With his 6ft 7in stooped and bowed, and his head hanging, England footballer Peter Crouch, 29, cut a distinctly shamed figure as he emerged today.

The Tottenham Hotspur striker made his first appearance in public following revelations of a lurid encounter with a teenage prostitute while on a stag night in Madrid.

Today a stony-faced Abbey Clancy, 24, was seen on the phone at a riding stables where she was being consoled by friend Toni Terry, wife of Chelsea footballer John Terry.

Dressed in riding gear, she looked tired and angry as the pair are set to sit down to discuss their future together in the wake of the cheating scandal that has left Abbey 'devastated'.

 

 

 

 

 

On the rocks? Abbey emerged today at a riding stables near Lingfield with John Terry's wife Toni while Crouch kept his head down as he arrived at the Tottenham Hotspur training ground this morning

 

 

 

Friend in need: Abbey was being comforted by friend Toni Terry, who has recently weathered allegations of her Chelsea footballer husband's cheating

 

 

The England striker drove into Tottenham's complex in Chigwell behind a pair of shades, and he was unsurprisingly tight-lipped.

Once among his team-mates, Crouch found time to joke and smile as he was put through his pre-season paces ahead of Saturday's season-opener against Manchester City.

After England's woeful World Cup performance, Crouch has joined the litany of overpaid stars that have been photographed falling out of nightclubs, smoking and - in Wayne Rooney's case - urinating in the street.

And now Crouch has taken matters to a new low after being accused of cheating on the model and television presenter with a teenage prostitute.

Humble and kind: The young prostitute said Crouch was more pleasant than the Spanish footballers she claims to have been with

 

Undercover lover: Crouch leaves training in his car hiding behind dark glasses

 

 

 

 

The woman, who calls herself Monica Mint, claims Crouch paid her £800 for liaisons in the back of a taxi and at an £80-a-night hotel.

Last night Crouch's spokesman was unavailable and his Premier League club, Tottenham Hotspur, refused to comment.

Model Abbey, 24, is said to be furious after hearing about her fiancé's alleged betrayal and is believed to have called Crouch and screamed: 'I can't believe this. How could you humiliate me? Am I not good enough for you?'

And a friend of Abbey, who Crouch became engaged 13 months ago, said: 'Abigail is utterly devastated. How would anyone feel at learning that?'

 

 

 

The new horsey set: Abbey looked more relaxed when she was in the company of friend and fellow WAG Toni

 

 

Broken home: Abbey seen leaving the home the couple share in Surrey this morning

 

 

 

The couple have a home in Surrey but yesterday Miss Clancy was away in Manchester filming her satellite series Great British Hairdresser.

She and Crouch spoke by phone yesterday but the friend said Miss Clancy would not make any decision regarding their future until she had spoken with the footballer face-to-face.

Back to work: Peter Crouch training at Spurs Lodge today

 

A friend said: 'She tried to put a brave face on things and got through the day as best as she could like a professional but you could see she was in pieces from the news.

'Abbey doesn't know what to think and feels really hurt.'

 

And when she left filming last night she was still wearing her engagement ring.

 

The allegations against Crouch emerged as he was dropped from the England squad on Saturday following the team's World Cup failure and Spurs appeared to be moving towards selling him.

 

The affair is reported to have taken place after Crouch, 29, went on a stag weekend to Madrid ahead of the wedding of school friend Ed Aitkin.

The player, who has a £6million fortune, arrived in Spain on Friday, July 16 - a year to the day after he and Miss Clancy announced their engagement.

 

The liaison with the 19-year-old Algerian-born prostitute is said to have taken place in the early hours of the next day after.

 

She was introduced to the footballer at the Buddha del Mar nightclub.

 

 

He began dancing with the girl before inviting her to join him and a group of friends in a roped-off area of the club, where they were drinking from a two-litre bottle of vodka and had already apparently had a bottle of champagne.

