Love Island star Anna Vakili has said that she was “arrested” for wearing skinny jeans while holidaying in Iran.
The stunning 31-year-old beauty is from Iran and has now detailed how she was “dragged” into a police van for wearing “revealing” skinny jeans.
Anna recently appeared on Johnny Seifert’s Secure The Insecure podcast, and spoke of how women in Iran can be punished for wearing certain kinds of clothing.
Recalling the ordeal she said: “It was really scary because I just remember all these police women grabbing me and trying to put me in the van.
“They were saying in Farsi, ‘Your jeans are too tight and it’s not Islamic,’ and they were trying to push me into the car.

“My auntie was grabbing me and pulling me away and saying, ‘She’s English, she’s from England, she doesn’t know’.
“I pretended that I couldn’t speak Farsi and they let me go because I was from England and I didn’t know the laws enough.”
This comes after the TV star and influencer revealed that she had a secret abortion when she was just 21, while chatting on her and her sister’s podcast, Sisters in the City.
Opening up about what she went through, Anna divulged: “I feel really scared to open up about this, but I think it’s important to do it because I learnt from my own mistake.

“And if other people can learn from my mistake then it’s the best thing to come from this.
“When I was younger – about 21, I was having unprotected sex – I don’t know what I was thinking. I wasn’t thinking, and I ended up pregnant.”
She added: “Obviously I was really young and I wasn’t ready, and I had an abortion.
“At that age you don’t think what can happen and I have deep regrets that I did end up pregnant.
“I didn’t wish to be pregnant and have to get an abortion – I don’t like that. So if you can avoid that – do.”
She then gave an insight into how she practices safe sex today, adding: “Ever since then I’ve practiced safe sex and I’m now on the coil.”
Anna then went on to say that she was pulled out of sex education classes by teachers while at school because her parents didn’t sign the needed consent form.
“In school the teachers sent a letter home for our parents to sign to say if it was okay for us to sit in sex education, and my parents didn’t sign it.
“And it was the most embarrassing thing ever because the teacher took me out of the class when they did sex education.
“I was the only person, apart from one other Asian or Middle Eastern person. I’ll never forget that – it was so traumatising.”
