“They’re fighting and I’m sitting on the end of the bed with a little tub of Pringles eating while she gets carted off by the hotel security and then the police come to the hotel.” Speaking on pal Matt Morgan’s podcast, he added: “They were like, ‘We can only move her outside but she’s still waiting. Do you want us to do anything.’
"I was like, ‘Nah, she’ll be gone in the morning.’ So the security guard stayed outside the hotel room all night.
“In the morning I was having a laugh with my guard going ‘What was all that about?’. He said, ‘She’s in the cafe across the street.’ She was sat in the window doing the same suggestive hand movements.”
