Celebrity Big Brother star Ben Jardine’s wife Stephanie broke down in tears as she recalled the time he allegedly told her he wanted to start a family, before getting another woman pregnant.

Stephanie was reduced to tears as she broke her silence in the wake of reports her estranged husband, who she met on Married at First Sight, is set to become a father eight months after they split.

In a series of Instagram stories she said: “Ben said to me that I would make an amazing mum and if he found out the next day that I was pregnant then he would be the happiest man alive.

“That memory really hurts me now, because I’ve been told by one of his friends since that the girl he got pregnant had conceived around this time.”

Stephanie insisted they were a “real couple – not just for TV” and accused Ben of lying about the date they split up. Stephanie claims her marriage ended in March of this year, as opposed to Ben’s claim of eight months ago.

She said the “bottom fell out of my world” when she learned he had shared a “kiss and a cuddle” with another woman – something he confessed live on Fubar radio in March.

“It broke my heart to do what I had to do, I couldn’t give someone so lovely and so nice what she wanted,” he said. “She was gutted to be totally honest and she still wanted to try, but it ain’t there, kiddo.

“I was thinking, ‘How can you love me?’ You can’t play with affairs of the heart can you.”

Recalling the moment she heard the interview, Stephanie said: “I started to shake as I opened my phone and clicked on a link someone had sent. There was my husband sitting there laughing and joking about how he had cheated on me and we were getting divorced.

“I literally fell to my knees. I was shaking like a leaf and sobbing so hard that my friend started to panic. There was just too much to process.”

Jardine is currently on Celebrity Big Brother and has riled fans with his “attention seeking” behaviour.
