaving wife Alex Kingston for Francesca Annis, 18 years his senior. Fiennes wooed Lewenden for eight weeks, employing various stratagems before he finally performed naked yoga for her in her Dublin apartment. He has also been linked to Gina Gershon, Jennifer Lopez and Ellen Barkin.

Elle Wants To Get Laid

The 43-Year-old single mother of two is shocked at her boring lack of a sex life according to sources.

“I just don’t get men hitting on me,” says supermodel Elle MacPherson, who apparently hasn’t had sex for two years!

The Australian supermodel and lingerie designer says she doesn’t have much luck with men.

“It’s crazy but, apart from a brief romantic intermission last summer, I have been single and celibate for two years. How boring is that?”

Men are intimidated by her looks.

She said, “I just don’t get men hitting on me, but I’m a hopeless flirt. I’ll go up to a guy and say, ‘I think you are so beautiful’. But it doesn’t work.”

The overweening years of supermodel confidence have failed to prepare the Amazonian, slightly leathery McPherson for life in her 40s but she is using her celibate estrogen reserve powers for good not for evil, doing countless appearances for charitable events.

Kylie is Single

Kylie Minogue has separated from her boyfriend, the French actor Olivier Martinez.

"Olivier Martinez and Kylie Minogue have officially confirmed that they are no longer a couple," the pair said in a joint statement.

"They have made it clear that the decision to go their separate ways was mutual and amicable. The media's false accusations of disloyalty have saddened them both. The two remain very close friends."

Britain's News of the World tabloid claimed last Sunday that the couple's four-year relationship was on the rocks and alleged Martinez, 41, had been unfaithful. Minogue, 38, was forced to cancel two upcoming concerts on the British leg of her Showgirl Homecoming tour last month due to a respiratory tract infection.

The Australian pop princess, who is back on tour following treatment for breast cancer discovered in mid-2005, also had to pull out halfway through a performance in the north-west English city of Manchester due to the flu. Minogue spoke in glowing terms of Martinez's support for her after her diagnosis with cancer in May 2005 and how he helped her through the darkest days of her treatment.

"Olli was there all the time, helping with the practical stuff and being protective," she told British Elle magazine last November.

"I don't like to say too much in public about Olivier as he's a very private person, but I will say that he was incredible.

"He didn't hesitate in cancelling work and putting projects on hold so he could be with me. He's the most honourable man I have ever met."

Delta Goodrem Rushed to Hospital

Australian pop sensation Delta Goodrem is in hospital in Ireland with a mystery illness, according to media reports.

Delta's partner, former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, rushed her to Beaumont Hospital in Dublin on Sunday night after she complained of stomach pains, the Irish Independent website reported.

Comment was being sought from Goodrem's family in Australia.

The reports quoted a friend of the singer saying Goodrem had undergone tests but that doctors were still unsure if her abdominal pain was caused by a ruptured appendix.

"They have not operated but are doing a lot of tests," she said.

"It looks like it is more serious than the stomach bug they thought she had on Sunday night."

McFadden cancelled his flight to London on Thursday as he maintained a vigil at Goodrem's bedside.

The 22-year-old former Neighbours star was diagnosed in 2003 with Hodgkin's Disease but later declared she had beaten the cancer.

Goodrem and McFadden spent Christmas with her family in Australia.

But the last two years have not always been easy for the couple, who had to weather criticism from the British press for their relationship, which began after the breakdown of McFadden's marriage to former pop star Kerry Katona.

Jennifer Hawkins Ad Banned!

First it was "bloody" Lara Bingle, now humourless airport officials in New Zealand have banned a billboard of Jennifer Hawkins because of its sexy slogan.

Exposing the Kiwis' thin skins, management at Auckland International Airport has rejected a sexy shot of Hawko dressed in lacy red lingerie, holding a stuffed rhino, because the ad's tagline - "Feeling horny?'' - was deemed too raunchy for its pure-as-the-South-Island-snow passengers.

The Lovable campaign, which features our multi-million dollar babe, launched in Australia last July, was so popular here the collection, which Hawkins helped design, sold out.

At a VIP party to reveal the campaign to media and advertising industry experts, the playful puns on the animal theme were considered as hot as the TV star herself.

However this latest shot, created to target Valentine's Day sales, was deemed inappropriate for those sensitive souls across the ditch.

When Confidential were required to email the airport's corporate spokeswoman for comment, even the Kiwi server censored our correspondence, blocking the request because of the word "horny''.

Lovable's divisional manager Dianne Lane said the brand was "bemused" by the airport bosses' response.

"Our campaign is really tongue-in-cheek and playful. We're surprised they took offence because we haven't had a complaint here,'' she said.

"It wasn't the imagery they objected to, but just the word horny.''

We'll take it as read, those soft Kiwis just aren't up for it, then, eh?

Jennifer Hawkins $4m Birthday Present

Miss Universe Jennifer Hawkins has signed what is believed the most lucrative contract ever for an Australian-based model.

