AFTER VOW HE’D TURNED OVER NEW LEAF Amir says he’s changed but sent 77 messages trying to hook up with me

-

ha,” and “pull the covers down lol.” When she later sent him a photo of her bedroom he responded: “Wow that our bed ha.”

From December 17 – just one day after he publicly patted his wife’s bump at his birthday bash at Birmingham’s Argeela Lounge – he has sent 77 messages, often asking Emma to hook up with him in Manchester.

In the run- up to Monday’s TV appearance he contacted Emma trying to arrange a meeting with her in the city on Friday night. During the ITV appearance, Amir told how he had gone into the jungle to show people he was a family man.

Faryal told the hosts Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid: “I have to force him to go out now.”

But the day after the interview Amir was back on to Emma sending her messages via WhatsApp, checking “are we still on for Friday?”

He told her they could meet in secret and that she was “in good shape”.

Emma, from Shrewsbury, didn’t go ahead with the meeting. She said: “When we first started messaging and talking to each other he wasn’t with his wife, they were separated.

“I was single and he seemed a nice guy and I thought he was good -looking. But then they got back together I spoke out to warn Faryal.

Sneaky

“Now he’s out of the jungle and he has just carried out as he was before.

“I didn’t go to meet him and now I wouldn’t meet him. He said he wanted to take me out in Manchester.

“But I was cross with him, especially after him saying all the stuff about being back with his wife. I sympathise with Faryal. He says he feels trapped because she is pregnant and that he doesn’t want to be in that relationsh­ip. He said she’s only with him for the fame.

“But you have to question what he says. He’s sneaky.

“To me he comes across as young and naive. He’s been asking me to send videos and to pull my top down.

“He’s an embarrassm­ent to his family and children. I just hope he learns a lesson from this and that Faryal can get some insight into what her husband is up to behind her back. He sees women as disposable objects. I guess he was hoping I’d be one of them.”

Amir, who won Olympic silver as a lightweigh­t at the Athens games in 2004, announced this week he will return to boxing with a bout at The Echo Arena in Liverpool in April.

On BBC Radio 5 yesterday he confessed the last two years had been “really difficult” but returning to boxing will give him discipline and focus.
