A STUNNING DJ told last night of her secret three-year affair with soccer star Sol Campbell, finally scotching rumours that he is gay. Sassy, who also worked as a model with Jodie Kidd and Linda Evangelista, said: "He has got an incredible body which he is very proud of and he knows how to push the right buttons.
"He`s a very romantic, caring lover who knows what a woman likes."
But Sassy, who earns pounds 1,000 an hour as a hip-hop DJ, revealed that they waited a year before they first made love. The Arsenal star was also paranoid about them being seen together and when they did go out insisted that she always paid half.
Yet when they did make love she made sure he would never forget it.
"I once turned up at Sol`s house clutching a bottle of Cristal champagne wearing nothing but a fake fur coat and sexy knee-length black boots," says Sassy, 25, who was recently voted one of the world`s sexiest women by Maxim magazine.
"I`d been on a modelling assignment in Ireland and I flew all the way back like that. I was getting some odd comments because obviously I couldn`t take my coat off on the plane.
"But it had the desired effect - Sol was absolutely gobsmacked and couldn`t keep his hands off me. I just stood there and let the coat slide off my shoulders in a teasing kind of way.
"He couldn`t believe I was naked underneath the coat and thought all his Christmases had come at once."
She added: "Wherever these gay slurs originated I can tell you once and for all they are definitely not true.
Sassy, real name Saskia Porter, says she has only decided to speak out about her affair with Campbell after she realised that he had also dated beauty queen Tazmin Proctor - the couple have been together on and off for five years.
"I was very shocked and hurt when he admitted he had been dating her for so long," says Sassy. "It explains why he was always so secretive."
But Campbell only had eyes for her when they met five years ago. Sassy was then one of Elite`s top models touring the world on glamour shoots for top fashion houses like Versace.
It was one of her modelling pals who got her a blind date with Sol, 28, who was then captain of Premiership side Tottenham.
She explained: "My friend was dating former Liverpool and Tottenham player John Scales and she said he would bring a friend along to the restaurant.
"When Sol walked in I was a bit disappointed. To be honest I didn`t really fancy him but he seemed like a nice guy. He was quite attentive during the meal and afterwards he walked me to my car - and promptly asked me back to his hotel.
"I told him I wasn`t that sort of girl. Having just come out of a long relationship it was the last thing I wanted.
"But I gave him my number and he inundated me with calls over the next few days. We spoke for hours at a time and found out we had a lot in common."
It was the start of a tumultuous three-year, off-on relationship. But Sassy says it was a whole year before they made love.
She says: "The first time I got into bed with him I slept in my tracksuit bottoms and a T-shirt ,and I made him wear his boxer shorts. The reason was that I didn`t want to tease him because I was not ready for sex.
"But we used to kiss passionately for ages and it was a real turn- on. He was not a selfish lover and he liked to massage and then smother my body with little kisses.
"We enjoyed each other and there was a lot of foreplay. Sol used to compliment me on my body which made me feel good.
"Eventually I started wearing silky tops and bottoms and lovely perfume.
"Although we never made love properly during the first year neither of us found it frustrating as we were able to satisfy each other.
"I`m an old-fashioned girl and despite my modelling and DJ career I`m not into one-night stands. I have to be sure about a man before I sleep with him fully.
"I didn`t just want sex, I wanted to have a connection with him."
Sassy said she would never forget the night when they made love for the first time. "Sol was very sweet and romantic. He ran the bath and set lighted candles all around the bathroom.
"He used to give me the most fabulous massages and we always used to share baths together.
"He has a huge round bath and he loved relaxing in it with a glass of champagne with Dead Sea salts in the water. He used to say they would soak away all the negative energy.
"That night I still felt a bit shy and I got into the tub with my bra and knickers on first. Sol came in and then started undressing in front of me.
"It was the first time I had seen him taking his clothes off knowing what was going to happen and I was embarrassed.
"I needn`t have been because he was the perfect gentleman and took things very slowly. He liked to be in control but it was a very passionate moment and afterwards I knew it was right and thought he was the man for me."
But although Campbell would tell her he loved her he could sometimes be very cold and would not call her for days.
