Actress-model Kelly Brook says she punched former lover Danny Cipriani when he gave a stripper his phone number.

Brook split from him in August last year after he allegedly cheated on her.

She has written about her relationship in her autobiography "Up Close", and revealed her reaction to the incident that occurred during a trip to Las Vegas, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

She mentioned how her ex-boyfriend had talked to a stripper at Spearmint Rhino club before excusing himself to the bathroom.

She wrote: "My dance finished, so I decided to go to the loo as well. On the way, I decided to try to find him as he had been gone rather a long time ... I found nothing, so gave up and went to the loo.

"While I was in the cubicle, on the other side of the door the missing lap dancer was chatting to her friend, saying how hot Danny was - and how he'd given her his phone number."

She then confronted Cipriani, and was asked to leave the club.

She continued: "As I headed back to the table, I saw Danny walking towards me. 'Babe,' he said. 'I've been looking for you!' I punched him straight in the face!

"At that point, four bouncers leaped on me. They picked me up like the crazy, drunk, betrayed woman I was.

"I was then carried out of the club in my new cherry-print mini-dress as they held Danny back inside the club," she added.

She is now engaged to David McIntosh.
