Jermaine Jenas' ex-model wife is standing by the axed BBC star as 'multiple women' come forward to make fresh claims about his alleged 'inappropriate behaviour'. 

The former England international is understood to have told his wife of 13 years,Ellie Penfold,about the claims. 

The former model,who describes herself as a 'mummy' and 'wife' on her Instagram bio,is said to be supporting the ex-Premier League footballer,according to The Sun. 

The presenter,41,is said to be 'deeply unhappy' about the allegations after he was fired this week after 'rumours' spread among colleagues about the inappropriate messages. 

A female member of staff claimed she received unsolicited communications via text from Jenas,reports claimed.

Others are now said to have come forward amid the probe into messages allegedly sent by the married ex-footballer,according to The Sun. However,the source added there is 'no suggestion of illegality' on the ex-footballer's part. 

The news of Jenas' sacking came moments before he went live on air on talkSport radio yesterday afternoon,who have now said he will no longer appear on the show in the 'immediate future'.

Jenas and wife Ellie welcomed their fourth child in October 2021 after news of his birth was broken during on the One Show a couple of days earlier

In a conversation with the Belfast Telegraph,Jenas couldn't help but sing praises of his wife: 'She's been a rock keeping the family going through tough times.'

'She actually made me get rid of the car because it was too noisy! She's told me she thought when we first met that I was a bit of an over-confident idiot,but I won her over finally.'

Jenas regularly shares candid pictures of himself and Ellie playing with their children.
