'He's a gutless coward': Imogen Thomas's father brands Giggs 'wicked' over 'blackmail' claim

 

Imogen Thomas’s father has branded footballer Ryan Giggs a ‘gutless coward’ after failing to clear her name of blackmail allegations, according to a tabloid.

Charles Thomas, 58, has said that his 28-year-old daughter has never been a ‘planner or a plotter’.

The former Big Brother star was portrayed in court as a blackmailer, suggesting that she asked to be paid by Giggs to keep quiet about their alleged affair.

The legal gag taken out by Giggs forbids Imogen from telling her side of the story.
And her father told The Sun: ‘She is definitely, 100 per cent, not a blackmailer.

‘It is wicked of him not to clear her name over the blackmail allegation made in court. His failure to do that makes him a gutless coward in my opinion.’

  

But despite giving Giggs a piece of his mind, the former rugby player said that he doesn’t blame the Manchester United star for allegedly having a relationship with his daughter.

He added: ‘I can understand it. I was the same at his age. I was playing rugby for the Llanelli Scarlets and, I’ll be honest, there were a lot of women through themselves at me.

‘The temptation was there all the time and I succumbed on many occasions. So I know what it’s like for Ryan Giggs.’

Charles said he doesn’t blame the player for fancying Imogen, but will never forgive him for  not clearing her name of blackmail.

Imogen’s father claims she didn’t tell him about the alleged affair, as she didn’t want to burden him with the information.

But Mr Thomas, who is an education welfare officer for a local authority in Llanelle, Carmarthenshire in Wales, now fears for her health after the scandal hit headlines.

Imogen wrote on her Twitter page early this morning: ‘Cant believe some1 has hacked in2 my Hotmail account & stole a photo of me which is in todays Sun paper. I am livid. Im taking further action.

‘OMG im so angry. FURIOUS. That is my copyright. No body asked for my consent.’
