Sale Sharks fly-half Danny Cipriani has been accused of sending 'sexual' texts to a star of TV show The Only Way Is Essex while he was dating Kirsty Gallacher.
The alleged "flurry of messages" to Danni Levy came a few months before the Sky Sports News host split with the 28-year-old, according to The Sun.
Cipriani is accused of telling Levy that he wanted them to have "crazy, powerful sex" and "spend 12 hours ruining each other".
In another, he is said to have admitted: "I should be a good guy and you are trouble!! But you're gorgeous. It's hard. And I'm newly seeing someone — don't want to hurt that person."
Cipriani recently confirmed that he would be returning to Wasps after six years for the 2016-17 Aviva Premiership season.