 

A friend of Crouch asked how much she charged before she and the £70,000-a-week footballer got into a taxi together. He counted out 1,000 euros in cash - worth about £850 - before she performed a sex act.

Engaged: Crouch and Miss Clancy enjoyed a romantic holiday in Sardinia just last month

 

Monica said: 'We stopped at the traffic lights while I was doing what he wanted and he didn't seem to mind that people could have seen him.

'Because he is so tall, his legs were squashed up and the driver was joking as out movements were shaking the seat.'

They then checked in to the three-star Rafael Hotel, where Crouch insisted the room was in the girl's name - but he had to pay with his credit card.

Miss Mint told the News of the World Crouch was more pleasant than Spanish footballers she claims to have been with. 'Peter was humble and kind,' she said.

 

'The Spanish players are arrogant divas who treat me like a whore. I don't think Peter is good looking, but he is a nice person.'

 

She said she did not know he was engaged to Miss Clancy, adding: 'I can't believe he paid for sex with someone like me when he has a gorgeous woman like her at home.'

 

Crouch started dating Miss Clancy in 2006. They briefly split that summer when he sent her home from the World Cup in Germany after she was involved in a cocaine scandal.

 

She was then accused of cheating on him by rekindling a relationship with an ex-boyfriend after she had started dating Crouch.

"The Spanish players are arrogant divas who treat me like a whore."

 

And I bet they treat doctors like doctors and lawyers like lawyers.

 

Crouch is such a ****, I guess you have to feel a bit of empathy for Abbey, but seriously, would that beautiful woman be with the gangly man if he wasn't making her yearly salary every week?

 

It's annoying how people think hes this LOL legend because he did an annoying robot dance and looks like a freak, as well as the fact he'll jump at the slightest chance to get his face on any kind of awful TV program and make crappy cameos where he intentionally makes himself look like a dick for laughs. I bet his agent has fucking nightmares about what he wants to go on next (For those who don't know, football agents see television revenue as peanuts, and most will do what they can to keep embarrassing football personalities out of the limelight as it can lead to a lot of ridicule from away fans and even dent a players confidence and effect them on the pitch- they just want them to keep their head down, stay professional and focus on just being a sports star).

He jumps and he scores...

He jumps and he scores...

 

................while playing away.:rolleyes:

True, but then she isn't any better on that score. Did you see her on that awful James Corden World Cup show?:dozey:

in fairness the majority of times he leans on the backs of others then scores. or pulls their dreadlocks.

Good one.:lol:

So in other words, you're saying he's a "cheater" in more ways than one.............. :rolleyes:

Yes but I actually was quite surprised that she didn't sound like an absolute knubbin (Even if she's a bit clueless she has enough personality to get away with it). Really though, any other WAG would have been stiff as a board, she's as good as any female co-host, I was impressed because of low expectation.

 

And that's her job, her job being, absolutely anything that gets her attention, she's in that game of getting seen buying clothes and being in magazines, getting a slow on a show with millions of viewers (Who are only watching because there's nothing else to watch about football after the games) is exactly where she wants to be, and I don't know who could blame her for it.

 

She'd happily admit her main focus is to be a celebrity, Peter Crouch has to claim his main focus is football when really he's a self obsessed ****.

Is that meant to be a compliment?:\

I don't blame her, I blame the producers for giving her the job in the first place!:dozey:

Like the vast majority of top-level footballers, unfortunately, Terry and Cole being classic examples.

Yes it is a compliment, it's very easy to sit back and satirise presenters as being total bastards, but when you get someone who you don't expect to be halfway decent, you realise that it's not an easy job. 90% of people would look ridiculous trying to present a show and she did a very good job in getting her personality across.

 

Well basically, I don't think she can be on par with Crouch as a total dickhead as you have said, because TV/magazines is her business, and it shouldn't be his. He comes across as a total try-hard personality on TV, she's actually pretty good, as good as any female presenter, Christine Bleakley, etc.

