British-Pakistani boxer Amir Khan has said that an Asian bridal model, who hurled allegations at him, tried \u201cblackmailing\u201d him and \u201csold\u201d her story to a British tabloid after he refused to pay her \u00a320,000.<\/p>\n

Khan hit back after Asian bridal model Sumaira accused him of cheating on his British-Pakistani wife Faryal Makhdoom by engaging in an explicit conversation with her over several weeks this year.<\/p>\n

The boxer spoke to a private news channel over the phone from his Dubai villa and gave his full version of what actually happened between him and model Sumaira.<\/p>\n

Khan, who is in Dubai with his wife and three children, said that Sumaira had deleted lots of messages and showed only a selected few to The Sun newspaper which carried the original story in which the model made accusations against the boxer.<\/p>\n

The boxer said Sumaira started talking to him on social media and told him she didn\u2019t like her family and was looking away from them. The boxer said he asked her about the tattoos on her body and whether her faith permitted this.<\/p>\n

Sumaira, according to the boxer, started sending her revealing pictures and went on to discuss that she wanted to have enhancement surgeries. Khan said she didn\u2019t ask for any pictures and was not impressed by what the model was sending him.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cAll I replied was that you look good but really that wasn\u2019t something I was impressed by. To be honest it put me off.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked whether he asked the model \u201cI can\u2019t stop looking\u201d, the sports star replied in affirmative saying he did so because she expressed her wish for him to say so as a way of compliment to make her happy.<\/p>\n

\"Former<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish you would say I can\u2019t stop looking so I did. Then she sent a lot more and all I said was it\u2019s nothing I haven\u2019t seen before,\u201d he shared.<\/p>\n

The boxer revealed that Sumaira then asked him for \u00a320,000. When asked why, the boxer said the model told him that she wanted it as she wanted to \u201cfix her hand as one of her hands is bigger due to some problem and she always hides it\u201d.<\/p>\n

The boxer said: \u201cI said I can\u2019t give you any money. Go get a job and it\u2019s wrong if you want money.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Pakistani-origin striker added: \u201cThe reason she went to the paper was I didn\u2019t want to give her money. Her story about her family disowning her did upset me but I knew she\u2019s on the money thing and is a liar. I stopped messaging her.\u201d<\/p>\n

Khan rejected Sumaira\u2019s allegation that he spoke against his wife Faryal Makhdoom or said that their marriage was a business relation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI told her I am happily married. Not once did we speak about me and Faryal being together for the TV show. I think all my followers on socials know we are together and very happy. I reacted to the pictures out of the blue she sent me because I wanted to not upset her. But it wasn\u2019t something you would take a look at twice. I also said to her sort your life out and that you are a Muslim girl. I’m sure your family will help you. She spoke ill about her family and why she didn\u2019t live with them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Khan said Sumaira wanted to meet him and asked him when he was coming to the UK. He said they made no plan of meeting and there was no desire from his side.<\/p>\n

The boxer further said that Sumaira had made up a lot of things to sell the story. He said: \u201cI ended our conversation by telling her that I\u2019m happily married. And yes in all relationships, you have ups and downs but we (Amir and Faryal) are cool in Dubai together with the kids. I feel sorry for people like Sumaira for what they do.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
