Chantelle Houghton quizzed by police after being caught taking NAKED pics in the woods
CHANTELLE Houghton says she was quizzed by police after being caught taking naked snaps in the woods.
The reality star recalled a time cops swooped on her when she was starkers in the bushes.
Chantelle, 38, said the mortifying moment happened years ago but the embarrasment still stings.
She said: “I wanted to do a competition, it was a Page 3 girl competition.
“And I look back now and the only reason I wanted to do that was because I had a really controlling ex and he was really nasty to me and he made me feel inferior to all of these girls and it was like kind of an ‘I’ll show you’ thing.
“You had to send these pictures into the paper, and I asked my mum to drive me to the woods not far from my house.”
“We had this throwaway camera and my mum is clicking away. Then all of a sudden a police car drives into the park and my mum looked at me and I looked at her.”
“Then the police officer wound down his window and was like ‘can I ask you what is going on, please?”
She added to the Daily Star: “And I was literally dying and standing there with just the bottom half of my underwear on and my mum was like rambling on trying to get the words out and explain.”
