Vanessa Feltz threw herself out of a moving taxi when she found out Ben Ofoedu was cheating on her.
The 62-year-old presenter was devastated when her toyboy fiance Ben, 51, confessed during a taxi journey that he had been cheating and she was so distraught she tried to exit the moving vehicle.
She told The Mirror: "He was spluttering, stuttering, expostulating. I didn't understand because he wasn't making sense.
"I couldn't stand another second. I couldn't bear it. I opened the door of the moving taxi and jumped.
"My coat was torn. Blood was seeping from a cut on my arm. I assumed he would stop the cab and follow to see if I'd survived the leap. He didn't.
"I suppose you could say my entire love life has been a complete abomination, a catastrophe, an absolute car crash. People might think I'm an absolute fool. And if they do, they would not be wrong."
While Vanessa admitted she doesn't enjoy being single, she has no plans to rush into another relationship.
She said: "I’ve been single for 21 months and counting. It's not my happy state.
“But I'm certainly not going to be plunging in with any old renegade who comes along and says they like my eyes.
“I won’t be going ‘Here's my cheque book’, ‘Come and take a kidney, what would you like?’ ‘Please let me give you half my house immediately’. I'm not doing that anymore.
“I'm just not doing that. I've got to have learned something from all of this, haven't I?, and I hope I've learned that anyway.”
