Ingrid Tarrant hits back in Viagra row

Monday 13th July 2007

Ingrid Tarrant has defended her decision to speak about ex-husband Chris' use of Viagra.

Ingrid recently revealed that the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? presenter suffers from erectile dysfunction, after claims that she had imposed a seven-year sex ban when they married.

Ingrid said:

"I didn't want his Viagra use to be public, but my hand has been forced, like Abi Titmuss's. So now I've said my bit."

"He's had his comeuppance, so to speak."

"I'm not a nun. If I'd gone that long without sex, I'd have asked him if I could have headed off and had some fun myself!"

Ingrid left Chris in last year, after it was revealed that he was cheating on her with schoolteacher Fiona McKechnie.

The couple divorced in February.
