A long-serving police office was accused by her ex-boyfriend of appearing in porn movies, a court heard.
Stephanie Torrance told Hamilton Sheriff Court her former partner's claims, including that she had fetish accounts on Instagram and X-rated site Only Fans are "absolutely not true at all"
The 38-year-old was giving evidence in the trial of Jonathan Barclay, who denies a campaign of domestic abuse against her, the Daily Record reports.

She said he accused her of having sex in videos with other men in videos uploaded to adult websites.
And after they split up, he threatened to expose her to Police Scotland and the media if she didn't return a vacuum cleaner.
Stephanie, who has been a police officer for 14 years, said she had to take time off her work due to the impact of the abuse on her mental health.
She said the pair split up and got back together several times in 2020, while living in East Kilbride.
He regularly sent her poems and love songs in a bid to win her back, including a link to the YouTube video for Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You.
She said that once the relationship was finally over, Barclay made the porn threats, initially over WhatsApp, in early December 2020.
Stephanie added: "He was saying that I was selling parts of my body. It started getting quite strange.
"He was saying I had separate Instagram accounts and that I had been selling my feet. He said, 'If you were struggling for money, you should've asked me for help because I love you'.
"I felt stressed and anxious about it. He said he would contact police about the activities I was engaged in. I was really upset. I said I was going to block him and that's what I did."
She said it happened again on Christmas Day 2020, via email, after she'd blocked him on WhatsApp.
Stephanie said he sent her what he claimed was proof of her appearing on porn websites and wrote, "I'm embarrassed for you and I hope your mum doesn't find out about it".
She added: "He said, 'Good luck on Only Fans'. I was appalled and confused.
"It was quite distressing. It was just all very strange. These were allegations of things that are absolutely not true at all.
"I just wanted left alone to get on with my life. It got to the stage I was off work sick because I just got so stressed with it all.
"I was off work for about seven weeks."
The emails, which were read in court, accused her of sleeping with other men in their home and said pornographic videos of her were available online.
The messages also claimed she had sex toys, handcuffs, and a cushion bearing the Porn Hub website logo. In one, he gave her a deadline to reply to his claims saying he would be "selling the f****** story".
Barclay also described her as "the woman of my dreams" and said: "I had love for you at the first sight."
He also wrote: "I was in a relationship for two years with a porn star who works in the police."
Stephanie said she made her bosses aware of his claims and he was arrested, adding: "It was like it was never going to end."
The trial was adjourned.