Hawkins secured a $4 million, four-year deal with Myer, including share options to give her a direct equity stake, on her 23rd birthday on December 22.


Celebrating yesterday she said: "We opened a bottle of champagne and I said: 'Don't give me any presents, I don't need them'."

Myer chief executive Bernie Brooks said Hawkins's phenomenal selling power was the driving force behind the company's interest.

"When Jennifer wears a dress to say a racing carnival, we would have no difficulty selling 1000 of those dresses over the ensuing weeks," he said.

He said during the Spring Racing Carnival last year people came into Myer stores every day after Hawkinso wore a particular outfit, looking for that outfit or one in different colours.

"She has significant enterprise value and that includes her ability to sell the product she wears and endorses."

Hawkins said yesterday the shares element of her deal came as a shock.

"It's not something I was familiar with," she said.

"I spoke to my mum and dad and they said 'whoa, it's amazing'.

"Now that I've got equity it makes me want to work even harder to make the company successful," she said.

Under the terms of the contract, the options will turn into shares on fulfillment of any one of three conditions:

- THAT the Myer business is sold;

- THAT Myer refloats on the stock market; or

- THE option expiry term of between three and five years elapses.

The shares will then begin to pay dividends to their owners.

Whichever way it goes, the one-time Newcastle Knights cheerleader looks set to do very well.

In addition to almost $1 million a year in cash and an as yet unspecified number of shares, she's also on course for a bonus at the end of the contract.

"At the end of the four-year period, if specific levels of sales have been achieved she can earn a cash bonus as well," Mr Brooks said.

A Myer source said the company was planning to relist on the stock exchange through an initial public offering of shares as early as 2009.

"I think they'll want Jennifer Hawkins to be the face of the float," the source said.

Rival David Jones, which employs Megan Gale under an annually reviewed rolling contract, hinted that Ms Gale might own shares in the share market listed retailer.

"Megan is very motivated for David Jones to be successful," was all group general manager marketing and financial services manager Damian Eels would say.

McNaught Fills In For Hawkins

She has made a buck as Australia's back-up beauty queen, but yesterday Erin McNaught managed to trump Jennifer Hawkins in the Myer spotlight. While Hawkins was expected to announce a new two-year deal as the fashion face of the retailer next month, McNaught stepped into her shoes - for a day - as part of the store's latest national clearance sales campaign.

And keeping up to her McNaughty name, the new Channel 10 presenter showed off what she's got as a model, stripping down to her knickers during the intimates in-store appearance in Brisbane yesterday.

But quick to keep Hawkins happy, Myer executives confirmed an announcement was imminent about their star signing, who sent their sales registers into overdrive last year when she fronted as their fashion ambassador for the first time.

"Jennifer is still under contract with us at this stage, but we'll have more to say in two weeks on a new deal," a spokeswoman told Confidential, after we questioned McNaught's apparent grass-cutting appearance yesterday.

Hawkins will appear in Myer's autumn/winter catalogue, which was shot late last year and is expected to take to the catwalk again for the store's season launch in February.

Not suprisingly McNaught's model management were talking up her talents as fill-in for the Myer job. The store said it had "no plans to use Erin again."

Lara's Love Life Sparks A Furious Bingle

The devastated wife of AFL star Brendan Fevola is outraged over the flippant way in which model Lara Bingle has begun dating cricketer Michael Clarke, just weeks after she was accused of breaking up the Fevola marriage.

As Bingle's manager yesterday confirmed the controversial glamour girl had been in a relationship with the test batsman for two weeks, an emotional Alex Fevola expressed her heartache and dismay over the 19-year-old's devil-may-care approach to wooing Australia's leading sportsmen.

"She's destroyed a family - we've been left here in an absolute mess while she's casually moved on to the next guy," Mrs Fevola said. "I've got two children and their lives - and mine - have been turned upside down, but she doesn't seem to care about that at all.

"She obviously wasn't desperately in love with Brendan so why did she pursue it in the first place?"

Bingle, obviously thinking she'd put the messy incident behind her, resurfaced at the weekend linked to yet another high-profile sportsman - and has subsequently commenced the new year embroiled in controversy.

The Cronulla beauty had been in hiding since Mrs Fevola publicly accused her of having an affair with her husband after discovering a voicemail message - allegedly from Bingle - on his mobile phone.

Bingle was first linked to Clarke in September, but Mrs Fevola said she believed the model lost interest in the cricketer "as soon as she met my husband".

Brendan Fevola and Bingle were introduced on Channel 9's Grand Final Footy Show.

Brendan Fevola has continually denied having an affair with Bingle, but despite his best efforts to reconcile his marriage, Mrs Fevola said a future together was unlikely.

While Bingle's latest bungle may not help her local profile, she is to skate into international fame this March when competing in the UK series of Torvill and Dean: Dancing on Ice.

Bingle's manager Priscilla Leighton-Clarke denied Bingle had ever been romantically involved with Fevola.
