Ulrika Jonsson has taken a swipe at Strictly Come Dancing star Tony Adams following claims he rejected her after she gave him her number.
Tony, 56, previously stated that he was on an ITV chat show in 1999 with Ulrika but on the same night he met model Caprice Bourret, who he eventually went on to date.
The former footballer also said that despite Ulrika slipping her phone number to him, he had “no desire to follow up her interest.”

However 55 year old Ulrika has now hit back at his claims and said: “There’s not an ounce of truth in it, I’ve never met the guy.”

Sharing his perspective of what happened on the night, Tony previously said: “I was on the show with Ulrika Jonsson, who slipped her phone number on a piece of paper into my pocket.
“I was flattered but I had no desire to follow up her interest.
“I was more interested in Caprice, who was Ian [Wright]’s sidekick on the show and who made it plain she was attracted to me.”
Despite Tony’s claims, according to the website IMDB, Ulrika was not a part of the cast who starred on Friday Night’s All Wright with host Ian Wright.

Tony, who is currently strutting his stuff on this year’s series of Strictly, had a short lived romance with model Caprice which came two years after the end of his marriage to his ex-wife Jane Shea.
In his 2017 memoir SOBER: Football. My Story. My Life, Tony described sex with Caprice during their secret romance was “like a drug”.
He said: “I don’t think it was purely physical – and there were plenty who would say I was punching above my weight…

“In the end, though, I knew I would have to end the relationship due to the lack of emotional connection.
“It felt like an act, that she was playing a game before and after she met me.
“The honesty and sincerity I saw initially got lost behind the façade. I did have second thoughts – and there is always regret when a relationship ends.
“But I knew it was right to move on. Sex can be such a drug and could have kept me in the relationship,” he added.
