'You two would be perfect for each other'

Abuser Hogg's new girlfriend hit back at ex Jilly after she reached out over shamed star's behaviour

THE new girlfriend of shamed rugby star Stuart Hogg dismissed concerns about his behaviour in messages sent to his ex.

Former jockey Leonna Mayor hit back at Jilly O'Donnell, the former Scotland captain's secret lover.

Jilly spent three years dating the convicted domestic abuser after they met on Instagram in 2020 and he told her he was separated from his wife, Gillian.

But the pair ended contact when Hogg began a relationship with TV racing pundit Mayor, once dubbed the "world's sexiest jockey".

Mayor and Hogg announced they were together on Instagram while in a spa in Staffordshire last November, days after his Gillian, 37, had given birth to their daughter.
