Katie’s family said at the time: “We were completely shocked and devastated to hear the news that my grandmother has been conducting immoral activities, including prostitution and pornography.
“We, as a family, disassociate ourselves wholly from these activities and from any future stories that arise from them.”
Sheila since took part in a documentary for Channel 4 in which she told her story of being Britain’s oldest escort.

Speaking on Channel 4 documentary My Granny the Escort she said: “I get lonely and like the companionship of a gentleman, but if you want the honest truth, I do it because I love sex.”
She also appeared on This Morning on which, the octogenarian insisted that she didn’t cost Katie her place on X Factor.
She said: “She ruined my career. I’m not a prostitute, I’m an escort. I go out with gentlemen and I charge them for my time.
"We may just sit and talk, we may go out for dinner, we may go to the cinema, and we might do other things.”
Sheila, who has starred in a film called The Great British Granny Bang, started working in the adult industry in her 80s after two failed marriages.
