Ben Ofoedu's other woman says he made digs at Vanessa Feltz after 'all-night sex sessions'

The woman Ben Ofoedu had an affair with has revealed he made cruel digs at Vanessa Feltz after their steamy 'all night' sex sessions in Thailand.

The 57-year-old beach-club owner, who has asked to be known only as 'Ella', has gone public with shocking details of her torrid romance with the Phats and Smalls crooner after he spoke to the Sunday Mirror last week.

Ella says she fell 'hopelessly' for 'irresistible charmer' Ben with the pair hooking up during his club appearances in Ibiza and Thailand, where she splits her time.

Ben held his hands up to the affair after his heartbroken partner Vanessa told fans in a teary Instagram video that their 16 year relationship had been brought to an abrupt end.

Ella claims she had no idea that Ben was engaged to marry TV and radio favourite Vanessa.

That revelation came to light in disturbing fashion when a holidaymaker commented to Ella that she was a dead-ringer for the This Morning agony aunt.

After some Googling, Ella uncovered the heartbreaking truth behind Ben's double life.

Disgusted, she immediately called off their dalliance, but after being unable to resist 'persistent' 'seducer' Ben, Ella fell back into bed with the one hit wonder when they met up again in Thailand.

Speaking to the Daily Mail about how their romance ramped up during their stay in South East Asia, Ella says: "We then had two wonderful nights in Phuket together in the Hotel Laguna.

"He was passionate, there was loads of sex, all night long, falling asleep and then at it again. It was non-stop, juicy, loving and hot."

Ella continued: "I got completely hooked on Ben, because even apart from the sex, he makes you feel so special and he comes across as such a nice guy. He's all about the seduction."

During their time together in Phuket, Ella says Ben even brought up Vanessa.

Ella says she asked him what was going on given that he was spending time with her.

"He said 'She's always putting me down.' I later thought that was very revealing - he blames everyone except himself.

"At one point I mentioned how I wanted a tummy tuck and he said 'You're just like her, talking about your weight all the time.

"He doesn't need therapy, he needs to have some respect for women," insisted Ella.

In an exclusive interview with the Sunday Mirror last week, Ben revealed he cheated on Vanessa because he was 'insecure' that she wouldn't marry him.

"I cheated because I was insecure. The girl in Ibiza said things like ‘You’re such a great guy. I don’t know why you’re not married. Who wouldn’t want to marry you?’ That coupled with alcohol was a recipe for disaster. It was a volatile situation. That’s why that happened."

Before the cheat scandal came to light, Vanessa explained why she was hesitant to tie the knot for second time.

The presenter had been burned once before when her husband Michael Kurer left her after she gave birth to their daughters.

Vanessa said the divorce derailed her "to the most terrific extent" and has made her "reluctant" to ever walk down the aisle again.

Revealing her latest break-up on Instagram earlier this month Vanessa said 'the trust has gone it can never be repaired.
"I honestly didn’t now what to say to you on Instagram," she began the emotional video message.

"And so I just wanted to say obviously I feel incredibly sad and I’m pretty disappointed and shocked and all those horrible things, but also full of resolve. I am not going to let this defeat me.”

Appearing on This Morning days later as she reprised her role as agony aunt, Vanessa said: "People have been amazing. Absolutely amazing, and of course it helps a lot.

“I can’t sleep at all, so reading thousands and thousands of messages from lovely people on Instagram is something to do in the night.”

"When you have to end a relationship it’s very hard. I’ve had what feels like millions of messages from so, so many people going through it.

“I wouldn’t want to minimise in any way what it’s like when you’re heartbroken. It’s horrible.”
