MYLEENE Klass well and truly set the cat amongst the pigeons when she confessed to catching her ex-husband cheating on her with another female star – and still marrying him anyway.
But WHO?, demanded fans as speculation spread like wild fire across social media. And WHY hasn’t Myleene Klass named and shamed?, demanded others. Well, I know the answer to both.

And were the star to let rip it would veritably implode a showbusiness family – not to mention their lucrative joint brand – and, well, probably see Myleene facing a problematic legal letter.
There is, after all, the age-old question of public interest versus the interest of the public.
The latter, granted, is frothing at the mouth to discover just who this apparent harlot is.
I, of course, am bound by similar legal restraints.
Yet the hypocrisy of this unnamed star is galling. And good on Myleene for calling it out.
The unnamed star has made hundreds of thousands, if not millions, from her image as a wholesome, happily married mum.
To be clear, the woman was single at the time.
She didn’t meet her boyfriend, soon-to-be-husband, sometime after the incident occurred at the former Hear’Say singer’s birthday party.
For the uninitiated, “The Incident”, was described by Myleene in a podcast chat with dating expert Paul C Brunson.
She recalled: “I walked in on him with a famous person on my birthday on a balcony.
“I’m in my house, it’s my party. They weren’t having sex, but they were unzipping each other. ‘It’s not what you think’. It’s the first thing they both said.
“But I’m like, “It is what I think”.
Tellingly, today the two women do not follow one another on Instagram – despite regularly crossing paths.
They also do not make a habit of getting photographed together.
Sensitive pals of Myleene know not to mention the star, aka Voldemort’s, name in her presence.
Graham also furiously denied rumours of an affair, long ago, with an attractive Geordie backing dancer on the X Factor where he worked.
There is no suggestion he cheated.
Yet his popularity with the ladies was openly discussed by judges including Dannii Minogue and Simon Cowell.
“Everyone was discussing it on the show – unfounded gossip was rife,” I’m told.
Despite the red flags – and witnessing his drunken snog – the couple still married, only divorcing in 2013 after 11 years together.
“On the surface Graham was a really attractive, affable guy,” I’m told. “He was well liked but he hurt Myleene a lot.
“They have two children together and Myleene did all she possibly could to raise her daughters and keep things going.
“She was – and remains – utterly stoic.
“She is also one of the nicest women in showbiz and didn’t deserve to see this horrific, soul-crushing incident unfold before her eyes; it is the stuff of Jeremy Kyle nightmares.”
Today there is little love lost between Graham and classical musician Myleene.
Indeed, as Myleene once said: “I married a convicted drug dealer and didn’t sign a pre-nup. What was I thinking?”
And Myleene, now, is circumspect – she is also blissfully happy with her lovely fashion PR exec fiancé, Simon Motson.
I’m told: “Of course Simon knows all about this, and is so supportive of anything Myleene wants to say or do.
“They are so happy together and she really deserves this love story.
“Myleene is one of the real good eggs.”
