ULRIKA Jonsson has slammed Strictly’s Tony Adams for claiming he rejected her after she slipped her number in his pocket.
The former footballer recalled being on an ITV chat show in 1999 with Ulrika on the same night he met model Caprice Bourret, who is went on to date.

Tony revealed: “I was on the show with Ulrika Jonsson, who slipped her phone number on a piece of paper into my pocket.
“I was flattered but I had no desire to follow up her interest.
“I was more interested in Caprice, who was Ian [Wright]’s sidekick on the show and who made it plain she was attracted to me.”
Now Ulrika has hit back at Tony’s claim, saying: “There’s not an ounce of truth in it, I’ve never met the guy”.
According to IMDB, Ulrika was not one of the series cast who starred on Friday Night’s All Wright with host Ian Wright, as Tony claimed.
The Arsenal legend, 55, had a short-lived relationship with blonde beauty Caprice – two years after the end of his marriage to ex-wife Jane Shea.
Writing in his 2017 memoir SOBER: Football. My Story. My Life, he revealed sex with the supermodel during their secret romance was “like a drug”.
He continued: “I don’t think it was purely physical – and there were plenty who would say I was punching above my weight…
“In the end, though, I knew I would have to end the relationship due to the lack of emotional connection.
“It felt like an act, that she was playing a game before and after she met me.
“The honesty and sincerity I saw initially got lost behind the facade. I did have second thoughts – and there is always regret when a relationship ends.
“But I knew it was right to move on. Sex can be such a drug and could have kept me in the relationship.”
