London, Oct 7 : After it was revealed that former model Katie Price’s lover Alex Reid is a cross-dresser named Roxanne, the cage fighter has come forward to insist that it was just a stupid publicity stunt played by her.

The two are said to have had a massive bust-up after revelation that he loved to wear miniskirts, skimpy tops, suspenders, and high heels.

“He’s really p***** off about it,” the Sun quoted a spokesman for Reid as saying.

But 31-year-old Jordan’s camp has maintained that it was not fabricated, and that she has even named her new dressage horse after his fetish, calling it Jordan’s Cross Dresser

“I understand Alex has dressed up as a woman,” a spokesman for her said.

“Roxanne is the name he uses, like Barry Humphries uses Dame Edna Everage. There’s a shock element to it but Katie lives with it,” he stated.

Reports even claimed that Reid’s role as Roxanne ended his last relationship with his lover of ten years, Marie Thornett.

But Reid’s spokesman has refuted the claims, even though it emerged on October 6 that he once did dress as a girl as part of a lads’ night out at the School Disco club in Hammersmith, West London.

“This is Katie messing around. It looks really sleazy and is incredibly frustrating for Alex,” his spokesman said.

“This has made Alex question what sort of woman he’s with. He feels he’s being used as a pawn in her game to get rich and famous.

“She is off plugging her books everywhere and now she’s making up ludicrous stories about Alex to get even more publicity.

“He doesn’t know how long he can take it,” he added. (ANI)