A "business" she has only managed to get into on the back of her relationship with a second-rate England player who is more famous for his "robot dance" and stature than anything he's ever done on the pitch.:dozey:

Well that isn't a compliment in any way whatsoever....................... :stunned:

Do you think Abbey really loves him, or is she only with him because he gets paid more in a week than the average worker earns in a year?

And because it helped get her "noticed", leading to all that TV work she probably wouldn't have got otherwise.:rolleyes:

I see your point, and I agree and I do think she's a gold digging whore for doing so, but that's another chapter, as far as getting into television and getting her face all over the place, that's her job, how she got there is another thing.

 

Well that isn't a compliment in any way whatsoever....................... :stunned:

 

Of course you wouldn't, you aren't reasonable. I don't get Christine Bleakley, and I hate that bastard Adrian Chiles, but I understand that as presenters they can do their job and not look incompetent or unprofessional, and Abbey's just as good as they are.

 

It may be of your opinion that Bleakley's some inanimate stick figure on camera, but anyone who's reasonable will understand that not just anyone can do those jobs, it does require a certain amount of talent to read an autocue and improvise at the same time, and give the impression that it's light and breezy and you aren't even trying, as well as the ear piece relaying other information about the show. You wouldn't think of anything like that, if you dislike someone, everything they do and everything they are is shockingly awful nomatter what they achieve.

 

As I said, get any other WAG to present a prime-time show, and they'll mumble, make shit jokes, be incredibly shy, and Abbey is actually talented at getting herself across, regardless of how she got into the business in the first place.

 

But in your mental mind seeing as I'm giving her credit for doing something that's essentially very difficult, I guess I'm pro-Abbey and I love everything she does.

Well as I intimated, I don't think either of them is any good. For good presenting, you need look no further than Phil Schofield and Holly Willoughby, who are in a totally different class from the likes of Chiles and Bleakley, who are just embarrassing by comparison.

For the record, Sue Barker and Annabel Croft are both extremely good female sports presenters too.;)

 

But in your mental mind seeing as I'm giving her credit for doing something that's essentially very difficult, I guess I'm pro-Abbey and I love everything she does.

 

I don't actually care whether you do or not. Even if she is better than your average WAG, that's not really saying much........................ :dozey:

Holly Willoughby? Hahaha. There's fuck all difference between Holly Willoughby or Christine Bleakley, but clearly I'm not an expert to know the intricate differences in TELEVISION PRESENTING as you are, that's knowledge which is sure to get you far in life (I've just realised that I'm in a Holly Willoughby vs Christine Bleakley best television presenter debate! Hahahaha).

 

It's not just that she's better then an average WAG, most WAGs would be awful, some would be OK, even less would be good, and none of them would be good enough to to actually pass as a television presenter. She's not just very good looking, she has talent and is a good personality, that's all I'm trying to say, so that's her job and she's good at it/gets away with it, whatever.

 

If you don't feel she hits the daring presenting heights of the genius work of Holly Willoughby in her brilliantly devised texts Dancing on Ice, The Xtra Factor and This Morning then that's too bad, but she doesn't look ridiculous or dull on TV and she can present well, and like I said 99% of people can't do what her or Christine Bleakley do (And of course nobody can match the unique and varied brilliant talents of the genius that is Holly Willoughby) and that's all I'm saying, she can present shows and not embarrass herself, by the very basic standards of presenting (Well I used to think it was pretty basic but now I find myself psychoanalysing the radical political shock wave stances Willoughby used to make when she was an anarchist on Ministry of Mayhem back in the day) a presenter is either embarrassing (That would be like me or you or anyone we know trying to present) or fine (Willoughy, Bleakley).

 

If you think it's not a compliment that I said she's just as good as Bleakley, that only makes sense in your little mind and nobody elses. Saying that a novice presenter is as good at her job as someone who's just signed like a £6million pound contract and is the most sought after presenter going is a compliment, so stop talking shit about the different levels and qualities of presenting.

