Partner of Twink’s ex-husband claims paper portrayed her as a prostitute

THE partner of pantomime star Twink’s ex-husband, David Agnew told the High Court newspaper articles about her family meant she was a whore and her son a bastard.

Ruth Hickey, aged 36, also said she made a formal complaint to the gardaí of harassment by Adele King (Twink) as well as a complaint to the Data Protection Commissioner.

Ms Hickey said although the word “whore” was one reported to have been used by Twink, she believed the paper was portraying her as a prostitute. The use of a headline, Twink’s Ex Shows Off Love Child, meant her child was a bastard, she said.
