Vanessa Feltz’s ex Ben Ofoedu hits back in grinning video at claims she ‘faked’ orgasms

Vanessa Feltz's ex-fiancé Ben Ofoedu has responded after the TV presenter said before they split that she faked orgasms with him.

Vanessa, 61, revealed last month the couple had split after 16 years together, with Ben, 50, then confirming he cheated on her eight years ago, and more recently sexted one lady and flirted with another.

Phat & Small singer Ben hasn't taken the break-up quietly, publicly declaring how sorry he is, and saying he's been "trolled and abused" since.

Now, he has responded after Vanessa gave an insight into their love life.

Speaking before her split, she said: "Experts say if you fake an orgasm, how will your lover/partner ever really know what you like? So they'll never do it.

Chatting on the Grazia Life Advice podcast "I think that is the worst advice because sometimes it is just rude not to fake it.

"Sometimes your partner is trying every trick in the book, they have been twiddling and licking and flicking, they're absolutely 10/10 for effort."

The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant added: "I'm not saying do it every time but on those occasions – when you're not concentrating and thinking about defrosting the freezer and are never going to get there.

"You've got to fake it, it's only polite. Everyone saves face and no one's embarrassed or ashamed."

Today, Ben shared a short clip of himself walking along a river, wearing black sunglasses and a black coat with a rucksack on his back.

Speaking to the camera, Ben, with a smile on his face says: "Oh, so now you're faking it."

Ben then grins and gives a small chuckle, going on to say: "Have a great day."

Vanessa recently praised fans who have showered her with love and support as she opened up on celebrating her first birthday as a single woman.

Writing on her 61st birthday in her Yours magazine column, she said: "I've been showered with support and virtually hugged by thousands of lovely strangers.

"In the long, lonely hours when I have no hope of sleep, I read every single message and often reply, a stranger has thought to make time to reach out and hold me. I am touched to my very soul.

During an exclusive interview with The Mirror, Ben laid himself bare as he confessed to cheating on the star, explaining: "So many people have been hurt, not just Vanessa.

"I was so close to her grandchildren, her daughters, and their husbands, we're a close-knit family, my family have been appalled by it as well, there's been a lot of pain."

Vanessa has been frank about her devastation over the split. Speaking on This Morning last month she said: "I feel hurt. I feel terribly humiliated. And lots of people have said you shouldn't, so I think that’s quite helpful. To believe in your own relationship isn’t stupid.”
