Married EastEnders actor Shane Richie hit the headlines when he was pictured in a public display of affection with another woman outside the Park Lane Hilton hotel on September 9.

But the mystery blonde, now known to be called Haidie Jago has hit back to deny any wrongdoing in a statement.

She said: 'The recent publication of pictures of Shane Richie and myself taken at the TV Choice Awards – along with the accompanying stories - was misleading, inaccurate and deeply intrusive to both me and my family.

'There was not, and never has been, any sort of personal relationship whatsoever between Mr Richie and myself.

'He was a guest at the awards on September 8 of H Bauer for whom I was hosting a celebrity table.

'After the event I escorted Mr Richie to the car booked for him as our guest.  Like scores of people at this or any award ceremony we parted with a kiss.'

In the pictures, the affable EastEnders star – loved by millions for his role as doting husband Alfie Moon – is seen with his arms around the mystery blonde in the early hours of the morning.

Shane, 50, leans in and kisses his companion on the lips as she wraps an arm around his back before playfully rubbing his head.

The incident took place following a successful night for Shane, after he had helped his EastEnders cast-mates celebrate scooping the award for Best Soap earlier that evening.

Onlookers claim the London born actor ventured outside for a smoke after toasting the win with pals Danny Dyer and Jessie Wallace – his onscreen wife.

One source told The Sun on Sunday that the pair laughed and chatted for 20 minutes adding: 'A few seconds later the blonde came out, looking round for him. She went straight up to him.

'She was running her finger down his chest and into the open collar of his shirt, then ran her fingers through his hair and stroked his head.'

The petite blonde appeared to be familiar with the star and the duo shared a deep conversation.
