ITV Good Morning Britain's Jeremy Kyle fumes at former escort Helen Wood in heated row over Wayne Rooney

Jeremy Kyle and Helen Wood came to loggerheads on Good Morning Britain today, after the former escort revealed she was publishing a tell-all memoir.

In 2009 Helen rose to fame after she claimed to have slept with Wayne Rooney for £1,000, while his wife Coleen was pregnant with their first child.

Helen has now decided to write an autobiography, revealing details of the reported tryst and naming those who she says have 'screwed her over'.

As she appeared on the show promoting her new book, Jeremy and Helen clashed as the talk show host defended his pal Coleen.

Helen said: "The people that I have decided to name in the book are people that screwed me over."

Jeremy replied: "But you've just said you don't want to bring all this back, you are undoubtedly bringing it back."

Helen retorted: "No, how is it bringing it back, it's there all the time for me...This isn't about men bashing, it's about why women do certain things."

Jeremy said: "What, sleep with married footballers?"

Helen said: "Exactly, that was nothing, that was just a blip."

Jeremy later questioned: "I'm asking you what people would want me to ask, would people want you to write a book if you hadn't slept with Wayne Rooney?"

Helen replied: "People are very very quick to judge but aren't interested in understanding why I came about to do this."

Jeremy replied: "But Coleen Rooney hasn't written a book explaining her side of the story."

Wayne's representatives would not comment when approached by GMB.
