Ferne ex ‘is sorry’

THE ex-boyfriend of reality TV star Ferne McCann said he is “sorry” people were injured when he threw acid in a nightclub.

Arthur Collins, 25, claims he thought the liquid was a date rape drug which he had snatched from a reveller’s hand.

He told Wood Green Crown Court in north London: “I can’t tell you how sorry I am.”

Collins, of Broxbourne, Herts, denies assault charges relating to the incident at the club in Dalston, east London.

The trial continues.
