Kelly Brook slapped my face after I chatted up stripper so I cut my wrist after, Danny Cipriani says

ENGLAND rugby ace Danny Cipriani admits he cut his own wrist after a disaster night out in Las Vegas with then girlfriend Kelly Brook.

The rugby star, 35, dated the model, 43, between August 2008 and June 2010.

In his new autobiography, Danny reveals how their stormy relationship unravelled spectacularly for the first time when they went on holiday to Las Vegas in the summer of 2010 - and Kelly encouraged him to enjoy a lapdance in a strip club.

He admits: “It all started because I was very p*ssed. I was having a dance and it felt like she was doing a bit more than a dance.

“I started chatting some cheesy lyrics to her.”

Danny told the stripper he was breaking up with Kelly and would be back in the American gambling city the following week - which she relayed to pals in the toilets, all in front of his horrified girlfriend.

He says: “Kelly came out and slapped me around the face.”

Kelly had to be restrained by several bouncers, as limbs flailed everywhere.

“It all felt like some massive crazy reality show,” he adds.

Back at the hotel Danny went into the bathroom and grabbed a piece of broken glass.

Miming raking it down the length of his arm he says: “I just went through myself like that.

“I felt like I just… I couldn’t express how I felt because I had so much within that I hadn’t dealt with. So that’s what I felt the route to take was.”

While Danny admits his actions were “wrong”, he says Kelly was constantly running “hot and cold.”

He added: “Me and Kelly were in a position where she kept trying to break up with me, and I felt like she was pushing and pulling away from me all the time.

“And that up and down feeling made me feel a bit like, ‘F*** it, if that’s the case’.

“I’m not saying it’s the right thing to do, but that’s how I felt.”

He claims living with the pin-up voted FHM’s sexiest woman in the world was not as much fun as you’d think because Kelly didn’t do “deep and meaningfuls”.

He adds: “I guess I was always at some point seeking and searching in a different way.”

Danny was just 19 when he joined Wasps as a gifted fly-half in 2007. Just months later he was in the England squad.

But his fame reached a new level in 2008 when he fell for Kelly, now 43.

Rugby union player Danny dated Kelly for nearly two years until June 2010.
