John Terry gave 'secret lover £20k after abortion'

London, January 31 (ANI): John Terry reportedly got his secret mistress pregnant and gave her 20,000 pounds after she underwent abortion at a private clinic in London.

The married ace footballer previously won a High Court gagging order to prevent media from publishing about his alleged affair with Vanessa Perroncel, the former girlfriend of Wayne Bridge, his former Chelsea and current England teammate. But the injunction was overturned later.

The 29-year-old dad-of-two, who married wife Toni in 2007, purportedly organised the abortion for the French model, mother of Bridge's three- year-old son, just weeks into their affair, reports the News of the World.

He was said to have not put pressure on Vanessa and the decision to undergo the procedure was a joint one, sources claimed.

A source said: "The truth is he's gutted his best mate and left his wife devastated while pretending to be a family man. But he's just a low-life cheat." (ANI)
