Cerys Matthews still smitten with Marc, say pals

FRIENDS of Cerys Matthews say she is still smitten with new love Marc Bannerman despite tales of his alleged drug-fuelled romp with a prostitute.

The former EastEnder hit the headlines last weekend after a £120-an-hour prostitute claimed drugs made him a flop in bed.

Pals feared the kiss-and-tell may have rocked his budding relationship with mum--of-two Cerys.

The allegations came just days after the pair were photographed together at the home of Cerys’ parents in Trefin, Pembrokeshire.

But a close friend of Cerys says the I’m A Celeb lovers are rock solid.

Meriel Murphy, owner of The Ship Inn in Trefin, said: “I haven’t seen them around for a while, but as far as I know they’re still very much an item.”

Meanwhile, police are still investigating a run-in Bannerman, 34, had with a paparazzi photographer in Trefin a week ago. The actor is on bail pending further investigations by Dyfed Powys Police.