 

God damn whack job you are.

Abbey Clancy ditches the engagement ring after Peter Crouch's misbehaviour with blondes in French nightclub... while on holiday with HER

It's a hat-trick Peter Crouch didn't want as he tries to win back his fiancée after his fling with a teenage prostitute.

The England footballer's desperate attempts to worm his way back into model Abbey Clancy's good books were yesterday undone as fresh evidence emerged of him misbehaving with at least two other women.

The 6ft 7in striker was pictured getting up close and personal with two blondes on a night out on the French Riviera last month - during what was supposed to be a romantic break with Miss Clancy.

She was in London filming her reality TV hairdressing show yesterday and was not wearing her £200,000 engagement ring.

 

 

Quick substitution: Crouch keeps up the flirting with another blonde as he rests

 

 

AND WHAT WOULD FABIO SAY ABOUT HIM SMOKING?

 

Although it won't be the main indiscretion in Abbey Clancy's eyes, Peter Crouch is also the latest England international to be caught smoking. At odds with their images as super-fit athletes, a series of Fabio Capello's players have been pictured smoking since the team flopped at the World Cup, including Wayne Rooney, Ashley Cole and Aaron Lennon, who had a cigar after the 4-1 loss to Germany.

 

 

 

It was claimed in the News Of The World that Crouch kissed at least two women on the lips, while a third blonde branded the star a 'sex pest', claiming he groped and flirted with her in the club.

Tottenham Hotspur star Crouch, 29, is now believed to be extremely worried about the possibility of yet more women claiming liaisons with him.

The pictures were taken in the exclusive resort of Juan-les-Pins in the early hours of July 7, as Miss Clancy briefly flew back to London for a TV appearance.

It was just ten days later that Crouch flew to Madrid on a friend's stag party and had sex with 19-year-old vice girl Monica Mint. Nurse Jo Elliot, 27, from Wakefield, West Yorkshire, said Crouch groped her when she asked for a photograph.

She told the NOTW: 'He was coming on to me. He was being a blatant sex pest.'

 

Crouch then moved on to an intimate clinch with a blonde in a black dress with white hoops, before flirting with another blonde in a white, see-through dress.

 

 

Leaning in: Crouch caresses the blonde's thigh

 

 

 

Fancy a boogie? Crouch shows off his famous 'robot' dance moves

 

Last night, a friend confirmed that after the latest pictures Miss Clancy had taken off her ring - which she had only just been taken to wearing again following the first scandal.

A source told the Mail last night: 'Abbey had been speaking to Peter and it looked like she was on her way to forgiving him. But now, she doesn't know what to do. She can't trust him at all.'

 

Lying low: An unshaven Crouch zooms past the cameras as he arrived home last night

 

 

 

And she appeared to be putting on a brave face as she filmed her new E4 show Great British Hairdresser in London yesterday.

Although she had removed her engagement ring again, according to The Sun, crew members said she was laughing and joking with them and defiantly 'dancing around in a sexy white shirt and black leather hot pants' as she filmed at City Hall near London Bridge.

 

 

 

 

Telling sign: Abbey arrives to film her reality TV hairdressing show in London yesterday evening pointedly without her engagement ring on

 

A show insider told the paper: 'You'd have no idea her relationship is in tatters. Abbey is hiding her heartbreak well.

'She was cracking jokes and smiling most of the afternoon. We didn't know what to expect but she is obviously trying to be as professional as possible - and good on her.

'It must be amazingly hard to have gone through what she has gone through in the past week or so and still turn up for work and carry on like nothing has happened.'

Dude...#1, a real man doesn't do **** to his bro because if she was lying or exaggerating you have yourself a lying ho and you came out looking like a douche to your friend.

What the fuck.

 

I have a feeling your "ghetto" or some shit.
