Danny Cipriani has claimed that Caroline Flack text him on Valentine’s Day to tell him she ‘had to plead guilty’ at her impending assault trial.
Love Island host Caroline pleaded not guilty when appearing at Highbury and Islington’s Magistrates court on December 23 on chargers of assault by beating.
In a raw video posted to his official Instagram account, Danny, who briefly dated Caroline, revealed they were in regular contact and confided their darkest secrets in each other.
Danny claimed: “She texted me on Friday and she said that she had to plead guilty, and I had a game of rugby.
“Which again, is another story, another distraction – everything is a distraction until we actually understand that love and healing and coming together is what we need to do.”
He previously tweeted: “I missed her call because of a f****** game.
“I’ve been up all night. Never cried this much. But I’m showing u it’s ok to be vulnerable.[sic]”
Later on in the clip, Danny said he plans on releasing voice notes sent to him via Caroline around a week before her death.
Danny said: “[She was] Someone so kind and so beautiful and had just a many faults as me and you, but she was never malicious. She was kind.

“If I play you the voice notes she sent me when she was broken… she moved on she spent the last twenty seconds asking how I am and how was rugby.”
The sportsman added: “I’m gonna play the messages at some point.
“The voice notes she left about 15 days ago because people need to hear it.”
