Young blokes everywhere can rejoice, as lads mag favourite Jennifer Ellison is officially back on the market. Tony Richardson, her boyfriend of six years was found to have cheated on the ex-Brookside star and she has suitably shown him the door. Shalimar Wimble (what a great name!), the ex-girlfriend of Chelsea footballer John Terry has been named as the ‘other woman’, after the two met at a London club a month ago.
Jennifer was said to have given a lot to the relationship (she supported him throughout his 3 month prison sentence for motoring offences), after all, she’s only 24 and so has spent all of her adult life with him. Richardson had yet to convince her family though, and they are said to be “relieved” that all is now over between the couple.
Jane, Jennifer’s mother is one such relative glad to see the back of Richardson, telling chums: "Thank God he is out of her life at last. She has loyally stood by him over the years and he has rubbed her face in it. She was even there waiting for him when he came out of jail, and this is how he repays her. It's a case of goodbye and good riddance."
The Daily Star have quoted Jennifer as saying: "My relationship with Tony Richardson is over. He has betrayed me in the worst possible way. This girl is welcome to him and I hope they are both very happy." Without resorting to any “you go girlfriend” cliches, kudos to Jennifer for being a young woman confident enough to stand up for herself and her principles.
