Discussing the holiday to Turkey, Carl told the outlet that Katie got "really drunk" just days into the trip and he caught her trying to send videos to the footballer. Carl, who said he had only been in a relationship with Katie for six weeks by that point, said he "caught" her messaging the footballer as she had tried to send him videos while they were at a bar. He said that she had been "very sloppy" after drinking alcohol and "that's how" he found out.
Carl alleged that prior to that night, he had seen the footballer attempt a video call with Katie but she had declined it. He said that when he "confronted" her she went "wild," running out of the hotel, downstairs and then out of the car park. He said she "didn't mean to do it" but was "running like a lunatic" and "went off the edge," saying: "She ran through the bush and the ground disappeared beneath her." He said that's how she "really did her feet".
Carl said that they spent "all night" in the hospital and that when she sobered up, Katie told him that she didn't think he "liked her" and that it "wouldn't happen again". He told the outlet that it should have been "enough" for him to leave, but he gave her "the benefit of the doubt".
