Claire Richards Admits She Almost Cheated On Her Husband With Dane Bowers

'I Almost Cheated With Dane Bowers'

Steps star Claire Richards isn't quite as squeaky clean as we had always thought - she's admitted to 'almost' cheating on her ex-hubby with none other than Katie Price's ex, Dane Bowers.

Claire makes the revelation in her new autobiography, All Of Me, where she tells how she spent a night with the former Another Level star in a hotel room following a wedding.

"Years before he'd told [Steps bandmate] Lee that he fancied me, but nothing came of it because he was dating Katie Price," she wrote in an extract from the book currently being serialised in The Sun.

"When I got back to my room I wasn't ready for the night to end, so I decided to knock on Dane's door and ask him if he could help me undo my dress! I fancied him a bit and I was up for a flirt.

"We chatted for ages then he started kissing me and we ended up having a bit of a fumble, although we didn't have sex. I woke up in his bed fully clothed the next morning and had to do the walk of shame."

"I gave Dane a lift back to London that day and as I dropped him off I said to him, 'I'm married; I can't do this'. 'I think that's a real shame,' he replied. 'We could have given it a go'."

Claire didn't tell her husband, Mark, about what had happened and their marriage eventually broke down.

"When I got home, Mark was there. I put what happened with Dane to the back of my mind and tried again to make our marriage work - but it still wasn't right."

All of Me will be released on July 7th
