Jodie Marsh denies dating 'Take Me Out' bloke who was secretly engaged

London, Feb 16 (ANI): Jodie Marsh has denied rumours that she dated 'Take Me Out' contestant Damion Merry.

When Merry appeared on the show, it was revealed that he was already engaged and soon after married his fiancee in Las Vegas.

The 33-year-old former bodybuilder, whom Merry claimed to have bedded, has said he fabricated the relationship.

Although the glamour model admitted to kissing the 27-year-old, but said he was never her boyfriend.

"I tell you what, this guy - I went on one date with him, one date," the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.

"We had pictures in a nightclub, he sold the pictures to the TV show or whoever and gave them away and now its being told that we had a whole full blown relationship and that I was his ex girlfriend," she said.

The host then asked her if she "snogged' Merry.

"I kissed him on the lips - and that's it - we're married and having kids!

"So obviously I knew from that one date that he wasn't my ideal man lets say and now I'm getting stick from this show and from people saying 'Oh my God, I can't believe you went out with that guy, he's so hideous'...and I didn't go out with him," she said.

The model took to twitter to comment on what was being said about him.

"Itv bothered more about Jodie marsh than they are all this s*** happening to me? This is so unfair. I've not sold one story to anyone," he tweeted.

His appearance on the show last Saturday has become a YouTube sensation with more than one million hits.

He was introduced by his friend, who said "only recently, he dated the one and only Jodie Marsh, who I think is so natural."

"He absolutely loved the attention, the papping and everything that came with it," the friend said.

"Luckily for all the girls tonight, that relationship didn't work out," the friend said.

Pictures were shown of the pair together smiling and kissing. (ANI)
